24、. For an X-RAY TUBE HEAD, its X-RAY TUBE ASSEMBLY aspects are also within the scope. This International Standard covers performance-related definitions and conditions of electrical and LOADING characteristics of X-RAY TUBE ASSEMBLIES in relation to their behaviour during and after energization and,
25、where appropriate, methods of presentation and measurement of these characteristics. This International Standard is therefore relevant for the MANUFACTURER and the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION. NOTE “Measurement“ in this standard is always related to practical use. Consequently, “measurement“ is meant t
