1 Installation
1.1 Transport Position of Unit
After unpacking the unit as explained in pre installation, bring the unit to its transport
position as explained below.
• Adjust the column to the bottom most
position.
• Bring the holder and C-Arm in the
default transport setting and lock all
the levers.
• Hang all the cables on the cable
winder. Place the foot switch / Hand
held exposure switch in the holder.
• Loosen the foot brake.
• Pay attention that the wheels do not
strike against any obstacles.
• For transport of monitor trolley,
loosen the brakes.
• For more details Refer Operational
Manual.
• Label is provided on the unit showing

NOTE: While transporting the unit on the slope ensure that the slope should
not exceed +10°.If the slope is more than 10°,there is a risk of
toppling.
1.2 Safety Information
1.2.1 General
It shall be the duty of the installation personnel and the user to ensure that all the
safety measures concerning the unit operation and installation are adhered to.
The unit must be checked for the status of its safety measures at least every year or
any time desired by the user, not exceeding one year.
However, we recommend in the interest of the safety of the patient, the user, and
other personnel to have a yearly drill on operational safety.
If there are any special regulations of the hospital/institute, to be followed over and
above the general safety regulations pertaining to the installation, the same must be
ensured.

Before commencing the operation, the user must convince himself/herself regarding
all safety aspects and their proper functioning. He should also ascertain that all
displays and indicators are functioning as described.
The radiation indication lamp should light only when the exposure is released. In
case the lamp lights in any other condition, the unit should be immediately switched
off and SIEMENS SERVICE DEPARTMENT should be informed.
Any change / or replacement in the unit must be carried out by the manufacturer or
a person authorised by manufacturer ONLY. The record of such work must be
maintained clearly at the site.
Before opening / closing the covers ensure that
the mains is switched off and the plug is removed
WARNING from the socket.
Ensure that the protective earth connections of
the sub assemblies are properly connected.
1.2.2 Safety Checks
[Link] Before operation
¾ Brakes and locks
¾ All C-Arm movement in braked and unbraked condition
¾ Open the Front Cover and check for any loose connection or transport damage.
¾ Check for Mains supply as specified in Technical specification and ensure that
the voltage difference between Earth and Neutral should not be more than 5
Volts.
[Link] During Operation
¾ Follow the Operating Instructions provided with the Unit.
¾ Vertical movement of C-Arm
¾ The radiation indication lamp should only glow when fluoroscopy or radiography
is performed.
¾ Proper positioning of the unit.(refer to the operating instructions for positioning of
the unit)
¾ While shifting a patient on the operating table, take care that the wheels of the
unit are locked properly.
1.2.3 Overload Protection
The unit is designed to work on 110 / 190-240V, single phase, 15A socket. For
safety purposes 16A HRC fuses are provided which will blow when a current
exceeding 16A sustains for its response time.
WARNING Ensure that the mains socket is properly earthed.

In case of fault if the kV tries to build beyond the safe limit of X-ray tube the
protection circuit blocks the HT.
In case of fault if the Filament current tries to increase beyond the safe limit the
protection circuit blocks filament boosting.
Maximum permissible resistance between the Earthing lead terminal in the control
and on the HT transformer shall not exceed 0.1 ohms.
1.2.4 Radiation Protection
Do not put any part of your body in the direct line of
radiation.
WARNING Collimate the X-ray beam.
Keep maximum possible distances from the object being
radiographed. For this make the best use of 5 mtr of
recoilable exposure release switch.
In the room, wear protective clothing (lead Apron).
Monitor radiation received using the personal TLD-
badges or pen-dosimeter.
1.3 Preliminary Checks
1.3.1 Mechanical Check
[Link] Unit Movements
Force required to push/pull the unit on a horizontal surface should not exceed 5
kgf. Force required to push/pull the unit on a 10° slope should not exceed 30 kgf.
[Link] Orbital Movement
125° ± 2° counterbalanced in all positions. Force required should not exceed 6 kgf
at the handles provided, in a direction tangential to the C arm.
[Link] Angulation Movement
190° ± 3° counterbalanced in all positions. Force required should not exceed 6 kgf
at the handles provided.
[Link] Horizontal Movement
200 ± 5mm. Force required should not exceed 5 kgf in either direction.
[Link] Swivel Movement
±12.5° (± 1°). Force required should not exceed 3 kgf at the handles.
[Link] Steering movement
Ensure that the rear wheels can be revolved using the steering lever. This will

1.3.2 Electrical Check
[Link] Mains supply
For units with 190-240V supply
1. Check available mains voltage at the site.
2. Check if the mains voltage is within ± 10% of the nominal range 190-240V.
3. Check if the Mains resistance is ≤ 1.5Ω.
For units with 110V supply
1. Check available mains voltage at the site.
2. Check if the mains voltage is within ± 10% of the nominal value 110V.
3. Check if the Mains resistance is ≤ 0.36Ω.
[Link] Switching ON
Press switch on the top panel. The kV-mAs display will light up.
The Display will indicate for the set-up
time. (3 seconds approx)
After setup and initial hardware checks
the display changes to the default kV
and mAs settings.
The Control Unit contains Non volatile Memory
NOTICE which retains the last selected kV and mAs. So the
initial display after set-up will depend on the last
settings done.
The kV & mAs display and settings will now respond to the corresponding switches
on the panel.
In case of any errors while setting up / hardware check / stand-by operation, the
corresponding Error code will be displayed on the same displays.
The display will indicate CodE 99 in case the
unit while setting up/ after set-up detects that
last reset of the unit was due to watch-dog and
not hardware RESET.
If the unit is being installed after six months from
the date of despatch, the capacitors need
WARNING forming. Refer Service instructions for forming.

[Link] Up/Down movement
Once the unit is switched on, Check column Up and down movement. Check for the
operation of the limit switches. Do the Up/Dn movements several times to confirm
that there is no wear and tear of belt/bearings and no abnormal noise from the
mechanism. Keep the column in the upper most position and switch off the unit.
After the unit is switched ON, the capacitors
WARNING charge to 300VDC. (Approx) After switching the
unit OFF, it takes about 4 minutes for capacitors
to discharge. Green LED on D61 indicates the
presence of DC voltage.
[Link] Cable Connections
