Page 19: Connectors
See DELL owner’s manual for further details. 4.3. Thermal Stabilization Unit A thermal stabilization unit is required for the operation of the EIGER2 X 500K detector system. The hoses and the detector are equipped with self-sealing valves to avoid dripping when connecting or disconnecting the tubes. -
Page 20: In-Vacuum Operation
Vacuum compatibility can be provided as an option. For in-vacuum operation unscrew the self-sealing valves from the detector and use vacuum-compatible fittings and o-rings. The water connectors use an 1/8 inch ISO parallel thread. Before opening the cooling circuit always remove the coolant to avoid dripping. EIGER2 X 500K Technical Specifications v1.5.0 15 | 24... - Page 21 30 min. Prior to powering up and operating the detector in-vacuum the thermal stabilization unit has to be set to a temperature of 17 C for at least 30 min. ◦ EIGER2 X 500K Technical Specifications v1.5.0 16 | 24...

Page 22: Installing The Detector System Transport Considerations
(see section 3.3). The EIGER2 X 500K detector has to be connected to a dry air (or nitrogen) source to avoid humidity and condensation damage when it is outside of the storage box. For information on system connections, refer to the section 4.1.5 and for storage of the detector system refer to the section 7.5. -
Page 23: In-Vacuum Use
• Use only the supplied hose couplings. The EIGER2 X 500K detector is water-cooled and must be connected to a dedicated thermal stabilization unit. The detector is supplied with quick coupling connectors to connect the cooling tubes to the thermal stabilization unit. An optional 90°... -

5.6. Mounting the Detector Control Unit Caution Make sure that the detector control unit has adequate ventilation. The detector control unit can be mounted in a standard 19 inch rack, which has to be properly grounded. EIGER2 X 500K Technical Specifications v1.5.0 19 | 24... -
Page 25: Temperature And Humidity Control
6. TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY CONTROL The EIGER2 X 500K detector has a combined temperature and humidity sensor. The temperature and humidity control shuts down the detector when the humidity or the temperature of the sensor exceeds the following limits: Table 6.1: Temperature and Humidity Limits... -
Page 26: Operation Procedure
• Do not remove the nitrogen/dry air connection. It is a requirement that it is left at the recommended flow rate according to section 5.4. Warning As long as the detector power cable is connected, the detector has to be considered under power. EIGER2 X 500K Technical Specifications v1.5.0 21 | 24... -
Page 27: Vacuum Operation
7.4. Vacuum Operation DECTRIS detectors can be provided for vacuum operation. The typical reachable vacuum is 10 mbar (read-out elec- tronics in vacuum) or 10 mbar (only detector head in vacuum). The outgassing rate and content are not specified. The vacuum compatibility option guarantees that the detector will operate in the mentioned vacuum range. - Page 28 7.6. Cleaning and Maintenance Caution ® The Mylar foil must not be touched or cleaned. If it is damaged, please contact DECTRIS technical support. The housing can be cleaned with a soft tissue. The EIGER2 X 500K detector does not require any maintenance.
- Page 29 8.1 provides an overview of possible problems with the detector system and instructions in order to solve the problems. If the problem you are experiencing is not listed below or if the instructions do not help, please contact support@dectris.com.
