4.2 Identification
4.4 Filtration
The permanent filtration of the X-ray tube assembly is 2.5 mm Al/75 kV IEC 60522/1999.
An additional filter plate of 1.7 mm Al is part of permanent filtration.
The identification label of the X-ray tube assembly shows the permanent filtration value.
Collimation near the focus is effected by a lead aperture plate which depends upon the
X-ray tube installed since the anode angles of the different X-ray tubes may vary. This lead
plate reduces scattered radiation.
The adjustment of the leaf spring is adapted to the oil fill level of each individual X-Ray
tube.
5 INSTALLATION
5.1.2 Collimator
The universal spacing plates are located at the X-ray port of the collimator. The universal
spacing plates are already adjusted by the factory.
CMT_013/014
For installation of the coupling flange of the collimator to the X-ray window flange the ap-
propriate screw length has to be determined:
• Insert a fixing screw into the parts to be fixed without screwing the fixing screw in.
CMT_120
• Measure the remaining engagement length between the top of the fixing screw and the
top of the countersunk washer = EL.

• Measure the remaining engagement length between the top of the fixing screw and the
top of the countersunk washer = EL.
In case the engagement length falls below the minimum or exceeds the maximum use oth-
er fixing screws. But make sure to maintain the minimum engagement length of 6 mm as
well as the maximum engagement length of 10 mm.
• Disperse locking liquid LOCTITE #243 along the whole threaded shank of the fixing
screws.
• Install the coupling flange of the collimator to the X-ray window flange.
The alignment of the collimator is described in the installation instructions of the system.
Risk of a damage of the X-ray tube assembly because of burned and damaged con-
tact surfaces.
• Use new silicone disks each time you connect or connect back a HV plug to a HV socket.
• Use new silicone disks each time you install and replace an X-ray tube assembly.
• Do not use silicon disks again even after you clean and grease the silicon disks again.
Failure to obey could result in property damage.
IMPORTANT
Silicone paste is not a good insulator.
Use the silicone paste to
- make the HV plug installation into the ceramic HV socket easy.
- keep the entrapped air to a minimum.

6 SETTING-TO-WORK
Setting-to-work includes:
– Software and hardware programming for the X-ray tube type.
– Adaptation of the filament.
– Conditioning of the X-ray tube.
• Do the conditioning procedure for each new connected X-ray tube assembly.
• Obey the intervals between exposures.
• Use a watch to monitor the intervals.
• Do the conditioning procedure with the large focal spot only.
The first exposure of each day does not require warming up.
For operating breaks of more than 3 months, an exposure-series have to be made with the
specified kV and mAs values as given in the table below.
The generator must be in READY state, i.e. the green LED on the desk must be lit. Pay at-
tention that the READY state conditions are met.
Every exposure sequence must always be performed at the respective selected kV level
without repeating the start-up procedure of the X-ray tube. The PREP button must remain
to be pressed during the whole exposure sequence.
Conditioning procedure
• Switch ON the system.
• Select the large focal spot of the X-ray tube.
• Select 2-button-technique "kV-mAs".
Choose kV-mAs-values at the system corresponding the first exposure sequence.
See table below.
*) Given values depend on the generator. They may be slightly different.
• Release exposures sequences. See table below.
If electrical interferences occur during the conditioning procedure, obey the following
steps:
• Continue the procedure after an interval of 5 minutes.
• Restart the procedure at a lower kV level.
