Abstract
Discharge module which is formed by three circuits, a control and measurement circuit for X-rays, a voltage division circuit between serial switches, which is independent from the previous one, and a third circuit of the charge short circuit, which in turn is formed by a successive or slave trip circuit of the switches and another main discharge circuit through the switches; due to the established configuration, a much improved radiation control is achieved as it is not affected by unforeseen agents, the short circuit current is not restricted to the port current of the switches, and residual voltage of the switches is reduced.
Claims4
Discharge module for high voltage cables of X-ray tubes characterised in that it comprises three independent circuits:
- A control circuit (1) and measurement of X-rays and through which the IRx, current circulates.
- A circuit (2) which is a voltage division circuit between the switches (7), through which the ILK circulates.
- A circuit (3) which is a short circuit of the charge formed by the X-ray tube (6) and the high voltage capacities (8).
