  • Causa
    The so-called "small focus" of a 3 focal spot x-ray tube may sporadically fail and under certain circumstances further radiation release won't be possible. in this case, the two remaining focal spots ("large focus" and "micro focus") however, will still be operational without any restriction. this is a sporadic but not a systematic failure.
