07-487 dual range digital mAs meter

07-487 Dual-Range Digital mAs MeterThe 07-487 Dual-Range Digital mAs Meter allows service personnel to check and adjust the mA settings of x-ray generators. This easy to- use instrument is calibrated directly in mAs, thus eliminating the need for the calculations typically required with more complicated and expensive equipment. The digital mAs meter is very sensitive. It can measure increments of 0.1 mAs. It has a low range of 0 mAs to 199.9 mAs; push a button and the range expands to 0 mAs to 1999 mAs.ApplicationsThe greatest use for the 07-487 mAs meter is in calibrating the high current, short-time station where a conventional mAs meter is precluded by tube ratings. The instrument can be used (after verifying the generator accuracy) to set all mA stations and check that photo timing error does not exceed the limits of good practice. To use, simply connect the cable to the x-ray generator and make the required exposure. The mAs reading appears instantaneously on the four-digit LCD. A display indicator warns of the need for battery replacement.
