3.8 Security Beacons
The ARL EQUINOX 5000/5500 X-Ray diffractometer is equipped with two security beacons
located on the upper right side of the front cover. The orange beacon "X-RAY" indicates that
the X-Ray generator is in operation and emitting X-Ray radiation. The red beacon indicates
that the shutter is opened and the X-Ray radiation is emitted inside of the enclosure.
Additional red LEDs to indicate the state of the shutter are located on the shutter as well (red
LED ON represents an opened shutter).
In case of a malfunction of the safety beacons the voltage of the X-Ray generator will be
limited and/or the shutter will remain closed.
