Description
It fully controls the high voltage X-ray source power supply XRHV01-PS via analogue interface 0 – 5V, so the user can see the high voltage and emission current on the XR40B-EC display. The XR40B-EC displayed emission current is the exact emission current (corrected by the water leakage current of the cooling system). This combination allows very convenient and stable control of the X-ray source. The XR40B-EC controller has several interlocks: master interlock, two X-ray tube cover interlocks, high vacuum interlock, cooling water interlock and remote interlock to fully protect both the user and X-ray source. If any interlock condition is not meet the source is disabled. Two operating modes, Standby and Operate, guarantee the most accurate and stable emission immediately after starting an experiment. Easy firmware update via USB port. Unit can be remotely controlled via RS232/485 or Ethernet interfaces. Autosave function (XR40B-EC unit) for saving your parameters/unit preset and applying them automatically after restart.
Capability to operate up to two X-ray sources.
Note
If any interlock condition is not met, the source cannot be powered on. In addition to these three interlocked safety mechanisms, water leakage current is continuously monitored.
