Radiation Shielded X-ray Tube

Jupiter 5000 Series

The Jupiter 5000 Series is a 50kV, 50W packaged X-ray tube designed for applications
where high flux density and continuous operation are important.

Utilizing our highly stable and high intensity X-ray tube technology, the Jupiter 5000 Series is ideal for medical imaging
applications and most industrial inspection and non-destructive testing applications that require high
resolution, including PCB assembly, battery, plastic, metal and mechanical parts inspection.
The 5000 Series features a stainless steel, lead-lined package that is filled with
dielectric oil, which enables the unit to provide maximum X-ray shielding and
heat dissipation. The design includes high voltage and filament connectors,
making it ideal for plug and play operation.
The Jupiter 5000 Series is available in a wide range of spot sizes, targets and
price points to meet your needs.
