GENERAL X-RAY TUBES

DU2550-E

Dunlee DU2550-E

MAXIMUM THROUGHPUT WITH EXCELLENT RELIABILITY

The DU2550-E is a high-speed X-ray tube assembly, designed to improve workflow and accelerate image acquisition in heavily used nearby fluoroscopy and radiography systems. Its unique thermal management concept enables extraordinary patient throughput rates in combination with excellent reliability.

KEY BENEFITS

Improved workflow

  • Up to 120 exposures per hour without overheating
  • Enables 4 accelerations per minute

 

Convective air cooling

  • No additional cooling devices (e.g. fans/chillers)
    needed

The DU2550-E is part of the DU-E tube family, and has been specifically developed to serve nearby fluoroscopy and radiography needs.

 

The DU-E X-ray tubes are designed to support workflows of 120 exposures per hour, for all kinds of radiographic applications. Even after eight hours of continual, consecutive examinations, fulfilling two exposures per minute, this tube assembly still reaches less than 90% of its heat storage capacity. This applies for radiographic chest examinations as well as for more demanding examination combinations which require more power, such as the pelvis or stitching images of the spine.
