OUNTING THE COUPLING FLANGE ASSEMBLY NICOL
V2
This chapter describes the mounting procedure in case a pre-aligned X-ray Tube Assembly is used.
Unscrew the locking plate screw (item 5, Figure 3, page 19) from each of the two locking plates (item 1, Figure 3) and push them outwards as far as possible.
Remove the shipping bracket (item 2, Figure 3) together with the coupling flange (item 3, Figure
3) from the BLD
Unscrew the shipping bracket from the coupling flange (countersunk screws M6 x 25 mm must be reused to mount the coupling flange on the tube housing.)
NOTE
Check the screw required length (25 mm) in the applicable tube housing service documentation.
At least 5 mm must be screwed into the tube housing.
________________
Place the coupling flange (item 1, Figure 1) on the X-Ray tube housing (item 2, Figure 1) with factory mounted alignment ring (item 3, Figure 1)
Positioning the reference pin (item 4, Figure 1) to the notch (item 5, Figure 1) of the alignment ring. Secure it with the four countersunk
screws M6 x 25 mm (item 6, Figure
1) and rings (item 7, Figure 1 )
For screw length, see note above.
Proceed with chapter 0 page 19.
CAUTION
Never loosen lacquered screws
(item 8, Figure 1. This will ruin the factory
alignment of the focus.
For realignment, the X-ray Source
assembly must be returned to Hamburg.

2.2.3 CENTERING THE BLD WITH RESPECT TO THE X-RAY TUBE
All BLD functions have been accurately centered in the factory, relative to the central axis; any further centering has to be done by adjusting the coupling flange assembly of the BLD with respect to the X­Ray focus. The specified alignment tool must be used. The centering procedure is described in paragraph 6.1.4, page 40. This procedure must be carried out:
After replacement of NICOL DISC 4522 300 2417x
After replacement of the X-Ray tube, configurations A and D of Table 3.
NOT for replacements of NICOL and NICOL V2

NOTE
It is strongly advised, to mount the BLD on the X-Ray tube housing without removing the aesthetic
covers first. This allows a better grip of the heavy BLD, and prevents damage to the ruler, when lifting
the BLD by holding the ruler by accident.
