CT Scanners

Smoother Rotations. Sharper Scans. Longer Lifespan.

Advanced Power Filtration for
Computed Tomography (“CT”) Scanners

Overview

The Rad-X Filter (“RXF”) offers a more suitable solution for safeguarding your CT scanners than conventional power conditioners and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. Each RXF unit is custom configured specifically for the Make and Model of your CT scanner and the final circuit that directly powers your CT.

Benefits

Implementing RXF results in several operational advantages, including reduced CT downtime, fewer CT service calls, decreased need for replacing CT electronic components, minimized intermittent issues or CT system lockups, and increased longevity of your CT X-ray tube.

Technical Features

The RXF is designed as a low-pass, bi-directional, pi-configuration power filtration system that utilizes reactors and capacitors, along with transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS). Its primary function is to attenuate high frequency electrical noise and low voltage impulses through three main mechanisms:

  1. It prevents electrical noise generated by the CT itself (load-generated) from echoing back into the CT.
  2. It blocks electrical noise produced by external sources (line-generated) from infiltrating the CT.
  3. It stops electrical noise generated by the CT from affecting other devices on the same electrical circuit.

Additional Capabilities

In addition to attenuating high frequency electrical noise and low voltage impulses, the RXF effectively suppresses power spikes, transients, low frequency impulses, and even lightning strikes.

Installation and Warranty

The RXF is wall-mounted, preserving valuable floor space. It is backed by a five-year warranty, and there is no requirement for a service contract.
