Small power supply meets X-ray needs
The XRG70 is supplied from a 24V DC rail and provides up to 60kV for the X-ray tube anode with a maximum current of 1.2mA.
HiTek Power's XRG70 is a 72W X-ray generator power supply module for grounded-cathode tubes that incorporates the high voltage and filament power supply stages and all necessary beam control circuitry Measuring 204 x 73 x 127mm, the new unit is the smallest in the market for its power capabilities

High stability from X-ray generators
HiTek Power has introduced the XR4K family of X-ray generators, intended for applications in analytical X-ray systems, fluorescence (XRF) and diffraction (XRD) and food industry inspection.
It is available with an optional interface to enable full control via RS232.
The XRG70 is supplied from a 24V DC rail and provides up to 60kV for the X-ray tube anode with a maximum current of 1.2mA.
It also provides a low-voltage output for the X-ray tube filament, with a current of up to 3.5A and a maximum voltage of 5.5V.
High levels of remote control and monitoring allow X-ray systems to be controlled more finely and meet the need to protect ever-more-expensive tubes.
The new unit has been designed to offer high stability and low ripple.
Ripple on the high voltage output is less than 0.05% +10V peak-to-peak.
Load regulation for voltage is less than 0.01% +/-1V from no load to full load, while for beam current it is less than +/-2uA.
Stability is +/-0.1% over an eight-hour period after a 30-minutes warm up.
Control and monitoring is via a 15-way D-type connector, front-panel potentiometers and an optional RS232C interface.
It includes control of on/off, high voltage output, maximum and standby filament currents and monitoring of high-voltage output and beam and filament currents.
