Measurement Base of Technique Factors
The kV is measured during pre-pot testing using a calibrated high voltage divider with a
guaranteed accuracy of ±2%. Final performance measurements are made using a NERO
mAx model 8000 X-ray meter from Victoreen. Tube current (mA) is sensed across a series
connected resistor with an accuracy of ±1% and measured using a digital multimeter,
prior to encapsulation; the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 has no provision for external
measurement of beam current after final manufacture. Exposure time is measured
during the entire exposure, references to 75% rise/fall, using the NERO mAx model 8000
X-ray meter.

Overall deviation of the air kerma from the values shown does not exceed 40%. The exit
field size at the end of the collimator cone (20 cm from the focal spot) is 6 cm. Therefore,
