3.3 X-RAY TUBE CONNECTION
3.3.1 STATOR CABLE
X-ray Tubes are equipped with the Stator cable installed.
A LV-DRAC (Low Voltage - Digital Rotatory Anode Controller) is required for
High Speed X-ray Tubes. Connections between LV-DRAC and Power Module
are factory made.
Route the Stator cable together with the HV cables to the Generator Cabinet.
Connect the Stator cable terminals to the indicated Terminal Block TS2:
TERMINAL TS2
ST
TOR WIRES
TUBE-1 TUBE-2
MAIN TS2-1 TS2-9
AUX (Shift) TS2-2 TS2-10
COMMON TS2-3 TS2-11
Terminal Block TS2 may be marked as 10TS2 or 11TS2
depending on the Generator model.
For Philips or Siemens X-ray Tubes refer to Interconnection Maps
I/F-021 or I/F-024.
IN GENERATORS EQUIPPED WITH LV-DRAC: THE LV-DRAC
OUTPUT CAN BE AS HIGH AS 1000 Vrms. FOR SAFETY
REASONS (TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCKS), THE STATOR
CABLE MUST BE SHIELDED AND BOTH ENDS OF THE
SHIELD MUST BE CONNECTED TO GROUND.
DUE TO ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMC)
PROBLEMS, THE IGBT’s HEATSINK IS NOT GROUNDED. IT
IS CONNECTED TO THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL OF THE
INPUT RECTIFIER. TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, BE SURE
THAT THE INPUT LINE IS DISCONNECTED AND THE
CAPACITOR BANK IS PROPERLY DISCHARGED BEFORE
MANIPULATING THE LV -DRAC.
MAKE SURE THAT STATOR WIRES ARE PROPERLY
CONNECTED. BEFORE MAKING ANY EXPOSURE, CHECK
THAT THE ANODE ROTATES CORRECTLY.
