  • Page 23: Cooling Fan

    3.1.6 C OOLING FAN The main cooling fan is a very high-power fan providing the required cooling to the CP SERIES generator’s anode. Due to the high speed and high air displacement volume when the fan is working at maximum speed, a siren-like sound will be generated.
  • Page 24: Powermodule

    The PowerModule converts a 380Vdc power supplied by the PowerBox into a signal that will generate the requested kV and mA in the CP SERIES generator. This PowerModule is a standard component and is identical for all Site-X CP generators. It can easily be replaced, and no further configuration or calibration is required, even on site.

  • Page 29 User Manual CP Series Version 3.1 – June 2020 RS 422 PORT This port has the same function that the USB slave port but using RS422 protocol. The RS 422 connection is made through an HIROSE HR10-7R-6S(73) connector on the Power Box. You may want to use HIROSE HR10-7P-6P connector on the connection cable side.
  • Page 30: Operation

    The CP SERIES X-ray generator produces ultra-high voltage internally. For the electrical safety shut-off devices to operate optimally in the event of failure or an accident, it is essential that the CP SERIES generator or PowerBox are effectively connected to an earth of low impedance (< 10 Ohm).
  • Page 31: Various General Precautions To Be Observed

    1. Only authorized personnel shall use the CP SERIES generator set. 2. Take care that the CP SERIES generator is never used with a supply voltage exceeding 264VAC. 3. Make sure that you ALWAYS work with the equipment well earthen. Check this if in doubt.
