General Notes
WARNING!
In order to maintain the set and tested requirements of the 60601 series of
standards, the ME system must not be modified during its actual operating
life.
Mechanical – Electric Warning
WARNING!
All of the movable assemblies and parts of this equipment should be operated
with care and routinely inspected in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations contained in the equipment Accompanying Documents.
Maintenance and service is only to be performed by Customers authorized by
PROTEC GmbH & Co. KG.
Live electrical terminals are deadly.
Do not remove flexible high-tension cables from X-ray tube cover or high-
tension generator and/or access covers from X-ray generator.
For all components of the equipment protective earthing means must be
provided in compliance with the national regulations.
Failure to comply with the foregoing may result in serious or fatal bodily
injuries to the operator or those in the area.
Radiation Warning
WARING!
In these accompanying documents, a system or a component for such a
system is documented, which is used for the intended generation of X-rays in
medical diagnostics.
X-rays are ionizing radiation that can cause damage to living organisms (e.g.
cancer or mutations).
X-rays represent a potential risk for patients and employees. Therefore, the
application of X-rays with a given medical issue, must aim at the minimization
of radiation exposure for both groups of people.
The group of people responsible for the application must have the necessary
specialist knowledge in accordance with the ordinances and guidelines and
apply the procedures for the safe operation of such systems.
The national regulations must also be observed during planning and
installation.
The X-rays are created in the X-ray tube by strong braking of previously
accelerated electrons, which emit energy in the form of electromagnetic
waves. The intensity depends on the set parameters voltage (kV), current
(mA) and time (s) on the X-ray generator. The X-rays are only emitted at a
radiation exit window of the tube and are limited by the collimator mounted
directly below.
The X-ray components from PROTEC used are only devices for the human
medical diagnostic area, which can be set up to a maximum of 150 kV. Further
information can be found in the technical data inside the instructions for use
for the generators, X-ray tubes and collimators.
