The Dual-Range Digital mAs Meter, Model 07 487, allows service personnel to check and adjust the mA settings of x-ray generators. This easy to- use instrument is calibrated directly in mAs, thus eliminating the need for the calculations typically required with more complicated and expensive equipment.
The digital mAs meter is very sensitive. It can measure increments of 0.1 mAs. It has
a low range of 0 to 199.9 mAs; push a button and the range expands to 0 to
1999 mAs.
Applications
The greatest use for the Nuclear Associates’ Model 07-487 mAs meter is in calibrating the high-current, short-time station where a conventional mAs meter is precluded by tube ratings. The
instrument can be used (after verifying the generator accuracy) to set all mA stations and check that phototiming error does not exceed the limits of good practice. To use, simply connect the
cable to the x-ray generator and make the required exposure. The mAs reading appears instantaneously on the four-digit LCD. Adisplay indicator warns of the need for battery replacement.
Features
- Accurately measure x-ray generator mAs values
- Meets today’s QC needs for accuracy and dependability
- Used for calibration of high current and phototimer accuracy
- Calibrated directly in mAs; no calculations required
- Hand-held, battery operated, and lightweight
