WARNING
Use only non-magnetic (e.g., aluminum) cylin-
ders with the Fabius MRI. Steel cylinders will
cause serious injury or death if brought into
an MR scanning room.
WARNING
When attaching a cylinder, ensure that only
one washer is installed between the cylinder
and the yoke gas inlet. The use of multiple
washers will inhibit the pin-index safety sys-
tem. Be sure to verify the presence of the
index pins each time a cylinder is installed.
Never attempt to override the pin-index safety
system.
WARNING
Do not oil or grease the O
2
cylinder valves and
O
2
pressure regulator. There is a risk of explo-
sion.
CAUTION
Even if the gas supply is connected to a medical
gas pipeline, the cylinders should remain on the
device in reserve.
NOTE
If cylinder valves are leaky or difficult to open or
close, they must be repaired in accordance with
the manufacturer’s specifications.
