BASTION Series X-Ray Units

The “BASTION” series X-ray units are designed for radiography at stationary conditions and for use with X-ray TV systems. They are developed on the basis of the latest achievements in the field of high-voltage engineering.

 These units are provided with metal-ceramic X-ray tubes manufactured by the Swiss company “COMET”.

 The high-voltage generator is designed in a metal cylindrical body. On the one end the body is equipped with a high-voltage socket for connecting with the high-voltage cable. On the other end an oil compensator and a low-voltage connector are fixed. The generator is filled with transformer oil under vacuum. The oil is an insulating medium and heat carrier. 

 Current and voltage instability makes no more than 0,05 % per hour for shorttime exposure and 0,1 % – for long-time exposure.

 The Power and Control block (PCB) consists of functional devices both with power electronics and microprocessor control. The devices are mounted on printed-circuit boards and collected in rectangular box with the integrated fan. In the standard complete set the PCB design provides its wall-mounted installation.

 The length of the high-voltage cable can be 5, 10, 15, 20 m, etc. according to the customer requirements.

 Operation of the device is carried out from a remote PC according to the standard interface (RS-232 or RS-485). However, it can be replaced by the portable remote control unit with liquid-crystal display delivered at the customer’s request.

The unit has automated self-diagnostics and X-ray tube training routines as well as all necessary electronic protection circuits ensuring its reliable operation.
