TW325VSM

This document provides information about the wiring interconnect and tube protection adjustments for a Transworld 325V x-ray generator. It details the connections on the generator terminal strip and transformer. It explains how to install a mAs meter and identifies the color codes for typical x-ray tube connections. The document describes adjustments for the upper and lower kV limits on the tube protection circuit board. It notes that disconnecting the two-wire molex connector from the power supply board will disable the tube protection. It closes with contact information for X-2 Engineering.

TB4-4, M1 lead is the connection to remove and install a mAs meter in series for
calibration of mA. One lead of mAs meter on TB4-4 and the other lead of the mAs meter
clipped onto the end of the wire M1 (black with a white stripe)

*X-ray tube stator/rotor connections for most x-ray tubes. Normally the x-ray tube rotor
cable from the x-ray tube will be color coded as below:

09 common white wire lead


08 start either red or green wire
07 run black wire lead

Transworld 325V Tube Protect Adjustments

These adjustments are made on the Logic Board which is plugged into the top
of the Power Supply Board by means of the p.c. board edge connector.

R138, multi-turn potentiometer. The upper kV limit adjusts the tube protect circuit for the range from
125 kV to about 80 kv. This adjustment sets at what point the tube protect turns on and prevents
rotor/exposure.
R136 is the lower limit kV adjustment. Adjusting it will set where tube protection turns on to prevent
rotor/exposure at a low kV setting from about 70kV to 40kV.
The majority of the tube protection is done on the Tube Protect p.c.b.

U8, top right hand corner of the board is the Eprom where the data is stored with the x-ray tube data
from the factory for the x-ray tube that was originally shipped with the generator. The small molex
connector with the black and blue wire (as shown above) plugs into the Power Supply Board.
Disconnecting this plug from the Power Supply Board will disable the tube protect function of the
generator allowing for any setting of kV or time regardless of the mA station selected.

It should be noted that without any tube protection, the operator will need to observe that they don't
exceed the ratings of the x-ray tube at particular technique settings that could damage the x-ray tube.

The next photo shows the above connection to the Power Supply Board. By unplugging the two wire
molex connector (black and blue wire) the tube protection will be defeated.
