Safety and Maintenance
WARNING!
Caution Electrocution hazard!
Prior to cleaning or disinfection, switch of the automated X-ray film processor.
As a result, the processor will be disconnected from power and the danger of
electric shock is eliminated.
6.1 Introduction
In this chapter, you will find details regarding safety and maintenance, which is required to ensure the
correct and reliable function of the radiographic system following initial installation.
6.2 Cleaning and disinfection
NOTE
The colour changes in the
baths is normal; it is caused by the properties of the
chemicals!
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol containing solvents to clean the machine!
Pay attention that, during cleaning and/ or disinfection, no fluids find their way into the main housing
of the radiographic table. This reduces the risk of short circuits and corrosion.
CAUTION!
Do not let any liquid drop inside the processor or run over the control. Liquids
may cause damage to the processor.
6.2.1 Cleaning
The cleaning of the automated X-ray film processor is very easy due to the very good surface coating.
This is usually done only with a dry cloth.
Do not use corrosive, solvent or abrasive cleaning agents that can damage the surfaces of the device or
the paint.
Clean the outer surfaces of the unit and all painted components using a damp towel and a mild – light
alkaline cleaning agent (e.g. RBS* Neutral T). Dry the components off following cleaning.
6.2.2 Daily care
Before use
• Remove dirt and dust from film-infeed with soft cloth
• Run 2 - 3 cleaner films through processor to remove all accumulated dirt and dust from the
rollers
•
Check the liquid level in the replenishment containers and if necessary refill
After use
• When working has been completed at the end of the day, the water must be drained from the
machine. This reduces the growth of algae in the water bath. For that purpose open the water
drainage stop cock (see 3.5.3)
