Important notes on start-up
The MAMMOMAT 300 is adjusted, programmed and tested in the factory, leaving only
the adaption to the on-site mains voltage and the functional tests to be performed.
When the measurements to be made (kV, mAs, etc.) are within the tolerances stated in
these instructions, this confirms that the settings made in the factory have not changed and
the equipment is fully serviceable.
The measured values marked with >> in section 11 shall be entered in the test certificate
provided.
The service PC is required only for programming according to:

• Section 11, Checks with high voltage
• Section 12, Start-up and functional test of the Iontomat

NOTE!
If the generator is switched off with the Service PC connected, wait approximately 5 sec-
onds before switching it on again.
Checking and recording for the area of application of the X-ray decree
(§16 Germany)
In the area of application of the X-ray decree, an acceptance test certificate is supplied,
with most of the data filled in by the factory.
Only:
• the cut-off dose
• the resolution of the film/screen systems used, and
• the output values of the constancy test
must be determined by the owner of the equipment and recorded in the acceptance test
certificate. Furthermore, the front page of the acceptance test certificate must also be com-
pleted with the operator´s data.

Protective measures 2-1
Protective measures
Prior to any intervention in the equipment, disconnect it from the power
supply with the main circuit-breaker.
WARNING!
If the system is only switched off at the control panel or with S2/D711, line voltage will
still be present at the generator line connection, line filter Z1, Z2, transformer T1, trans-
former T10 and p.c. board D711 (see wiring diagram).
To prevent accidental triggering of high voltage cable and radiation, set the switch S2 (SS)
on p.c board D702 to "OFF" (lower position) (no triggering of the SS relay).
WARNING!
After shut-down of the system, there may still be about 380 V DC present on the interme-
diate circuit. This will be indicated by LED V24 on p.c. board D 710. The voltage will
drop to less than 30 V within about 3 minutes, the LED goes out at about 30 V.
CAUTION!
The p.c. boards contain electrostatic highly sensitive components requiring particular
care in their handling (ground before making contact and place only on a conductive sur-
face, see Technical Information TI 219).
Before removing or inserting a p.c. board, switch off the equipment.

Mains connection
The equipment has been set to 400 V, 2-phase, in the factory (see test certificate). Ad-
justment to the line frequency is not needed. If the mains voltage is not 400 V, 2-phase at
the installation site a reconnection of the mains is necessary.
Should a reconnection for the mains voltage be necessary, this must be done at transform-
er T10 as well as p.c. board D711 (insertion or removal of fuses and labeling is specified
in the wiring diagram, see Line Input page 5-3).
Change the rated voltage labels to the correct voltage (there are two labels on the genera-
tor and one on the stand). Labels are included in the installation material.
NOTE!

Other film/screen combinations

In case the customer uses another film/screen combination than those the correction
curves are optimized for, see table 1 of correction curves on page 12-1, proceed as fol-
lows:
1 Begin with curve C2 and make test exposures using a grid table at 25 kV, 2 and 6 cm
plexi (5 cm if limit (ER550) or ER 013 occurs, due to insufficient dose rate). If the
image from 6 cm plexi (O.D.-6 cm) is lighter than one from 2 cm plexi (O.D.-2 cm),
choose correction curve A2 or B2 (A2 makes images from thick objects darker than
B2 does, i.e. A2 corrects more than B2). On the other hand, if O.D.-6 cm is darker
than O.D.-2 cm, choose curve D2. Repeat the test with the chosen curve. The differ-
ence between O.D.-6 cm and O.D.-2 cm (∆ Ο.D.) should be less than 0.30 O.D.
2 Now test 27 kV, 2 and 6 cm. Try even 30 and 35 kV if these kV´s are of interest for
the customer. If this ∆ Ο.D. is ≤ 0.30 O.D., go to 3. If not, it is necessary to test an-
other curve (choose between A2, B2, C2 and D2) at 27 kV. Choose the best one and
repeat the test at 25 kV. Continue in this manner until the result is as good as possible
for the kV´s of interest for the customer. Diagrams 1, 3, 5 and 7 on the following pag-
es can be of help. Note that the steeper the curve is, the more the thicker objects are
corrected (they will be darker).
3 Check also the correction with 2 cm plexi between the different kV values of interest.
If this ∆ Ο.D. is ≤ 0.30 O.D., an acceptable curve has been chosen. It may not be pos-
sible to reach the specified O.D. corrections, choose then the best compromise for the
customer´s needs.
4 Do the same tests with magnification table, but use 2 and 5 cm plexi instead. The pe-
missible ∆ Ο.D. for magnification tables is ≤ 0.40 O.D. Choose between correction
curves A1, B1, C1 and D1. Diagrams 2, 4, 6, and 8 on the following pages can be of
help.
NOTE!
When necessary, curve A2, B2, C2 and D2 can be used for magnification tables and/or
A1, B1, C1 and D1 for grid tables. In general, the X1-curves (magnification) correct more
than the X2-curves.

Checking the film density

The sensitivity to be programmed must be determined by means of test exposures at 25
kV, or kV preferred by the customer, and 20 mm plexiglass.
The plexi must extend at least 30 mm behind the rear edge of the detector marking on the
compression plate and 10 mm beyond the chest wall edge of the table.
The detector shall be nearest the chest wall.
When making test exposures, ensure correct positioning of the plexiglass plates.

Measuring Minimum projecting

point
Length: 10 mm
approx 40 mm
NOTE!
Detector nearest chest wall. Place the plexi plates in the same position for all exposures
and measure the density as shown above on the emulsion side of the film.
Button D ( ) should be used for magnifcation tables and button H ( ) for

other object tables (with or without grid).
Start with the sensitivity listed in table 1 and adjust a density of approx. 1.5 for non-mag-
nification tables ("Sensitivity H").

Checking the automatic transparency adaption

Check the automatic transparency adaption with a grid table with 20, 40 and 60 mm plexi
at the voltage(s) preferred by the customer (within 25-35 kV). If the dose rate is too low
(error 013 or "Limit"), use 50 mm plexi instead of 60 mm.
Tolerance:
≤ 0.3 density difference at constant voltage and thickness 20-60 mm.
≤ 0.3 at constant thickness and 25-35 kV.
NOTE!
Tolerance valid for grid tables and film/screen combination according to table 1.
These limits apply for film with max. gamma 4.0 measured at the density chosen.
NOTE!
The film density levels may vary from cassette to cassette. Therefore, be sure to use the
same cassette for all test exposures.
