Safety Hazards
9 MAN-09971 Revision 001
Tipping Hazard Placing too much weight on
the C-arm CMOS detector may
cause the system to tip over.
The amount of weight that can
be supported by the CMOS
detector is highly variable,
depending on the position of
the flex-arm, c-arm, and other
factors. This hazard is greatest
when the flex-arm is extended
and moved to the far left or
right of the system.
If weight is to be applied to the
C-Arm CMOS detector,
caution must be used to
prevent the device from
becoming unstable.
Do not place the full weight of
the lower extremity directly on
the CMOS detector.
Unauthorized
Modifications to
X-ray Tube
Never remove the
housing around the X-
ray tube or make any
changes to the X-ray
tube.
When the product leaves the
manufacturing plant and at the
time of installation, the X-ray
source and assembly meet the
requirements of 21 CFR
1020.30-32. Any unapproved
change to the system could
cause death, injury or
expensive damage to the
equipment, and could void the
service agreement.
Do not make any changes to
the X-ray tube. Contact a
Hologic Representative to
replace the X-ray tube.
Electrical Fire Fire from any source. If there is a fire in the area, and
it is safe to do so, turn the
system off and unplug the
power cord from the wall
outlet.
Do not touch a system that is
on fire. Leave the area. Only
use fire extinguishers
approved for electrical fires.
