•
You must program one of the FL curves S2, HC2 or IODINE.
•
The FL curves S2, HC2 or IODINE should be used for the following adjustment.
•
The X-ray tube cover must be installed.
•
Use the dose ionization chamber of the dose measurement device to measure dose
rates greater than 10 R/min.
•
If you are using an area dose product measurement device, mount the dose measure-
ment chamber above the radiation exit port of the SIREPHOS.
X-ray radiation!
See Chapter 1, Safety Information.
Protect yourself against radiation exposure. Wear a lead apron.
Setting the maximum skin dose rate is necessary only for coun-
tries where DHHS regulations apply.

If the maximum tube current was already reduced, the mA value
displayed at 110 kV should be recorded and used for the calcula-
tion. The maximum skin dose rate to be set should equal 9 R/min.
