The Chandrayaan-1 X-ray Spectrometer, C1XS, during vibration tests.

The protective cover is closed and can be seen on the right-hand side with the hinge above. The X-ray detectors are located underneath the protective cover; they are cooled with copper straps, which can be seen below the cover. The readout electronics are located inside the aluminium box at the left of the image. Vibration sensors are attached to the outside of the instrument (yellow tape).
