Mechanical-Electrical Warning for Diagnostic X-Ray Systems
All of the moveable assemblies and parts of X-Ray equipment should be operated with
care.
Only properly trained and qualified personnel should be permitted access to any internal
parts. Live electrical terminals are deadly; be sure line disconnect switches are opened
and other appropriate precautions are taken before opening access doors, removing
enclosure panels, or attaching accessories.
Do not remove the flexible high tension cables from the X-Ray tube housing, or high
tension generator, or the access covers from the generator until the main and auxiliary
power supplies have been disconnected.
When disconnecting high voltage cables, they must be grounded immediately in order to
dissipate any electrical charge that may remain on the cables or the tube.
Failure to comply with the foregoing may result in serious or potentially fatal bodily
injuries to the operator or those in the area.
1.7 COMPATIBILITY
The Linear MC150-C collimator is compatible and can be adapted for use with
X-Ray tube/housing assemblies that meet all of the following factors:
1. Focal Distance of X-Ray Tube:
The focal spot to collimator mounting flange distance must be 6.0 cm,
+/- .080 cm. Four (4) spacers are supplied for adaptation:
1 - .25” (0.635 cm) spacer
3 - .60” (0.152 cm) spacer
Use any of the above combination to achieve the requirements.
2. Leakage Radiation:
Maximum leakage radiation from the X-Ray tube/housing assembly must not
exceed 50 mR/hr at 100 cm (40 inches) at specified leakage technical factors.
This collimator is compatible with all x-ray tube housing assemblies having
leakage technique factors of 150 kV and 4 mA.
