2 - 10 Installation and setting
Check the light field to X-ray field 2
• Load a 35x35 cm (14"x14") cassette with film.
• Put the cassette on a table or a similar repository.
• Set a SID of 100 cm (39"). Use the measuring tape.
• Switch on the collimator lamp and align the cassette. Now, collimate the light field to
25 x 25 cm (10"x10").
• Mark the four corners with coins and mark one of the corners with two coins, see Fig. 7.
• Set 52 kV, 2.0 mAs on the Control and display panel.
• Trigger an exposure.
• Process the film and measure the deviation between the light field and the X-ray field.
Permissible deviation ±1.7 % of the SID, see Fig. 8.
If the deviation is greater, see "Service Instructions, chapter Replacement and repairs on
the collimator".
Measurement of protective ground wire 2
Measuring instruments required: test instrument for protective ground wire
• Measure protective ground wire according to ARTD-002.731.17... "Safety regulations for
