We are developing X-ray nondestructive testing (NDT) system using with portable X-band linac. This system uses 9.4 GHz X-band linac and 250 kW magnetron. Our system energy is 950 keV for Japanese regulation. Therefore we can use it on-site using local radiation protection. We measured electron beam and X-ray. We have started X-ray imaging test. We will use this system for condition based maintenance of pump-impeller at nuclear plants. The linac based X-ray source can generate pulsed X-ray. Therefore we can get still images without stopping rotation when x-ray repetition rate synchronizes impeller's rotaion rate. We are successfull in proof of principle using a simple fan and a synchronized circuit. We prepare real-time imaging for conventional pump. In this paper, we will explain the detail of this system and expermental results.
