2.0 to 3.0 mg/cm² 

 

Operating voltage: 

500 V 

 Connection: 

BNC 

 

Cable length: 

1 m 

 

Dimensions: 

57 mm x 22 mm dia. 

 

10. Ratemeter 

 

 

U19203 

The ratemeter counts pulses from a counter tube 
and measures emitter current in an X-ray tube. In 
conjunction with a digital display with an adjust-
able threshold (U18620), the output signals, 
counter tube voltage, pulse rates and current can 
all be displayed directly. 

Current measuring input: Jack socket 

0 to 200 

μ

Ratemeter meas. range:   

0-2,000 pulses/s 

  

0-20,000 

pulses/s 

Trigger times: 

 

3 s, 15 s, 30 s, 60 s 

 

11. Digital display with adjustable threshold U18620 

This digital display with adjustable threshold is 
intended for immediate use with the ratemeter 
(U19203). It has four input channels and the up-
per and lower limits for these can be signalled 
audibly.  

Display: 

 

3½ digits, 12.5 mm high 

Dimensions  : 

105 mm x 76 mm 

 

 

8. Operation 

8.1 Checking radiation protection equipment 

Every time the X-ray apparatus is used, you should 
check in advance that the equipment relating to 
radiation protection is functioning correctly. This 
check should be conducted in the sequence that 
follows. In the event of any of these steps revealing a 
problem, the equipment must immediately be un-
plugged from the mains. If the problem cannot be 
eliminated by following the suggestions listed in 
Section 10, the X-ray apparatus will need to be re-
paired by the manufacturer. Only if this safety check 
is completed successfully may the X-ray equipment 
be used. 

 

Check the cover for damage. 

 

Check that the screening plate with the radiation 
sign is firmly secured.
