SPX Series Routine Care
and Maintenance
Introduction
The SPX Series Portable X-ray Unit is a reliable,
easily maintained, industrial x-ray device. With
modest amounts of upkeep and care, this system
will provide years of trouble free operation. This
chapter provides inspections and maintenance
practices, that when followed, reduce the
possibility of equipment breakdown, and optimize
the unit's reliability.
Some of these practices are conducted in
accordance to a pre-arranged schedule
(inspections and cleaning), while others require
attention only when the need arises (re-
pressurizing the Tube Head).
Inspection Checklist
To assist in early detection of potential problems,
the following "Inspection Checklist" should be
followed. Discrepancies discovered during these
inspections must be noted and immediately
corrected to avoid the possibility of equipment
breakdown. The inspections described in these
checklists should be performed in accordance
with general care and maintenance of this
product.
NOTE... When operating in harsh
environments, the following inspection
checklists must be performed more often due
to the higher concentration of dust and debris
accumulating within each assembly
