Do not use electronic equipment not compliant with IEC 60601-1-2 in proximity of life support equipment (e.g.
pacemakers or heart stimulators) and hearing aids. Before using any electronic device in health facilities, always
check that it is compatible with the other equipment present.
-
The X-ray tube contains insulating mineral oil. This oil is potentially hazardous if ingested or if it comes into
contact with the skin or mucous membranes. In the event of a defect or fault, the oil may leak out. Avoid direct
contact with the oil and do not inhale its vapours.
-
Do not eat, drink or smoke near the device.
1.8.3. SAFETY DURING X-RAY DEVICE MOVEMENTS
The X-ray device carries out movements in the vicinity of the patient and the operator.
During the execution of the X-rays, the operator controls the movements by holding down dedicated
buttons.
The reset procedure must be carried out before the patient accesses the device.
The operator must stand at a suitable distance from the moving parts. Movements can be stopped at any
time by pressing the emergency button.
During all the movements of the X-ray device, the operator must:
-
closely watch over the patient, and if there is a risk of collision between the X-ray device and the patient,
immediately interrupt the movement by releasing the control button;
-
not allow the patient to assume incorrect positions (resting the hands or other parts of the body in inappropriate
areas) or to move away from the examination area.
The operator must be careful not to interfere with the sensor movement during its servo-controlled activation.
