2 Safety Instructions
X-ray energy levels (up to 50 keV) of the excitation beam as used for excitation in the
M1 ORA/MISTRAL cause damage to tissue and bone if exposed to it directly. As a result, poorly
healing wounds and, in extreme cases, loss of individual limbs (e.g. fingers) could occur.
Other than radiation damages caused by an accidental exposure to high dosages of radiation over
short time, so-called nondeterministic damages, such as increased risk of cancer, can be a result
of exposure to lower radiation doses over a prolonged period of time.
All information pertaining to safety in this document applies to current, valid, national laws and the
Ordinance of the European Union. In other countries, applicable laws and national regulations must
be complied with.
In addition to the safety instructions in this document, general, valid, regulations regarding accident
prevention and the protection of the environment must also be observed and complied with. All
information in these operating instructions must be followed unreservedly at all times.
In order to safely operate X-ray machines such as the M1 ORA/MISTRAL, norms, directives and
regulations are defined for safety and radiation protection.
These must strictly be adhered to by
both manufacturer and users.
2.1 Basic Safety Requirements
The following basic safety requirements must be observed at any times:

The M1 ORA/MISTRAL may only be used as intended.
 All safety instructions in this document and in all other applicable documents must be
observed and fulfilled.
 The device may not be operated unless the complete safety equipment, such as the
protective housing, is present and fully functional.
 Each person who is authorized to set up, install, activate or operate the M1 ORA/MISTRAL
must have read and understood the complete manual.

 Smoking, eating and drinking near the machine is not allowed.
 Operation is not allowed in case of fatigue as well as under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The operating staff must be in good physical and psychological condition to avoid impairment
of judgment either temporarily or permanently.
 Only authorized service staff is allowed to perform maintenance work on the
M1 ORA/MISTRAL. Excluded are maintenance works, which have explicitly been allowed to
the user.
 Operating the instrument (i.e. switching on the high voltage supply of the X-ray tube and/or
opening the beam shutter) is only allowed by using the XSpect Pro software.
