Sect.2 - Page 3 OF 8 Doc.000998
User manual 2.4 PROTECTION AGAINST IONISING RADIATION
!
Before carrying out any x-ray exposure, make sure that all the necessary precautions against radiation have been taken!
During emission of radiation, the personnel present in the x-ray room must follow the instructions in force on the subject of protection against radiation. For this purpose, bear in mind the following rules:
• •
!
• • • •
where necessary, use protective accessories against radiation in addition to the devices already provided on the apparatus. always use the special radio-protective gowns: a radio-protective material equivalent to 0.35 mm of lead (0.35 0.35 mm Pb) Pb attenuates 99.95% of the radiation produced at 50 kV and 94.5% of that produced at 100 kV; kV the best protection against radiation is distance: therefore always keep as far away as possible both from the radiation source and from the object of the exposure, using the special remote radiography control with extension cable; avoid moving within or staying in the direct beam of radiation. always use the smallest exposure field possible: the radiation dispersed considerably depends on the volume of the object radiated; Use always the smallest field of exposure possible, appropriately closing the collimator diaphragms. The radiation dispersed does, in fact, depend greatly on the volume of the object radiated.
In no case must the safety circuits provided against accidental exposures be modified or de-activated!
2.5 RESIDUAL RISKS The manufacturer produces advanced radiological systems in terms of safety and protection of the environment. If the apparatus is used correctly, there are no risks for people or the environment. With regard to the risks due to improper use of the apparatus, please see the prescriptions and recommendations provided under the previous points, and it is underlined that:
The MOBILE UNIT has been designed and constructed to avoid turning over up to an inclination of 10° from horizontal in its transport position. Sect.2 - Page 4 OF 8 Doc.000998
User manual It is therefore advisable:
• not to remain, move or place the APPARATUS on surfaces with an inclination of more than 10°; • not to try to move the APPARATUS without working on the special handle for “releasing the brakes”;
• pay attention, during movement of the UNIT, to any obstacles on the floor (cables, steps and differences in level of any kind).
For the Residual Risks due to any defect in the protection measures used, remember that:
•
Protection against electric shocks is made by connecting the metal parts of the apparatus to earth: it is therefore necessary to periodically check correct operation of the whole earthing circuit - according to the ORDINARY MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME described in SECTION 4 of this manual.
Not respecting the unit alarms could lead to overheating of the X-RAY MONOBLOCK: this overload could result in loss, by the MONOBLOC itself, of the insulating medium at very high temperatures.
! During movements of the apparatus, take care that the parts do not hit the patient or the operator.
Avoid excessively fast movements: the kinetic energy accumulated could be a hazard for personnel close to the unit.

User manual 2.7 COMPATIBILITY 2.7.1 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) According to the foreseen use, this electronic apparatus conforms with the EMC 89/336 Directive, which defines the maximum permitted emission levels for electronic apparatus and immunity from electromagnetic fields. In any case, it is not possible to absolutely exclude the possibility that radio signals coming from transmitters, such as mobile phones or similar mobile radio systems, themselves conforming to the EMC standard, may influence correct operation of the electro medical apparatus if they are used near the systems and have a relatively high transmission power. Consequently the use of this type of radio apparatus in the immediate vicinity of medical systems controlled electronically must be avoided, avoided to eliminate any risk of interference. EXPLANATION Electronic apparatus which satisfies the EMC standard is designed so that, under normal conditions, there is no risk of electromagnetic interference. However, in the case where radio signals coming from high frequency transmitters with a relatively high transmission power are used near the electronic apparatus, the risk of electromagnetic incompatibility cannot be totally kept under control.
All types of transmission with mobile radio apparatus must be avoided. Mobile telephones must be turned off in rooms near the apparatus. These rules must be applied when the unit is active.
