X-ray Detectors
DeReO WA is a portable Direct Radiography (DR) detector. Such systems are commonly named “Flat panel” due to their small thickness. They provide immediately the digital image of the object that is radiographied in front of them. DeReO distinguishes from other devices by its wide area (WA) of 40 cm x 40 cm, the fluoroscopy functionality (real time inspection in continous mode as a movie camera and not just as a photo camera), its ruggedised conception and the fact that it doens’t require any synchronisation with the generator it is combined with. Its 200 µm pixels also offer a higher sensitivity to the panel and therefore higher penetration capabilities. It is controlled with Maestro, a clever software platform that focuses on the ease of use but in offering all the key features required to get a perfect image quality.
DF stands for Direct Film. This is not a digital solution but an up-to-date material that combines the flexibility of the CR plate and the Direct results of the DR detectors. This material is supplied in rolls of 50 cm width of any length up to several hundred meters. When exposed to X-rays DR film darkens itself and provides a radiographic image without any chemical or digital process. It is not very sensitive and requires a powerfull generator. In combination with GemX-160, DF is the most cost effective solution for X-ray imaging security applications and for wide area inspections.
CeReO for Museum inspection and Intelligence is a portable Computed Radiography (CR) detector. Smart and easy to use, it opens the doors of digital radiography for inspections in Museums and on the field. It is controlled with Maestro, a clever software whose development is focused on the ease of use but in offering all the key features required to get a perfect image quality. Image plate dimensions are 20 x 43 cm, with a resolution up to 21 µm and 16 bits of digitalisation : the highest achievement in digital radiography. GemX-160 and CeReO offer you the highest end portable solution with CR.
X-ray Generators
GemX-160 and GemX-200 – These generators are battery powered, wireless controlled, portable constant potential X-ray units. They can operate from 20 to 160 kV at 160 W (resp. 50 to 200 kV at 200 W). Each LiPo battery pack can deliver up to 200,000 kV.mA.s of radiation (eg. 2,000 s at 100 kV – 1 mA). The oil insulation offers a duty cycle of 2 hours of continuous X-ray per day. Thanks to the Beryllium window, soft radiations are kept in the low kV part of the spectrum which gives the best contrast for low density material inspection. The focal spot of 0.5 mm (IEC 336) offers the best image quality. In combination with a CR or a DR, they can be used for the inspection of steel up to 35 mm thickness. GemX-160 and GemX-200 are unique and up-to-date solutions for digital radiography in NDT.
