Air Flow Distribution
Through the filter grid on the back of the system (Main Air Inlet), air flow into the Voluson E8 / Voluson
E6 scanner.
•
Air holes in the RTP secondary power supply allow the air to pass through; the 3 fans (between RTP
and Beamformer) suck in the air and spread it through the beamformer and around the RFI board.
•
By means of the 2 Backend fans, air is blown through the GEB-box (along its internal components
and the PC- Motherboard).
The warm air exits the scanner through holes in the left side panel (Main Air Outlet).
