FEATURES
(1) Inverter system
The high frequency inverter system adopted for high
voltage generation, generates low ripple tube
voltage with high X-ray quantum efficiency.
Moreover, by cutting off X-rays regardless of power
phase, it is possible to perform high-accuracy photo-
timer control in the ultra-short time.
(2) Microcomputer
To enhance the ergonomic design of the UD150B
-40/L40/V-40, a microcomputer is utilized for the
improvement of operability and safety.
(3) Detailed setting of exposure factors
Exposure time and mAs can be set more in detail in
every 12.5% than the conventional.
(4) Preset memory
The preset memory allows the most commonly used
techniques to be programmed. By pressing the
program selector key, automatic selection can be
made for radiographic factor, tube focus, etc.
(5) Color LCD Touch Panel
A color LCD panel with high visual clarity is used as
the screen for setting X-ray conditions. The panel,
which uses different colors for extra clarity, allows
simple APR selection.
(6) Hybrid Dials
X-ray conditions can be changed easily using hybrid
dials. Large changes can be made using jog/shuttle
and small changes can be made precisely using the
up/down buttons. Using both types of adjustment
method allows conditions to be set quickly.

(7) Lights up hand switch
The hand switch lights up to indicate Ready Up and
X-ray exposure status.
(8) Illumination panel
The operation panel indicates the status of the
device (e.g., ready to take images or image capture
in progress) using color and sound.
(9) 2-factors control system
In addition to the ordinary setting system of KV, mA,
and sec., technique conditions can be also set with
2-factors of kV and mAs. In this case, mA and sec.
are automatically set to the maximum allowable
value and the shortest value.
(10) Compact size
Compact 2-unit construction. The unique space-
saving design of the 2 unit consists of a compact
control panel that can be desk or wall mounted and
one control cabinet, requiring a very small
installation space.
(11) Two standard fluoroscopic modes
Two standard fluoroscopic modes are provided.
Each mode is customised to meet the requirements
of clinical application.
(12) Automatic fluoroscopic diagnosis
Tube voltage is automatically controlled even if a
radiograpic area or subject thickness is changed
during fluoroscopy. The image brightness stabilizer
(IBS) always ensures a fluoroscopic image with
optimum brightness.
