EPS 45-80 High-Voltage Generator
1-4
Technical Manual P/N 9894.00.G6
Workstations : Up to 6 workstations, depending on EPS configuration.
X-ray tube
: One dual focal spot X-ray tube. Two-Tube option available.
Anode drive : Integrated Low or Dual Speed Rotor Controller. See options in § 1.1.3.
APR exams
: Programmable technique chart consisting of up to 2000 fully customizable
exams, stored in the
Epsilon
Operator Console. Every single step on the APR program
leads to a new set of parameters, every time more fitted with the intended exam. This
reduces the number of key strokes.
The APR can be programmed to behave as a traditional APR with 7 regions per workstation,
8-10 exams per region and up to 4 patient sizes.
AEC mode
: Ion chamber, photomultiplier tube, photodiode or flat panel.
Fluoro
: On RF & CV configurations:
•
Continuous, Pulsed Fluoro and optional High Performance Pulsed Fluoro available;
Dual Fluoro
mode available (Continuous & Pulsed Fluoro switchable at the console)
•
Two (2) adjustable maximum Fluoro Entrance Rates;
•
Four (4) programmable kV/mA tracking curves for ABS control;
•
Standard
Pulsed Fluoro
@ up to 30 pulses/second;
•
Optional
High Performance Pulsed Fluoro
:
o
Image Enhancement mode, providing better signal-to-noise ratio;
o
Dose Reduction mode;
o
Optional Source to Patient Distance (SPD) Integrator
The generator adjusts the X-ray beam to compensate for the source-to-patient
distance (SPD) when the gantry position varies during an exam. This provides
constant surface dose along the full SPD span [mAs/pulse
∝
(1/SPD)
2
].
o
Optional Cable Discharge Unit (see options in § 1.1.2 for description);
o
Optional High Frame Rate, up to 90 pulses/second.
