Product introduction
Product Description
The XC-Hydra series is the fastest direct-digital, dual-energy, photoncounting X-ray detector on the market. Developed around the Direct Conversion group’s powerful CdTe-CMOS hybrid sensor, the Hydra brings new capabilities to fast line-scanning applications. z XC-Hydra detectors come in three active area lengths: 21cm, 36cm and 51cm. Being a detector that is ideal for fast scanning solutions it has a sensor width of 0.6cm across the range, and comes with two options of CdTe thicknesses of 0.75mm for standard energy applications and 2mm for high energy X-ray applications.
Core Technology
Dual-energy acquisition with anti-coincidence technology is a key factor in the advanced capabilities of all XC-Hydra detectors. During dualenergy acquisition, the energy of the detected photon is compared to two independent thresholds that are read out separately. The two energy sets can be used for material differentiation, opening the door to new imaging techniques in both medical and industrial X-ray. Most critically the XCHydra series detectors have the fastest commercially available anticoincidence technology, which produces superior energy resolution by ensuring the attribution of each single photon signal to the correct pixel. This powerful anti-coincidence (charge sharing) technology operates across the full length of the detector at ultra-fast speeds.
Application
The ultra fast imaging capability of XC-Hydra detectors mean that images can be acquired with no compromise of the 100-micron pixel size. This speed, when coupled together with the dual energy capability, and the market leading MTF and DQE make the XC-Hydra detector range ideal for in-line inspection applications such as Food Inspection, PCB inspection and DUPRO. Additionally, with its market leading sensitivity, high quality images are captured at very low radiation exposure making it perfect for Medical applications such as full body and extremity scanning and other Radiological investigative work.
Integration:
The XC-Actaeon is connected to the computer via a GigE interface. The detector comes with a fully flexible software development kit which runs on Windows 7 and upwards. The detector is bundled with engineering software which exposes the various functionalities available.
