What Is the Orthoscan TAU 1512 Flat Panel Detector — 15×12 cm (235-0013)?
Product: Orthoscan Flat Detector, TAU (15×12)
Part Number: 235-0013
Detector Size: 15×12 cm
The Orthoscan TAU 1512 Flat Panel Detector (235-0013) is the 15×12 cm amorphous silicon flat panel detector for the Orthoscan TAU 1512 mini C-arm. The TAU model numbering directly encodes the detector dimensions — the TAU 1512 uses this 15×12 cm detector exclusively. This is the imaging core of the system, converting X-ray energy into the digital fluoroscopy image displayed on the monitor. Common reasons for replacement include complete loss of image with the system otherwise functioning normally, persistent image artifacts or dead pixel clusters that cannot be corrected through calibration, and physical damage from a drop or impact. This is the highest-value component on the TAU 1512 — call (800) 643-2998 with your serial number to confirm compatibility and pricing before ordering.
Compatible Systems
The TAU detector size maps directly to the model number — this 15×12 cm detector (235-0013) fits the TAU 1512 only. If you have a TAU 1515, you need the 15×15 cm detector instead. If you have a TAU 2020, you need the 20×20 cm detector instead. Call (800) 643-2998 with your serial number to confirm the correct detector before ordering.

What symptoms indicate the flat panel detector needs to be replaced?+
Common indicators include complete loss of image with the system otherwise functioning normally, persistent image artifacts or a pattern of dead pixels that cannot be resolved through detector calibration, and physical damage such as a cracked detector panel from a drop or impact. Because some image quality issues can also be caused by the detector power supply, umbilical cable, or CCA board, call (800) 643-2998 to help isolate the root cause before committing to a detector replacement.
Does the flat detector require calibration after replacement?+
Yes. After installing a replacement flat panel detector, the system requires detector calibration to establish proper gain and offset correction maps for accurate imaging. This is a required post-installation step and should be performed by a qualified technician. Our certified service engineers handle full detector swap and calibration — call (800) 643-2998 to schedule.
