OVERVIEW
This chapter provides procedures for installing the HF Series x-ray generator, from
pre-installation guidelines to final system inspection prior to operational readiness.
These procedures should be reviewed carefully before beginning the actual installa-
tion. Preparing the X-ray generator for operation requires completion of the following
tasks:
• Installing the X-ray generator cabinet
• Installing the Operator Control Panel (OCP)
• Making the Electrical Cable Connections
• Power-up
• Calibrating the generator
• Inspecting the system
• Verifying programmed techniques
WARNING! Equipment installation and servicing
procedures should be performed by properly
trained and qualified service personnel only.
PRE-INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
While site planning is the customer's responsibility, the following are recom-
mended guidelines.
Verify Equipment Location
In radiology site preparation, it is essential to verify the location and space
allocated for the equipment is sufficient. See Figures 1-1 through 1-3 for HF
Series x-ray generator dimensions. The room plan should show the following
for the equipment:
• All working and parked positions
• Overall dimensions
• Total equipment weights and power outputs
• Structural mounting and attachment methods
Ensure sufficient air circulation space is provided between the rear side of
Generator Cabinet and wall (4.0" min.). The floor where the generator is
installed should be flat and approximately level (minor shimming is accept-
able) and capable of supporting a load of 500 lbs. (226.8 kg).
If the generator is equipped with the "Q-Connect option" (ethernet adapter
for connection to Q-VISION or for integration with a Digital Radiographic Sys-
tem), the associated computer monitor functions as the generator operator
control panel (OCP). If the workstation is qualified to standard UL 60950/IEC
