Chapter 122
Refer to governing regulations for compliance requirements applicable to the
installation area, dose limits, etc. Requirements differ depending on the region of your
particular country. Do not rely solely on this manual for instructions.
Adequate shielding is achieved by implementing the following measures:
— Establishing a no-access zone at a sufficient distance from the Vanta iX
measurement window, which will allow air to attenuate the beam.
— Enclosing the beam working area with protective panels (3.0 mm stainless
steel panels are capable of attenuating the beam to background levels).
Contact your Olympus representative for assistance and recommendations on
interlocks and operating procedures that limit radiation exposure.

•Users

shock and subject the instrument to mechanical damage, and it also voids the
warranty.
