Warning

Warning to Interface with X-ray Generator

1. Housing Rupture
Never input over-rated power to x-ray tube assembly.
If the input power is extremely higher than specification, it may cause the over temperature of
anode, insert tube glass shatter and ultimately the following serious problems due to generating
over-pressure by oil vaporization inside housing assembly.
In such a critical condition, the safety thermal switch can not protect x-ray tube even if it works.

* Housing sealing parts (cathode side) rupture

* Human injury including burns due to hot oil escape
* Fire accident due to flaming anode target

We strongly request that the x-ray generator should have a protective function which manages
input power to x-ray tube assembly.

 E7252X / E7252FX / E7252GX

Cautions

Caution to Interface with X-ray Generator

1. Over Rating
X-ray tube assembly can be broken with applying just one over rated shot.
Please read the technical data sheets carefully and follow the instructions.

2. Inherent Filtration
The total filtration and the distance between x-ray focal spot and human body are regulated legally.
They should be complied with the regulation.

3. Safety Thermal Switch

X-ray tube assembly has safety thermal switch to prohibit further input power when the tube
housing reaches to the specified temperature.
The switch should be hooked up with the x-ray generator which control output power to x-ray tube
assembly.
Even if the switch works, never turn the system power off and the cooling unit should be activated.

4. Unexpected Malfunction
X-ray tube assembly may have the risk to be unexpectedly malfunctioning due to life termination or
failure. If the serious problem caused by the above risk is expected, we recommend to have a
contingency plan to avoid such a case.

5. New Application
If you use the product with new application not to be mentioned in this specification or with different
type of x-ray generator, please contact to us for confirming its availability.

Caution for Installation, Adjustment and Maintenance

1. Qualified Persons
Only qualified persons who have technical training and professional knowledge can handle x-ray
tube assembly.

2. Fragile Glass
X-ray tube is assembled with glass, therefore, it can be broken with the mechanical vibration or
pulsed shock over 19.6m/s2 (2G).
Careful handling is required to treat or transport.

3. Ground Terminal
X-ray tube assembly has ground terminal. Ground cable should be connected.

4. High Voltage
All x-ray tubes operate at voltages high enough to kill through electrical shock. Never touch the
high voltage delivered plugs or terminals.
When direct access to such parts is required, the primary circuit should be disabled and high
voltage capacitors/cables discharged.

5. High Voltage Plug

High voltage plug should be cleaned up and free from any physical damages. Silicon compound
application is required for high voltage stability.

6. Operation Atmosphere
X-ray tube assembly is not allowed to use in the atmosphere of flammable or corrosive gas.

7. Protective Cover
X-ray tube assembly is not allowed to use without the protective cover attached.

8. Handling
Appropriate jig or tools are required for tube installation to avoid physical damages.

9. Returning Tube
X-ray tube assembly should be repackaged with the original material when it is returned back for
quality examination in our factory.
Be careful to put the tube upside cathode. If the packaging is not proper, the tube may not be
correctly examined.

 E7252X / E7252FX / E7252GX

Caution in Operation

1. X-Ray Radiation
X-ray tube assembly should have the beam limiting equipment mounted on the x-ray port to protect
unnecessary radiation.

2. Dielectric Oil
X-ray tube assembly has dielectric oil contained for high voltage stability. As it is poisonous for
human health, if it is exposed to the non-restricted area, it should be disposed as following to the
local regulation.

3. Operation Atmosphere
X-ray tube assembly is not allowed to use in the atmosphere of flammable or corrosive gas.

4. Lead Disposition
X-ray tube housing is lined with lead to protect unnecessary radiation. As the lead powder or vapor
is harmful for human health, it should be disposed as following to the local regulation or returned
back to us with your cost of transportation. We dispose it in our facility with free of charge.

5. Safety Thermal Switch

X-ray tube has thermal switch to protect over heat on housing. As the housing temperature goes up
to maximum 85℃, never touch on housing surface in operation.

6. Any Malfunction
Please contact to your system service person immediately, if any malfunction is noticed.
