Section 10.0 - Site Environmental Considerations
Section 10.0
Site Environmental Considerations
10.1
Dust/Dirt Contamination
The system (consisting of: Console, PDU, Table and Gantry) are highly susceptible to airborne
contaminants, especially concrete and drywall dust. Due to the possibility of contamination, these
systems should NEVER be installed in a construction site. Any site with unfinished floors, walls or
ceilings is considered a construction site, and is not suitable for system installation.
NOTICE
The act of installing a GE CT scanner in a construction (i.e., unfinished) site will likely result
in the following adverse effects:
•
Increased installation time
•
Decreased installation quality
•
Increased scanner downtime, due to increased service calls
10.2
Chemical Contamination
Wet film processors must never be installed in the same room as the scanner, due to the possibility
of chemical contamination of system CT scanner components. Such chemicals can contribute to
increased equipment failures, increased system downtime, and decreased reliability. Film
processor equipment installation must meet the manufacturer’s requirements (e.g. ventilation
specifications) and all applicable national and local codes. Also, consideration’s should be given to
the location of this equipment and chemical fumes relative to human contact as it relates to locating
this equipment and chemicals in the control room.
Section 11.0
Handling Requirements
Communicate the information in this chapter to any personnel who will transport, move, or
otherwise handle the system components during transportation and delivery of the system.
11.1
Transportation
To avoid dropping the gantry, it is recommended that the system is transported from GE Healthcare
to the facility of the installation site, shipping dock-to-dock in a van. However, facilities without a
loading dock may transport the system using lift-gate or flatbed trucks, provided that no dropping or
mis-handling of the system occurs. These methods involve unloading system components from the
truck and then rolling them across SMOOTH sidewalks or other paved surfaces.
11.2
Handling Requirements
The design of the system does not tolerate dropping, shock, vibration, tipping, or hoisting. Be sure
to communicate these handling requirements to all parties involved in transporting, moving, and
handling system components.
