XRV R24 and R28 HV Cables Overview:
The X-ray tube and the XRV Generator uses a specific type of
receptacle for the high voltage connection. The receptacles
mate with an R24 or R28 high voltage cable. The R24 Cable is for
systems with an output voltage of 160kV or less while the R28
Cable are designed for systems with voltages as high as 225kV.
The conical shaped cable plugs ,designed to reduce voltage
stress on the connections use silicone grease to fill any air voids
and avoid high voltage arcing. The cables are available in
various lengths, straight or right angle spring and non-spring
loaded connectors. Flanges are specially designed to apply the
right amount of contact force and keep the connector securely in place. A special gapping tool adjusts
the flange to cable well spacing making sure the male conical connector is the correct length for the
cable well depth. Typical Cables and Flanges are shown below.
