1.7. Ingress of Fluids
The X-Ray system is not waterproof. If liquids drip into the equipment, disconnect the power
cord and do not operate the system until it can be cleaned and inspected by a qualified
service engineer.
Excessive amounts of fluids such as antiseptics, cleaning solutions or bodily fluids may damage internal
components if they are allowed inside the equipment. Use drapes, if necessary, to protect equipment when
performing procedures and do not apply excessive amounts of fluid when cleaning.
1.8. Cooling Efficiency
The system does not require any special cooling methods, natural cooling is necessary.
Draping Brivo OEC 715/785/865 Mobile C-Arm X-Ray Product may restrict airflow to components that
provide heat sinking and to vents designed to cool the equipment. Drape equipment and cover vents only
when exposure to excessive fluids is unavoidable and extended use of the equipment is not required.
1.9. Burns
Extended use of imaging equipment may cause components such as X-Ray tubes to reach temperatures
capable of inflicting burns. Use care when positioning equipment to avoid placing hot components in close
proximity to patients and personnel. An anesthetized or unconscious patient is incapable of sensing and
reacting to a hot component.
