Introduction

Injury may result if excessive weight is applied to the device. Do not
place heavy objects or lean on the arm, injector head, or handles.
Injury may result during the transport of the injection system. Care
should be taken when transporting the injector. Ensure that the articulat
-
ing arm is secured by inserting the locking pin.
Pinch Hazard. Do not grasp any pivot points. Position the injector head
by grasping the arm or extension.
CAUTIONS Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Failure to follow ESD protection prac-
tices may result in equipment damage. To avoid damage, ESD protection
practices must be followed when servicing any component of this system.
If electronic components are to be shipped, place the components in con
-
ductive carriers (as supplied at MEDRAD).
Disconnect the power cord before removing or replacing PC
boards. Sensitive circuits on the boards can be damaged by abrupt inter
-
ruption or application of supplies.
Remove power when disconnecting or reconnecting head cables.
Disconnecting the head cable from the injector pedestal, or head exten
-
sion cable from the rack or table mounts, when power is applied, may
result in equipment damage.
Allow system temperature to stabilize before use. When the system
is exposed to an extreme temperature change (heat or cold), allow it to
stabilize to room temperature before servicing.
Use only accessories and options designed specifically for the
Mark V ProVis injection system. To ensure compatibility and proper
operation, do not use an accessory or option designed for another sys
-
tem.
Perform regular preventive maintenance. To ensure that your injection
system remains properly calibrated, and that all primary and backup cir
-
cuits are functioning properly, regular preventive maintenance is recom-
mended. An annual preventive maintenance package (offered in the
U.S.A., Canada, and Europe) is available at an additional cost. Contact
your local MEDRAD Factory Service Representative for details.
Do not soak or immerse any part of the injection system in water.
Improper or careless cleaning methods may result in equipment damage.
While cleaning any outside portion of the system, avoid allowing any
water to seep inside system components.
Do not short the PPI Card Batteries. Do not place the card or the bat-
teries on any conductive surface. When checking or replacing the PPI
card batteries, discharge can occur with even a momentary short.
