4.1 General Guidelines
Maintaining constant temperature and humidity levels is essential in order to ensure system
functionality over time.
Overheating or underheating, or changes in humidity that exceed the requirements provided in
this section can cause technical difficulties and system failures and can cause damage to system
components. You must conform to the requirements in
both during system storage
and in as long as the system is operational after installation.
Cooling requirements do not include cooling for room lighting, personnel or other equipment.
Locate a wall air-conditioning vent at floor level beside and behind gantry to meet gantry cooling
needs and to provide patient comfort. Do not locate any cooling vents directly above the gantry.
Air returns above the gantry are recommended.
