Ultra-light X-Ray generators
Specifications
Constant Potential Portable X-ray generators
Thanks to its cutting-edge SITEX CPSERIES, ICM has now really taken the portable CP technology to the next level. Featuring unprecedented ease, it successfully covers a broad spectrum of NDT applications. Whether it is high-contrast radiographies of light alloy aviation parts or thick steel pipeline inspections in the harshest and most extreme environments, this is your solution.
BEST DESIGN EVER
ICM’s CPSERIES has been designed to revolutionize the handling and the performances of portable x-ray sets. Despite of having halved the weight of similar portable X-ray generators available on the market (with the same power output), the generators of the SITEX CPSERIES contain a shutter, a laser pointer, a beryllium window, an aluminum filter and two integrated diaphragms (customized sizes available on request). Without compromising ICM’s robustness and reliability, the small size and light weight of the SITEX CPSERIES will radically change the way that you perform your RT inspections, impacting positively in terms of both quality and return on investment (ROI).
PERFORMANCES
While the SITEX CP200D & CP320D weigh respectively just 12 & 23 kg, they are still extremely powerful and capable to penetrate 42 mm of steel for the CP200D and 70 mm for the CP320D, all in 10 minutes. ICM’s unexcelled air cooling system combined with the CP output means a 100% duty cycle at 30°C ambient temperature. Meanwhile, its broad input power range (from 90 to 264 VAC) enables the SITEX CPSERIES to be operated on virtually any grid in the world and generator sets. Finally, its low power consumption will ensure that your inspections are more environmentally friendly.
AND THERE’S MORE…
The SITEX CPSERIES is setting new standards in terms of both handling and operating cost. It comes equipped with a number of intuitive yet exclusive userfriendly functions and characteristics that you can benefit from every day.
Furthermore, our exposure time computing software can be fed with your own exposure charts, ensuring improved accuracy, specific applications and any type of materials. The POWERBOX control unit detects the positioning of the carrousel in order to avoid shooting through the shutter by mistake. Additional outstanding features include V-shaped hand rings, constant power mode, radial or axial socket position, custom-length interconnecting cables (up to 100 m), a low voltage DC fan with variable speed, and much more.

POWERBOX for SITE-X: The new CP control unit
EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCES
ICM has designed the first ever ‘Plug & Play’ control unit for X-ray portables.
Light yet robust, it offers a multi-working positions handle and a highly intuitive multilingual menu. Furthermore, it is shockproof, safe and reliable, even in harsh cold, warm and dusty environments.
Its broader power range (from 90V to 264 VAC) voltage selector free means that this small and robust control unit will operate from practically any mains power network worldwide. Alternatively, its 0.99 power factor means it can operate from any of the most commonly used light and low power generating sets available on the market. Indeed, it will even be possible for the POWERBOX to take its energy from a car battery by simply using a small additional DC/AC converter.
