Dynalyzer – High Voltage Unit OPERATION MANUAL

Preface

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS PLUG DYNALYZER, SCOPE, AND

DISPLAY INTO SAME OUTLET.

Safety Notice

This unit is designed to operate at hazardous voltages found in x-ray generators. The operator is

cautioned to observe all safety practices normally associated with x-ray equipment. Among these

precautions are:

1. Never make or break connections in the high voltage circuit when the generator is

energized. In spite of all interlocks present, it is still possible for an accidental firing to

occur.

2. Never assume that a cable voltage is discharged. There is sufficient capacitance in the x-

ray cable to maintain a lethal charge. Touch the pins of any cable to ground to be sure that

there is no residual charge.

3. Inspect cables often. Do not use any cables with a broken braid at the connectors or in the

cable.

4. Always tighten the locking ring of the cable connector to ensure a good ground connection.

Do not overtighten the ring.

5. Use oil or vaporizing compound on all high-voltage connectors to prevent flashover.

6. Keep away from x-ray beam. This system is designed for remote reading so the equipment

should not be placed near the x-ray beam path.

7. Do not knowingly operate this unit in excess of 150 kVp, or in equipment with unstable x-

ray tubes. Severe damage to the equipment may result from an overvoltage condition.

8. Be sure of your grounds. When in doubt, ground tank to transformer.

9. Always monitor tank pressure. Do not use the system if the pressure reads less than 22

psig. Read the maintenance section for refilling or return to the factory.

CAUTION: IMPORTANT HANDLING NOTICE: This unit is a precision high-voltage measurement

instrument and must be handled with as much care as one would handle an

oscilloscope. While it is portable and is designed to sustain normal handling and

transportation shock and vibration, it must not be subjected to excessive shock or

vibration. The precision electronic assemblies contained inside the tank are subject to

damage from abnormal shock transmitted from the heavy flanges on the tank.

Improper handling can cause tank failure and loss of warranty protection.

Dynalyzer – High Voltage Unit OPERATION MANUAL

Introduction

General

The Dynalyzer IV High Voltage Unit is capable of providing isolated signals analogous to:

1. Anode, Cathode, and Anode + Cathode kilovoltages

2. Anode Current

3. Filament Current (AC)

These signals may be viewed on an oscilloscope, may be measured with Accu-Dyn+ system,

peak measuring voltmeter or may be processed and displayed with the Dynalyzer Digital Display

(obsolete).

This unit has been designed as a calibration instrument and as a diagnostic tool for servicing x-ray

equipment.

This unit is designed for continuous duty, and may be left in the high-voltage circuit indefinitely, if

desired. This feature is desirable in special applications where frequent calibration is required.

This unit is portable. It weighs 32 pounds and is designed to simplify servicing and repair.

Basic Principle of Operation

The Dynalyzer High Voltage Unit is built in two sections. All high-voltage components are located

in a tank pressurized with 30 psig of Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) gas. In the base of the unit are

power supplies and buffer amplifiers to adjust the levels of the isolated signals, provide buffering

against cable and instrument loading effects, and provide frequency compensation. In addition,

there is an oscillator which in conjunction with a high-frequency isolation transformer located in the

tank, provides power to operate the anode current sensing system.

Anode Current Sensor

The anode current sensor is an optically-coupled device that is capable of providing an isolated

signal that represents the anode current waveform. The sensor is capable of measuring current in

the range of 1 mA to 2 Amperes with a 2% absolute accuracy ± zero offset. The output conversion

factor is 1 mV/mA for radiographic and 20 mV/mA for fluoroscopic measurements. The insertion

impedance of the unit is 42 ohms ± 5%. The average power rating of this resistor network is 40

watts, and is the only duty cycle limitation on this unit. The duration should not exceed 1 second at

1000 mA.

High-Voltage Divider

The divider consists of two 1000 mega-Ohm sections that are connected between the anode and

ground, and cathode and ground. Each section contains five 200 megaohm resistors connected in

series. The geometry of the structure provides distributed capacitance that provides a frequency

response of 100 kHz.

Dynalyzer – High Voltage Unit OPERATION MANUAL

Filament Current

Filament current is measured in the common lead of the cathode circuit using an insulated AC/DC

open loop hall effect current transducer. The output of the transducer is amplified to a signal level

of 0.1 Volt(pp)/Ampere(pp), with a -3-dB bandwidth of 20 kHz.
