Abstract
An inspection sorting apparatus includes an X-ray tube with an anode electrode and a cathode electrode, a tank housing the X-ray tube and having insulation oil contained therein, and the anode electrode and the cathode electrode are supplied with a predetermined voltage to generate X-ray. An inspection sorting apparatus has an abnormal discharge determination unit, an LCD display, and a notification control unit. The abnormal discharge determination unit individually detects a first abnormal discharge which is an abnormal discharge inside the X-ray tube, and a second abnormal discharge which is an abnormal discharge inside the tank outside the X-ray tube. The LCD display outputs notification information prompting an administrator to replace the X-ray tube or the tank. The notification control unit causes the LCD display to output the notification information in accordance with a detection result from the abnormal discharge determining unit.
