S8 TIGER X-ray Spectrometer
Warning: High-Voltage!
Inside the S8 TIGER, voltages up to 60 kVDC occur which are however not accessible
from the outside. High voltages exist in the high-voltage generator and X-ray tube, as well
as in the connecting high-voltage cable. In addition, the radiation detectors are operated
with high voltages up to 2.3 kVDC.
If one of these high-voltage components is damaged, switch off the system immediately
and contact your local Bruker AXS Service Representative.
Warning: Danger of Voltage!
The system must be operated ONLY with such mains supply voltages as are listed on the
spectrometer's rear plate. As long as the system is connected to the external mains supply,
some terminals of the internal components may present a danger of high-voltage shock.
Warning: Electrical Hazards due to Leakage of Cooling Water!
Inside the S8 spectrometer there are closed loop water circuitries for cooling the X-ray
tube, the X-ray generator and also for the internal air-conditioning. In addition to that, S8-
3kW and S8-4kW instruments are provided with water hoses which are connected to the
building's water supply system.
If there are any water leakages (caused by faulty components or by accident during the
refilling of the internal water reservoir) the S8 spectrometer must be turned off instantly!
This must be done by switching off the automatic circuit breaker or power disconnector
which is located in the vicinity of the instrument. It is not sufficient to just turn off the spec-
trometer using the power-off button as some terminals inside the instrument will stay con-
nected to mains supply voltage.
The S8 must stay powered-off until the leakage source has been repaired and all wet re-
gions have been dried thoroughly. Be aware, there is a high danger of electrical shocks
whenever there is leakage of water!
