Pag. 2/34- Rev.4 [File: AD3001_E00.doc]

1.3. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

This apparatus is in compliance with the applicable rule regarding EMC, Directive 89/336, that defines the
max. allowed emission levels from electronic devices and the required immunity from interference caused by
externally generated electromagnetic fields
It is not, however, possible to exclude radio signals coming from transmitters such as mobile phones or
similar mobile radio devices. These and other transmitting devices, including those in compliance with the
EMC standards, may influence the proper functioning of medical apparatus when used in proximity and with
a relatively high transmitting power. Therefore, the use of radio equipment proximity to electronically
controlled systems must be avoided in order to eliminate any interference risk.
Explanation:
The electronic apparatus that meets the EMC standards has been designed so that, under normal conditions,
any malfunctioning risk, caused by electromagnetic interferences, is avoided.
However, if radio signals coming from high frequency transmitters with a relatively high transmitting power are
used near the electronic apparatus, the risk of electromagnetic incompatibility cannot be completely
controlled.
Any transmissions by mobile radio equipment must be avoided.

Mobile phones must be switched off in zones close to the unit.
These rules must be applied when the unit is switched on (that is to say connected to the mains
and ready for use).
1.4. Protection against ionizing radiation
Before any x-ray exposure, ensure that all the necessary protective precautions have been
taken.
During the use of x-rays, personnel present in the room must comply with the following rules concerning
protection against ionizing radiation:
• When necessary, use protective shielding against radiation in addition to the shielding already provided
on the unit.
• Use protective aprons containing a material equivalent to 0,35mm of lead. Material of this nature
reduces radiation at 50kV by 99,95% and at 100kV by 94,5%.
• The best protection against radiation is distance. It is therefore recommended that you stay as far as
possible from the x-ray source and the exposure target. For this purpose, use all of the cable length
provided for the foot-switch.
• Avoid walking or standing directly in the x-ray beam.
• Always use the smallest possible field of exposure by closing properly the collimator diaphragms. The
scatter dose produced depends principally on the volume of the irradiated object.
Never modify or disconnect the safety circuits or devices designed to prevent accidental
exposures.

1.5. General disposal

Technix S.p.A. produces radiological systems that are advanced in terms of safety and environmental
protection. Assuming that the unit is properly used, there is no risk to people or the environment.
In order to comply with applicable safety requirements, it is necessary to use materials that may be harmful to
the environment (for example: monobloc oil, protective lead, boards and electronic components). Therefore,
where necessary, proper disposal methods, according to the regulations of the country where the unit is
installed, should be followed.
For this reason, the unit may not be disposed of along with industrial or domestic waste and
must be regarded as hazardous waste.
This symbol indicates that the wastes resulting from the electric and electronic units have not to
be disposed as undifferentiated town wastes and they have to be picked up separately.
The proper differentiated collection for the following start of the unit disused to the recycle,
treatment and disposal, compatible with the environment, aid to prevent possible negative
effects on the environment and health and it favours the recycle of materials that compose the
unit.
The abusive disposal of the product from the user implies the application of administrative
sanctions according to the Standards in force of the unit installation country.
For information concerning the dismantling modes of the units out of use, stick to the local
provisions or contact an representative authorized by the manufacturer.
For additional information, contact Technix S.p.A.
1.6. Application & final destination

This unit is a portable x-ray system aimed to fulfil a wide range of clinical applications; it must be operated
exclusively by qualified, trained personnel who have been informed of the risks linked to the use of ionizing
radiation.
The compactness and maneuverability of the unit enables the operator to navigate through obstacles such as
doors, small rooms, narrow aisles and lifts with ease and allows accurate positioning between patient beds.
The ergonomic design of the unit allows the operator excellent visibility during operation and movement.
The perfectly balanced monobloc arm allows free movement and positioning even in the more awkward
positions. The shape of the base allows easy positioning and handling under the patient beds. The position
and shape of the four antistatic wheels make the system easy to move even on coarse surfaces.
The system does not belong to the category of equipment designed for continuous operation.
The system is not used in direct contact with the patient; however, accidental contact of some unit parts with
the patient and operator is possible.
Contact with the patient is non-invasive.
Contact with the operator is strictly for reasons linked to the use of the equipment (normal operation).
The unit is suitable to be used for x-ray examinations and diagnosis dedicated to:
• Operating theater
• Sport medicine
• Plaster room
• First aid
• Pediatrics
• Orthopaedics
This x-ray unit must not be used in areas where danger of explosion exists.

1.7. Interfaceability
The device does not foresee any interaction with medicines; instead it's possible to apply to the unit the
ionization chamber dosimeter as optional (mod. DIAMENTOR PX). It complies with the safety requirements
foreseen by the 93/42/EEC Directive. However, the liability of the interface, if it has not been evaluated and
authorized by Technix S.p.A. in writing, is of the operator and/or the person who has performed the interface.

of Smin=320 DIN to Smax=560 DIN. From the derived dose value Ks the tolerance for S will be approx. ±30%.
2 The filter combination of 1 mmAl + 0,1 mmCu is also permissible

4.5.3. Perform an exposure

TMS300 provides for two different modes to perform an exposure:
• HANDSWITCH mode: the exposure is performed with the x-ray
control supplied with the unit.
• CORDLESS mode: the exposure is performed with the infrared
remote control available as accessory.
In order to change the x-ray control mode, it is enough to bring the choice
switch on the mode fitter for use.
HANDSWITCH Mode
Before performing an exposure, make sure that all the necessary precautions against radiation
have been taken.
After a long idle period (3 months or more) it is very important to proceed with the X-RAY TUBE
SEASONING. It is necessary to avoid high voltage discharges that could be destructive for the X-
ray tube. The seasoning procedure is described in the Service Manual.
• Keep away as much as possible from the x-ray

source
• If on the display "READY" appears and the READY
led is ON, the exposure can be controlled.
• The emission control is made up of a two-steps
switch.
1°step: preparation (about 1 s)
2°step: exposure control
• It is possible to press the exposure control at once 1° step “prep” 2° step “rad”
(second step). Then there is a delay of about 1.2 Figure 14
s before the real exposure.
• Hold the x-ray control down till the exposure has
been performed properly (3 beeps).
The x-ray handswitch activates both the x-ray preparation phase “prep” and the emission phase “rad”. The
Figure 14 shows how to operate the handswitch to activate the preparation and the emission phases. It is not
possible to activate the emission phase “rad” without preparation; however, it is possible to perform
preparation without activating the emission.
The most frequent alarms during the use of the x-ray handswitch are the following:
1. TIME OUT – The x-ray handswitch has been pressed at the “1st step” (preparation) for more than 15s. In
order to perform radiography, it is necessary to release the handswitch and repeat the procedure.
2. MAN STOP RX – The x-ray handswitch has been released before the end of exposure. In this case, the
display will show the radiological data obtained. In order to repeat the exposure, it is necessary to press
RESET.
CORDLESS Mode
The x-ray infrared control has got two push-buttons, one
for the lighting-ON of the collimator lamp and one for
activating both the x-ray preparation phase “prep” and LAMP
the emission phase “rad”. LOW
Lamp lighting-ON – For lighting ON the collimator lamp BATT
press the relative key, the lamp will light OFF after the
lighting-ON time of 30sec.
Preparation phase “prep” – press and release the push-
button “prep + rad”.
Emission phase “rad” – Press twice the x-ray push- button
PREP +
“prep + rad” within 15sec. and hold it down till the
RAD
exposure is finished. When the exposure has been
completed, the unit emits three beeps. Put the remote
control in its seat on the unit again.

4.5.4. Useful information

• Only if the display shows the writing “READY” and the READY led is ON, it is possible to
perform an exposure.
• The 1st line of the display shows the use messages and the error signals.
• The 4th line of the display shows the radiological parameters.
• After every exposure, the 4th line shows the radiological parameters and, in the middle, the
exposure time.
• While shifting from APR MODE (Anatomical programming) to the MANUAL MODE,
radiological parameters do not change.
4.5.5. Optional: dosimeter (DAPmeter)
The unit can be supplied, on request, with a ionizing chamber dosimeter (dose-area product meter, DAP
meter) installed. The DAPmeter function is to measure the dose-area product [cGgcm2] in output towards the
patient.
The device that can be installed is type PTW-Freiburg DIAMENTOR CI-P.
Only authorized service personnel can perform the installation and the maintenance of the dosimeter.
If DAPmeter has been installed and it works properly, the first line of the display shows alternatively the
measures summation and the measurement unit [cGycm2]:
READY 0 00 0 . 0 0
READY c G y cm2
The measures summation is the sum of all the dose-area products read by the chamber. By pressing
F1+RESET, the value resets.
n
∑ dosei ⋅ areai
i =1
“n” is the number of exposures performed after the last time that F1+RESET has been pressed.
In order to determine the correct Dose Area Product to which the patient has been exposed, it is necessary to
press F1+RESET between each patient.
The possible measuring range is included between 0000,00cGycm2 and 9999,99cGycm2. When the
measures summation exceeds 9999,99cGycm2, the message “MAXDOSE” will appear. The presence of this
message does not exclude the possibility to perform exposures.
Data printing
If the DAP meter is installed and works properly (dose shown on the display), by pressing the F4 key it is
possible to print the data concerning the dose released on a dedicated printer, available as accessory on
request.
The final printing relates the data concerning:
Datum Description
Name/Id................ Patient’s name (*)
Born on ............... Birth date of the patient (*)
xxxx.xx cGycm2 Dose to which the patient has been exposed (0000.00 cGycm2)
Operator.............. Operator’s signature (*)
Date Date and time of the exam (format dd-mm-yy hh:mm)
(*) datum to be inserted by hand from the operator.
Connect the printer to the connector placed on the front of the unit; Switch ON the printer; press the F4 key,
on the display the “Print” writing appears.
For more details and / or explanations on the printer, refer to the User’s Manual of the printer.

4.5.6. Optional: Radiography with examination table and Potter Bucky grid
The examination table or the Potter Bucky that can be connected to the unit must be according
to the Medical Devices Directive EEC 93/42.
After positioning the cassette and the patient, follow these instructions:
1. connect the Potter Bucky grid or the table for the examination to the socket outlet placed on the
frontal unit part;
2. press the push-button for the Potter Bucky selection, if the potter works properly the led of the key
turns on;
3. place monobloc and collimator, set the exposure field as shown previously;
4. lock the parking brake;
5. select manually the values of kV and mAs or in APR mode, by choosing the data about the
examination that you need to perform;
6. pick up the x-ray handswitch;
7. keep away at least 2m from the x-ray tube;
8. press and hold down the handswitch in "prep" position for the preparation (about 1.2s);
9. press the x-ray handswitch in "rad" position;
10. hold down the x-ray handswitch till the exposure time is finished. The end of the exposure is
indicated by three Beeps emitted by the audible signal of the unit.
Note: occasionally when the potter grid has been selected “non consent to proceed” may appear, in this case
check the connection.
Note: it is possible to press the x-ray handswitch fully ("rad" position) from the beginning. In this case the x-ray
exposure will be performed automatically after the preparation.
4.6. Shutdown procedure
Ensure unit is switched off before removing the connector from the mains outlet
When finished the examination, do the following:
1. Turn the unit off by operating the OFF key located on the control panel
2. Disconnect the supply cable and wrap it on the proper support.
3. Place the unit in parking position (down, with mechanical brakes activated).

5. MAINTENANCE
Technix S.p.A. can supply, on request, a programmed maintenance plan to be performed on the unit.
5.1. General Warnings

As with any medical device, this system requires:
• proper use;
• regular checks by the user;
• maintenance and repairs by the authorized personnel.
Operational reliability of the unit is kept by following these precautions.
Technix S.p.A. can provide, on request, circuit drawings, parts list, adjustment instructions or further
information for the unit repair.
As users of x-ray units it is necessary to take these precautions in compliance with the
prevention standards formulated by the laws concerning the medical equipment.
The unit needs regular checks and maintenances. The purpose of the following warnings is to keep a good
operating and safety level.
The unit includes mechanical parts that are subjected to wear during normal use of the equipment. After a
long period of use, it is possible that the safety of the system may decrease due to the parts wear.
Regular checks and maintenance are necessary to protect the patient and the operator from damage as a
result of the breakage of any mechanical parts..
The correct adjustment of the electro-mechanical and electronic modules is essential, as this has a direct
influence on the unit operation, the image quality, the electrical safety and the exposure level of radiation to
which the medical personnel and patients are subjected
The maintenance plan includes checks and prevention measures to be done by expressly authorized
personnel and at the unit owner's charge.
In the replacement of any parts that can affect the units safe operation, use only original spare
parts.
5.2. Checks and inspection by the user
The user must check the x-ray unit as indicated in the table below. In the event of operational faults or other
deviations in respect of the standard operative behaviour, the user must turn off the unit. The unit may only be
operated after repairs have been made.
If a faulty or malfunctioning unit is used, risks to the operators and patients can increase.
Summary of the periodical checks

Daily: Check the functionality of alarms, displays and indicators.
Check the warning and danger labels integrity.
Weekly: Check for oil leakage from the monobloc.
Check unusual noises in the monobloc during x-ray emission
Check the x-ray tube and collimator centering
Every 6 months: Check the brakes and the directional handle functionality.
Yearly: Contact the technical after-sale service to perform the constancy and
reproducibility tests, as indicated by IEC 1223-2 and IEC 1223-11 standards,
as well as the other operating tests of the unit, as instructed in the programmed
maintenance plan. (see Service Manual).

5.3. Cleaning
Please take the following information into consideration before choosing a detergent:
• To clean plastic surfaces, simply use water and soap, and nothing else. If other detergents are used (e.g.
with a high alcoholic content, or corrosive solvents, or abrasive detergents), the material will tend to
break or opacify.
• To clean enameled parts and aluminium surfaces, simply rub them with a wet cloth and a delicate
detergent, after that rub them with a dry wool cloth.
• As regards, chromium-plated surfaces, only rub them using dry wool clothes; do not use any detergent.
• To clean the other surfaces of the equipment, never use highly alcoholic products, corrosive or abrasive
detergents and solvents
Before cleaning the unit, please take the following actions:

• Turn off the unit and unplug the mains power supply cable.
• Ensure that no liquid seeps into the unit, so as to avoid short-circuiting or corroding the electrical and
electromechanical parts.
5.4. Disinfection
To disinfect the equipment it’s advisable to use a common liquid solution featuring an aldehyde base or
disinfectants featuring an ampholytic surface-active agent base (e.g. Tego 103, Korsolin).
Substitute disinfectants releasing chlorine or based on phenols are likely to weaken the materials, hence they
are much to be avoided. The same limitations apply to undiluted solutions featuring a high alcoholic content.
Do not use disinfectant spray; it might penetrate the system, and its safety would not be guaranteed any
longer (damages possibly affecting electrical and electromechanical parts, formation of flammable air
mixtures and vapor solutions).
In cases where there is a danger that disinfection products may form inflammable or explosive
gaseous mixtures, always ensure that such gases have dispersed before re-using the
equipment.
