MAN-03270 Revision 003 117
Compression Down Motion Variable Speed
Service Selectable between approximately 10% through 100%
of full speed.
Compression Force Display
Two LED Displays on the Compression Device show the
compression force through the range of 10 lb to 67.4 lb (44.5 N
to 300 N) in 1 lb (4.4 N) increments.
Compression Force Display Accuracy
Compression Thickness Display
Two LED Displays on Compression Device measures between 0
and 15 cm above image receptor in 0.1 cm increments. The
display is visible from both sides of the patient.
Compression Thickness Accuracy
±0.5 cm for thicknesses between 0.5 cm and 15 cm
Compression paddles are transparent. The paddles are
composed of polycarbonate. The paddles provide a parallel plane
to the image receptor and do not deflect by more than 1 cm
difference from any surface providing compression under 25 lb
(111.1 N) of compression force (except for F.A.S.T. paddles.).
The paddles are adjustable to provide the focal spot,
compression device and image receptor alignment requirement.
