MRC X-Ray Tube
Philips MRC-class high-output rotating-anode tube. Drives the imaging chain on every Allura Xper variant plus the Clarity FD20. High duty cycle in interventional use accelerates wear vs diagnostic fluoroscopy.
Fits
All Allura Xper variants (single-plane FD10, single-plane FD20, biplane, Clarity FD20).
Diagnosis
- Anode bearing noise → end-of-life signal
- Arcing under duty cycle → stop scanning; risk of collateral damage
- Tube scan + mA·s counters are the real wear indicators — not just hours
