Quantum GX2 microCT Imaging System Manual Chapter 2 | Safety, Warnings, and Radiation Hazards 9
Lightning & Power Line Surges
The Quantum GX2 microCT is supplied with a surge protector. All components should be connected
to this device to protect against electrical transient events.
Power Outages
If the Quantum GX2 microCT experiences a loss of supply power, turn off the power switch for all
components and do not restart the system until reliable power has been restored.
Overloading
Facilities should be adequately wired according to local building codes.
Servicing
Refer all servicing to PerkinElmer technical support. If the Quantum GX2 microCT is damaged and
requires service, unplug the Quantum Quantum GX2 microCT from the outlet and contact
PerkinElmer technical support. Servicing by anyone other than an authorized PerkinElmer
representative voids the warranty covering the Quantum GX2 microCT.
Other Equipment
Use of any equipment other than that recommended by this manual has not been evaluated for safety
and, therefore, is the sole responsibility of the user.
Do not modify the Quantum GX2 microCT in ANY manner by making any kind of hole or aperture
in the imaging system or removing any component of the radiation shielding.
WARNING! Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. See Power Sources on
page 8 for more details on the power requirements of the Quantum GX2 microCT
Imaging System.
