Additional notes

The SFD Control Bulb comes as a part of the Radiography system. The Radiography systems are used for imaging method diagnosis using X-Rays. A stream of electrons produced by X-Ray tube is accelerated to high velocities by an external high-voltage supply and collide with the target anode in the tube. The beam formed is focused on the patient, and X-Rays emerging from the patient carry the image information which can be stored in a film. The patient is exposed to the X-Rays, and the properties of reflected rays are measured by a detector. The Source to Film Distance (SFD) is the distance between the source of the radiation and the film available in Radiographic testing. It is measured in the direction of the beam. The Bulb comes as a part of the SFD control manifold in a Radiography unit. The SFD can be controlled by proper placement of the Bulb in the unit. It is highly vital in the functioning of the unit. It is operated by a push button switch. Safe packaging provided to avoid any damage due to shifting or rubbing during transit Advanced Reliable and durable Bright illumination provided according to the specifications requirements in the medical environments
