X-RAY DETECTOR COOLANT by GE Healthcare

Product Overview
Key highlights
The X-Ray Detector Coolant by GE Healthcare is designed for radiographic systems, ensuring effective and steady cooling during operation. With leak-proof sealing and an optimal chemical mixing ratio, this coolant enhances system performance and longevity, making it essential for various imaging applications, including the DEFINIUM 8000 and DISCOVERY XR650 models. The X ray Detector Coolant is used in Radiographic systems, which are used as the imaging method diagnosis that uses X rays. The systems work on the principle where high velocity electrons, when interacted with patient’s body, their kinetic energy is converted into electromagnetic radiation (X rays). A detector that is in line with the source of rays, detects them and measures their properties. This can generate heat during operation and needs to be cooled for improving the function and keeping the system safe. This product has a 32 ounce bottle of coolant for X ray machine cooling. In general, cold water is used to cool down the anode. This coolant is a mixture of propylene glycol and water, which is specially used in high temperature applications. The mixing of coolant includes 24% to 25% of propylene glycol with remainder being distilled water. The pH of the coolant is between 5.0 pH and 8.0 pH, if it is measured. The maximum heterotrophic bacteria count is 100 per. This special purpose coolant is widely used in many AW Advantage Workstation 4.2, XV Advantx LC, XV Optima IGS 320, PET Discovery ST 4 Slice and XV Innova 3100, among others. Additional Features: Compatible with many machines
