XRS4

The XRS4 is a lightweight, portable X-ray generator based on Pulsed X-ray technology. It generates a high intensity X-ray burst (pulse) in a very short period of time. The output dose of each pulse is 4.0 – 8.5 mR measured 12 inches from the front of the X-ray generator. The operator varies the overall dose of each exposure by changing the pulse setting. The pulse rate varies from 9 pulses per second. The generators can fire up to 200 pulses before a four-minute rest period. Pulsed technology generates high output voltage using minimal input voltage. The result is extremely small single package generators with significant penetrating capability. Minimal side and rear X-ray leakage means the operator safety stand-off distance is 20 feet (6 m) behind the unit. The generators contain no radioactive material. Radiation is only emitted from the generator while it is pulsing. The single package design eliminates the need for connecting cables between tube head, control module, and power supply. The Golden Engineering cold cathode tube requires no warm up and one input variable (pulse setting) simplifies the operating process. Golden Engineering pulsed generators are compatible with most digital imaging systems.
