I suspect that its a high frequency unit. The primary of the transformer
would be supplied by very high frequency current allowing the
transformer to be very small in size. It may actually be very powerful.
I've seen 150kV, 300mA high frequency transformers so small you could
almost put them in a lunch bucket.

Subject: X-ray transformer

Hi everyone...I have found something and don't know if I can use it or
not....Every heard of R&L Transfer??? They are based in Wilmington,
Ohio. They have a salvage store where they try to sell things that get
damaged during shipping to reclaim some of their cash. I went in last
week and was looking around and came across a portable x-ray machine. I
asked the guy how much. He told me $25 so, I bought it. I brought it
home and dis-assembled it. I am attaching a picture of the transformer.
Take a look and please comment. I also have the power supply. I'm not
sure what the transformer is suppose to feed on. Hopefully it will
handle 120 volts. It looks like a dual flyback transformer. It was in
the container it is sitting on filled with transformer oil. It was
manufactured in 1996 so...I didn't think pcb's would be a problem..If
someone has experience with such an animal..Please help me out...Below
is a link to (2) pictures...Thanks..Chip Ford
