Catalog excerpts

The Linatron® M™ is a modular system. The control console, modulator, and RF unit are common to all model configurations. Only the X-ray head changes to match the application. The Linatron - M is designed to fit mobile, gantry, and fixed installations. 1.0 Standard Equipment and Services 1.1 Control Console The standard control console is a touch screen display system. 2.1 X-ray Beam Quality 1.2 X-ray Head Low Leakage (0.1%) The X-ray beam quality is derived from a compilation of broad beam data measurements. 1.3 Modulator/Power Distribution Cabinet External signal interface. 1.4 Temperature Control Unit (TCU) The TCU is used to keep the system components at a nominal 30°C (86°F). It is available in high voltage and low voltage configurations for environments ranging from -40/+55°C (-40/131°F), condensing. 1.5 Standard Spare Parts Kit The spare parts kit includes items such as PCBAs and individual components. 1.6 Interconnecting cables and hoses included with lengths up to 100 meters. 1.7 Manuals Operator Manuals are included in English. 1.8 Installation Supervision and Startup * Radiographic Optimization available. 1.9 One Year Warranty Service includes inclusive parts and labor up to one year. 2.2 X-ray Beam Dose Rate* (10 cm x 10 cm field) the maximum continuous dose rate at 1 meter is listed in Table 1 (without flattening filter) at Beam Centerline. Dose rate is reduced with flattening filter. 2.3 X-ray Field Size A 30° cone or 22.5° square defines the field. Also see section 4.1. Custom collimators are available upon request. 2.4 X-ray Beam Focal Spot Size The focal spot size does not exceed 2.0 mm in diameter. Smaller spot sizes are available at reduced dose output. 2.5 X-ray Beam Symmetry The beam asymmetry does not exceed 5% at ±7.5° off the central axis for all energies.

2.6 Standard Leakage Radiation The leakage radiation is specified along the horizontal plane at 1 meter from the beam centerline at angles 60° and greater, outside the primary beam. The values are a fraction of the primary beam central axis dose rate measured with a 10 cm x 10 cm collimator; 1x10-3. Leakage radiation does not include primary beam scatter. See section 4.2 for lower leakage options. 3.0 Customer Facility Requirements 3.1 Electrical Requirements The Linatron M operates from a single 15 kVA 50/60 Hz power source. Two voltage ranges are available. 3.1.1 Low Voltage Option...

The dual energy specifications are given in Table 3. Select two operating energies: 4.6 Laser Alignment System An internally mounted single spot laser is available to align the X-ray beam to an object being radiographed. Not available with ULLP leakage option. ULLP shielding option is unavailable with the laser option. Laser is 533 nm, Class II, 0.5 mW. 4.7 Variable External Collimator The dependent jaw variable external collimator mounts to the front of the X-ray head. The field size varies between 1° and 24°. A rotating version is available that rotates over a range from -50° to +50°....
