Abstract: A prototype of a pulsed X-ray apparatus with and operating voltage of 600–800 kV based on a combined helical generator has been developed and tested. Compared to the classical helical generator, the total length of the helical winding is increased by adding a single-bus line, which allows matching of the wave propagation time along the helical generator line to the oscillation period in the generator with a Tesla transformer. It is shown that the proposed transformer has high efficiency. A theoretical model describing the operation of the combined generator is proposed.

Keywords: helical generator, pulsed x-ray device, source of high-voltage pulses.
