50kV Microfocus X-ray Source
Pinnacles 50kV

Developed for applications that require high resolution over a wide-angle field of view, the
Pinnacles 50kV Microfocus X-ray source features high flux output.
Its compact design is fully radiation shielded
and insulated with an integrated high voltage
cable located on the side of the tube for easy
connection.
The Shasta µF power supply has been optimized
to power the Pinnacles 50kV Microfocus X-ray tube.
