Exposure Switch and Exposure Time Ofor X Ray
Exposure Switch and Exposure Time Ofor X Ray
Switching locations
primary switching
– primary side of high tension transformer
secondary switching
– between rectifiers & x-ray tube
Mechanical contactors
The simplest x-ray switches are
mechanical contactors
– They are usually opened and closed by
electromagnets that are activated the
exposure timer.
– They are always connected to the low voltage
(primary) side of the high voltage circuit and
perform satisfactory with high currents and
longer exposure times.
