2. Description of the system

2.1. Description of the x-ray unit

Description of the parts:
a X-ray generator.
Depending on the operating mode, the high frequency constant po-
tential x-ray generator works at 60KV 7ma (En60 mode, 63KV 6ma
(En63 mode) or 65KV 6ma (En65 mode).
The generator can turn on a horizontal plane endlessly; on the other
hand, as far as vertical movement is concerned, rotation is limited
upwards by a mechanical end-stop.
b Removable cone.
The generator can work with different types of collimators that are
automatically recognized:
• 8" ROUND COLLIMATOR (incorporated in the generator): mini-
mum skin/focus distance 20 cm and 60 mm output beam
• REMOVABLE 12" round CONE: minimum source/skin distance
30cm and diameter of x-ray beam exiting cone 55mm (with cone
attached).
c Focus spot.
d Double pantograph arm.
e Extension arm.
The extension is available in three lengths: 40 cm, 60 cm and 90 cm.
f Handheld.
The handheld can be placed either near the control unit or in a remote
position. As a result, the doctor can move conveniently around the
room and move out of the area where x-rays are emitted.
g Hand held holder.
h Control unit.
i Master switch.

2.2. Operating mode

The x-ray unit can function in different modes (MULTI-MODE technology):
1) En60 operating mode
X-ray emission at 60KV and 7ma. The X-ray unit automatically
calculates the best exposure time (from 0.01s to 1.00s) based on the
selected tooth and patient size.
2) En63 operating mode
X-ray emission at 63KV and 6ma. The X-ray unit automatically
calculates the best exposure time (from 0.01s to 1.00s) based on the
selected tooth and patient size.
3) En65 operating mode
X-ray emission at 65KV and 6ma. The x-ray unit automatically
calculates the best exposure time (from 0.01s to 1.00s) based on the
selected tooth and patient size.
4) AUTO operating mode
The x-ray unit automatically suggests the best operating mode (En60,
En63 o En65) and exposure time (from 0.01s to 1.00s) based on the
selected tooth and patient size.
The suggested exposure time can be corrected from the handheld.
In addition, the x-ray unit has a special USER mode that can be set
by the user. The user can select the best combination of load factors
(operating mode and exposure time) for each tooth and patient size.
