Fully-featured, microprocessor-controlled apparatus with molybdenum X-ray tube and goniometer designed for conducting a wide variety of experiments in X-ray physics. The high-voltage system, X-ray tube and experiment chamber are all contained within a radiation-proof housing. Designed as a school X-ray apparatus and fully protected equipment. The type approval is also valid for additional X-ray tubes (Fe, Cu, Ag, W, Au). The X-ray tubes are supplied already fully adjusted so that they can be easily interchanged. Utmost safety and operational comfort is ensured by automatic door locking, which unlocks the doors automatically, when no x-ray radiation is being generated.
Two large displays show all relevant information concerning the current experiment. The tube voltage and tube current can be set within the ranges 0 to 35 kV and 0 to 1 mA respectively. The built-in rate meter including enables direct measurement in conjunction with a Geiger-Müller counter tube. The X-ray apparatus can also be connected to a PC via the USB port (software included) for recording Bragg spectra. Alternatively, the two analogue outputs (counting rate and angular position) permit data acquisition using a chart recorder.
The goniometer (
554 831) enables precise setting of any angular position of the sensor and the target as well as coupled 2:1 sensor and target motion, both manual and automatic angular scans are possible.
Two screened coaxial lead-ins and one free access duct provide access to the experiment chamber, e.g. for connecting an x-ray energy detector.
Device fully assembled and adjusted, ready for operation.
