Radiation Warning
WARING!
The component of the equipment described within this Document is part of a
system for the intended generation of X-rays for medical diagnosis.
X-rays generate a potential risk for both patients and operators.
For this reason, the application of X-rays for a given medical purpose must
aim at the minimization of radiation exposition to any persons. Those persons
responsible for the application must have the specific knowledge according
to legal requirements and regulations and must establish safe exposure
procedures for these kinds of systems. Those persons, responsible for the
planning and installation of this equipment, must observe the national
regulations.
The system causes different ionising radiation. The purpose is to create
characteristic X-ray radiation. The intensity depends on the adjusted values of
voltage, current and time. The radiation comes orthogonal out of the X-ray
tube and is limited by the collimator.
