Mitech XXGH-3005 Ray Flaw Detector

Mitech XXGH-3005 Inflatable X-Ray Flaw Detector

Portable Radiographic Testing Solution for Industrial NDT

The Mitech XXGH-3005 is a portable, inflatable X-ray flaw detector designed to deliver high-performance non-destructive testing (NDT) for a wide variety of materials and structures. By exploiting the differential absorption of X-rays through varying material thicknesses and densities, the device reveals internal defects such as cracks, voids, and inclusions with high clarity on radiographic film.

Its compact and lightweight construction makes it ideal for field inspections, including high-altitude or confined workspaces. Designed for professionals working in shipbuilding, aerospace, petrochemical, and military sectors, the XXGH-3005 offers reliability, safety, and accuracy in demanding environments.

Key Features

• microcomputer-controlled operation for precision and stability

• compact, lightweight, and easy to transport

• over-temperature protection automatically cuts high voltage to protect the tube

• independent current (mA) and voltage (kV) control for optimized X-ray output

• anti-interference circuitry ensures stability in high-voltage environments

• automatic fault display with real-time error codes for easy diagnostics

• delayed high-voltage start allows operators to move to a safe distance before exposure

• high-voltage system isolated from control unit for improved operator safety

• duty cycle of 1:1 ensures proper cooling between exposures to extend equipment lifespan

• compatible with standard or generator power for off-grid operation

Applications

The Mitech XXGH-3005 is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including:

• shipbuilding and marine structures

• aerospace and aviation component inspection

• railway manufacturing and maintenance

• pressure vessel and boiler testing

• oil and gas pipelines

• petrochemical and chemical production facilities

• military and defense manufacturing

• machinery and structural steel fabrication

Its radiographic imaging system allows detailed internal analysis of welds, castings, and structural components without damaging the material.

Working Principle

The device emits high-voltage X-rays that penetrate the material under inspection. Differences in thickness and density affect the absorption of X-rays, creating contrasts on special radiographic film. These contrasts reveal flaws such as cracks or inclusions. The unit uses a rectifier-based power system and a sealed X-ray tube to generate and direct the radiation.

After exposure, the film is developed and analyzed to interpret the type, size, and position of internal defects.

Operation & Maintenance Tips

• always warm up the system before use to preserve X-ray tube vacuum quality

• enable delayed high-voltage start to maintain operator safety

• verify all cable connections, grounding, and air pressure before initiating exposure

• do not turn off the unit during the cooling cycle to avoid damage to internal components

• avoid internal repairs; contact Mitech support for servicing or troubleshooting

• use proper shielding (e.g., 2 mm lead plates) or maintain a safety distance of 20 meters during exposure

The Mitech XXGH-3005 combines portability, precision, and protection, making it a dependable radiographic tool for industrial professionals needing fast and reliable internal flaw detection.
