Auxiliary Tube-Temp. Sensor

The auxiliary tube-temp. sensor is a device that protects the x-ray tube from overheating in the event of a failure of the primary flow/temp sensors. The device, which monitors the actual tube housing temperature at the anode, will shut the x-ray system down if the tube exceeds a preset temperature threshold.This development of the system was a result of our tube repair department experiencing a high percentage of overheat failures coming in from the field.The kit contains:

• RTD sensor
• Heat activated epoxy to mount sensor to tube anode
• Alcohol towelette (to clean sensor mounting area)
• Signal wire (from RTD device to meter enclosure)
• AC power wire & 110 plug
• Stand-alone enclosure
• Panel meter w/ LED readout, variable threshold & contact closure outputs
• Technical manuals and information
