Configuration
DX-D 600 is an integrated Digital Radiography X-Ray system.
DX-D 600
DX-D 600 is a DR X-Ray system (Direct Radiography X-Ray system).
The complete DX-D 600 consists of the following components:
• Ceiling suspension with X-ray tube and automatic collimator
• RAD Table DR with integrated 4343R DR Detector or DR Detector bucky
• RAD Wall Stand DR with integrated 4343R DR Detector or DR Detector
bucky
• Portable DR Detector
• X-Ray generator
• X-Ray generator control box
• X-Ray tube with automatic collimator
• NX workstation
• DR Generator Sync Box
The DR Detector bucky has two variants. Depending on the configuration, the
use of the DR Detector bucky is restricted to
• DR Detectors with a size equivalent to 14x17 inch (43x35 cm) and 43x35
CR Cassettes
• DR Detectors with a size equivalent to 17x17 inch (43x43 cm)
DX-D 600 can be used in combination with:
• CR Digitizer
DX-D 600 has two configurations:
• full automatic configuration, supporting automatic positioning and the
Full Leg Full Spine application (optional) (type 5430/120)
• semi-automatic configuration, supporting auto-tracking functionality
(type 5430/110)
DX-D 600 supports the Full Leg Full Spine application on the RAD Wall Stand
or the RAD Table using the integrated 4343R DR Detector or a portable DR
Detector in the DR Detector bucky.
