This unit uses 30Kv at the anode and has a 7500 V Focus supply to the Block.
However SOME models actually use 15Kv as the Focus Supply (ie RJ8510 and
8535) so you will have one or the other as your focus supply. I think
there's a 210V supply coming off the HVT that you can monitor and verify the
supply sources are on target, although I'd prefer to check that focus
voltage just to make sure that the focus block has what it needs.
