SITE-XS Crawler Models

SITEXS, THE ‘EXTRA-SMALL’…

               The C2503 ‘XS’ X-ray tube for crawlers is unique to the market as it delivers up to 250 kV within an 8’’ diameter. Furthermore, it enables the inspection of pipelines from 10’’ to 32’’. In addition and to provide you with compactness, a special crawler control unit has been developed for the SITEXS. The CCU187 is designed to be mounted directly on the tubehead within the same diameter.

A SIMPLE & EFFECTIVE PRINCIPLE

            All SITEX and SITEXS units contain a rod anode. This is the focal spot that is outside the SF6-insulated high-voltage generator. As maximum advantages are derived from this ideal configuration, for one and the same thickness, the volume of lead required for standard radiation protection is considerably reduced.
           Consequently, the reduced weight that is achieved makes it possible for further investments to be made in the quality and general improvement of the level of performance (robustness, cooling, accessories etc).
          We can confirm that SITEX and SITEXS are among the lightest portable X-ray generators available to the market.

PERFORMANCE

             A high-efficiency heat exchanger has been developed in collaboration with the Institute of Thermo-mechanics at the University of Liege. This results in the possibility of a 100% working cycle under completely safe conditions, whilst simultaneously reducing the anode temperature by 50%.

ENSURING PERFECT HOMOGENEITY

                The SITEX and SITEXS panoramic X-ray tubes come equipped with a patented automatic system of beam correction. Perfect homogeneity is ensured thanks to a real time feedback loop adjustment and the EMR value achieved on the films is < 5%.
