Practix 400 Specifications Practix Mobile Radiography All a Bucky station needs plus mobility Practix 400 Practix 400 meets the most demanding requirements of medical care, combining the virtues of mobile and stationary systems: unsurpassed image quality plus film saving, efficient working with Automatic Exposure Control (AEC). When used with a mobile Bucky table and vertical stand, Practix 400 becomes a mobile Bucky room.
Mobility from head to toe Easy handling and positioning The telescopic arm and rotatable column of the Practix 400 offer maximum freedom when positioning. The unit can be rotated and swiveled however needed. The Practix 400 has an extremely short wheel base to guarantee optimum mobility. Even knees within reach due to its geometry Applications Practix 400 from Philips is the only mobile system to use a peak power of 40 kw from a mains socket. Short exposure times offer the excellent image quality of stationary systems. The unit is particularly user-friendly and has 36 APR programs in order to facilitate and accelerate your specific routine settings. The APR programs can be individually adjusted and adapted to the particular needs of pediatrics as well as other types of applications. Options The Practix 400 can be combined with either the stationary automatic exposure control of the mobile Bucky table or the manual exposure control Mobil Aid, preventing over or underexposures. For maximum safety with regards to radiation protection, optional infrared remote control is offered. As with all members of the Practix family, the Practix 400 can be upgraded to digital by adding CR (Computed Radiography) cassettes, providing a lighter and more compact alternative to a digital flat detector.
