IMPORTANT NOTE
FOR X-RAY TUBE SEASONING
The seasoning procedure should be carried out to assure a correct operation of the
X-ray Tube when it is putting into operation for the first time (new X-ray Tubes). This
action establishes a favorable distributio n of the electrical charges and electrostatic
stresses in the insulatio n system of the t ub e and the associated equipment.
Included in each X-ray Tube, th e manufacturer gives the in structions to perform the
Tube season in g . It is mandatory to follow these instructions, calibrating previously
the combinations o f kV / mA stations required for carrying out the seaso n ing
procedure. (Refer to Calibration document for calibration of kV / mA combinations).
A correct seasoning will assure th e most accurate calib ration of the Generator
(Filament Current Numbers) and a subsequent trouble-free operation.
