Installing the Detector System
5.1. Carrying
The detector head has four transport hooks, which have to be used for lifting the detector head. For
tilting/rotating the detector head, two hooks can be used: Lift the detector head up so it hangs diagonally,
then set it down towards the other side.
Only use an appropriate lifting device with a carrying capacity of at least 1000 kg.
Make sure 2 persons always move the detector head.
When using the transport hooks, make sure they are properly tightened.
When moving the detector head, make sure all cables and hoses are disconnected.
The detector electronics has a transport hook, which has to be used for lifting the detector electronics.
Only use an appropriate lifting device with a carrying capacity of at least 100 kg.
Make sure 2 persons always move the detector electronics.
When using the transport hook, make sure it is properly tightened.
When moving the detector electronics, make sure that all cables are disconnected.
5.2. Mounting of the Detector Head
Install the Mylar
®
window inside the beamline sample chamber before mounting the detector head.
Do not touch the Mylar
®
foil. Contact DECTRIS support in case of contamination of the window.
With the blank flange still attached rotate the detector head so the x-ray sensor points downward (see
above how to rotate). Remove the blank flange and mount the detector head on top of the sample
chamber.
Remove the blank flange in a clean, dust-free and humidity-controlled environment. Minimize the
time the sensors are exposed without protection.
BE VERY CAREFUL when installing the detector head or the blank flange and avoid touching the
sensor under all circumstances, as this will most likely result in a damaged sensor. Make sure the blank
flange does not tilt inward through the opening at any time. Stay clear of the detector head volume with
any kind of object (screw-
driver, finger, …). This operation is restricted to trained personnel. Damage
caused by improper handling is not covered in the warranty.
After installation immediately flush the chamber with dry air or pump down the system to keep
humidity as low as possible.
