(Main)Non-destructive testing - Measurement and evaluation of the X-ray tube voltage - Part 1: Voltage divider method
Non-destructive testing - Measurement and evaluation of the X-ray tube voltage - Part 1: Voltage divider method
This European standard specifies a method for the direct and absolute measurement of the average high voltage of constant potential (DC) X-ray systems on the secondary side of the high voltage generator. The intention is to check the correspondence with the indicated high voltage value on the control unit of the X-ray system. This method is applied to assure a reproducible operation of X-ray systems because the voltage influences particularly the penetration of materials and the contrast of X-ray images and also the requirements concerning the radiation protection.
Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Messung und Auswertung der Röntgenröhrenspannung - Teil 1: Spannungsteiler-Verfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur direkten und absoluten Messung der mittleren Hochspannung von Gleichspannungs-Röntgensystemen auf der Sekundärseite des Hochspannungsgenerators fest. Zweck ist es, die Übereinstimmung des Istwertes mit dem angezeigten Hochspannungswert am Steuergerät des Röntgensystems festzustellen. Dieses Verfahren wird angewendet, um eine reproduzierbare Arbeit mit Röntgensystemen sicherzustellen, denn die Hochspannung beeinflußt insbesondere die Materialdurchdringung und den Kontrast von Röntgenbildern und darüber hinaus auch die Anforderungen im Hinblick auf den Strahlenschutz.
Essais non destructifs - Mesurage et évaluation de la tension des tubes radiogènes - Partie 1: Méthode par diviseur de tension
La présente norme décrit une méthode de mesurage direct et absolu de la haute tension moyenne des tubes radiogènes à tension constante (courant continu) du côté secondaire d'un générateur haute tension. Le but est de vérifier la correspondance avec la valeur de haute tension indiquée par l'unité de contrôle du tube radiogène. Cette méthode est appliquée afin de garantir un fonctionnement reproductible des systèmes radiogènes, la tension étant un facteur particulièrement déterminant pour ce qui concerne la pénétration des matériaux et le contraste des images radiographiques ainsi que les prescriptions concernant la radioprotection.
