KaVo NOMAD PRO 2
KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld X-ray System is a battery-operated, portable dental X-ray
source designed for handheld operation. It is designed to produce diagnostic quality X-rays
images utilizing either film or digital imaging techniques. The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld
X-ray System is designed for use in a dental office. It can also be used in other similar
environments (orthodontic office, general practitioner’s office, hospital ward, etc.) where
appropriate safeguards are implemented. The device uses a rechargeable battery to allow
for the use of the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld X-ray System where transportation or use of
other x-ray devices might be prohibitive due to the other device’s size and/or lack of mobility.
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld X-ray System is an X-ray device with a DC generator. The
handheld device features a main unit (tube head), rechargeable battery (handset), charger,
and charger AC/DC power supply. The power is supplied by a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery
core pack built into a handset. This facilitates portability of the device. A beam-limiting cone
is incorporated within the device. Internal and external shielding provide sufficient radiation
protection to allow the clinician to remain in the operatory with the patient.
To make the system as simple as possible for the operator, KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld
Xray System uses a fixed tube voltage of 60kV and a fixed tube current of 2.5mA. The
only operator-adjustable parameter is the exposure time. This adjustment can be quickly
accomplished through the user-friendly control panel.
Control buttons, display, and a trigger provide the primary operator interface. Exposures
settings can be selected and displayed. Voltage (60 kV) and current (2.5 mA) are fixed with
the exposure time varying based on patient type, detector type, and anatomical feature.
Exposures can be completed using the trigger. The device can be used with three detector
types: film, digital imaging intraoral sensors, and phosphor plates.
Accessories supplied with the finished device include:

• Alignment bars* (Class I, Exempt, EHA, 21 CFR 872.1820)
Optional accessories:
• Rectangular collimator – rectangular and smaller exposure area
• Tabletop stand – tabletop storage
• Wall hook – storage and display
• Hard shell carrying case – protection during transportation and storage
*Alignment bars are a device for positioning image receptors and are provided as a
convenience and are not required to be used with the device.

1.0 Getting Started
1.1 Indication for Use
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld X-ray System is indicated for use only by a trained
and qualified dentist or dental technician for both adult and pediatric subjects as an
extraoral diagnostic dental X-ray source to produce X-ray images using intraoral image
receptors.
1.2 Warnings and Precautions

The device is designed for use with patients of any overall health status, as solely
determined by the practitioner, with the following considerations for specific circumstances:
• Pregnant women. The medical practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of
the device against the potential hazard to the pregnant woman and fetus resulting from
radiation exposure. If use of the device is considered justified, the practitioner must take
the appropriate precautions, such as use of radiation safety garments, to limit radiation
exposure beyond the maxillofacial complex.
• Pediatric. The medical practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of the
device against the potential hazard to the child resulting from radiation exposure,
considering the maturity of the child’s physical development. If use of the device is
considered justified, the practitioner must take the appropriate precautions, such as use of
radiation safety garments, to limit radiation exposure beyond the maxillofacial complex.
• Patients with medical conditions causing involuntary movements. For patients who
experience seizures or who have been diagnosed with conditions such as Parkinson’s
Disease which can cause difficulty in controlling physical movements, the medical
practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of the device against the potential
hazard to the patient resulting from additional radiation exposure due to a re-scan in the
event that an involuntary movement renders an image unusable for diagnostic purposes.

• Handsets must be charged before initial use. Alternate handsets each week to
maximize service life.
• Do not spray disinfectant or cleansers directly on to the handsets.
• Do not attempt to charge below 10oC or above 40oC.
• Charge the Handsets before use and after any extended period of inactivity.
6
 Use only the supplied AC/DC power supply. Unwrap
the power cord of the power supply and connect it to the
charging cradle, then to an AC electrical outlet (universal
voltage accommodated). The charger will flash red lights
as it initiates, followed by a single green circle that will
illuminate to indicate there is adequate power to the
charging cradle. If the green circle does not illuminate, the
charging cradle is not receiving adequate power and may Receiving Adequate Power
need to be sent to an KaVo authorized service center for
repairs.
Position the charging cradle away from the normal patient environment. A plug adapter
may be needed to accommodate the local AC configuration.
 Invert one of the handsets and carefully slide it onto the charging cradle (do not force
the handset onto the charging cradle or damage may result). Expect charge time to be
less than five hours. The handset, charging cradle, and
AC power supply may become warm to the touch while
charging.
 When the handset is first slid onto the charging

cradle, the first bar will illuminate green for approximately
two seconds to indicate that the cradle and handset are
communicating. If the bars illuminate or flash red, see the
troubleshooting guide section 6.2.10. Authorized service Contact KaVo for Service
will also be required if no illumination occurs upon sliding
the handset onto the charging cradle.
 After illuminating green, the first bar will begin flashing to indicate that charging has
begun. When the first bar turns solid green, the handset is 1/3 charged, and the second
bar will begin flashing green. When the second bar turns solid green, the handset is 2/3
charged, and the third bar will begin flashing green. Once the third bar turns solid green,
the handset is fully charged. Remove the handset from the charging cradle once it is
fully charged and store carefully.

2.0 Safety Precautions
2.1 Radiation Safety
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 was designed to be used in clinical settings (e.g., a dental
office) and controlled settings where transportation or use of other X-ray devices might
be prohibitive due to the device’s size and/or mobility.
This X-ray unit may be dangerous to patient and operator unless safe exposure factors,
operating instructions, and maintenance schedules are observed.
This X-ray unit must only be operated by trained personnel in a controlled setting.
Within such a setting, ensure that only the patient is in the direct beam of the x-ray,
and that any ancillary personnel are a minimum of 6 feet away from the patient. If
it is necessary for any ancillary personnel to be closer than 6 feet, these personnel
should stay out of the direct beam and wear personal protective equipment, such as
an apron and thyroid collar.
• The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 provides a high

degree of protection from unnecessary
radiation. However, no practical design can
provide complete protection nor prevent
operators from exposing themselves or
others to unnecessary radiation. It is
important to restrict use and follow all
applicable government radiation protection
regulations. Pregnant women should not
be exposed to X-rays unless necessary.
Proper safety precautions should be taken
to minimize dose to the fetus.
• Operators must be fully acquainted

with industry safety recommendations,
established maximum permissible doses,
and local jurisdiction requirements for use.
• Optimal operator protection from radiation

backscatter exists when the following
measures are taken:
a) the backscatter shield is positioned at the outer end of the collimator cone,
b) the backscatter shield is close to the patient,
c) the patient tilts his or her head when needed to accommodate exposures (see Section 4.7
Exposure Techniques), and
d) the operator remains within the significant zone of occupancy immediately behind the device
shield.
8
• Do not enable the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 until patient and operator are positioned and
ready for the exposure, preventing interruption and inadvertent exposure of anyone to
X-rays.
• Do not attempt an exposure if anyone other than the patient is in the direct beam. If
others are assisting, then they should wear protective covering as required by local
jurisdictions. An apron and thyroid collar are recommended for ancillary personnel
who are closer than 6 feet to the patient.
• When selecting and using sensors, preference should be given to models that allow
the backscatter shield to remain at the outer end of the collimator cone for maximum
operator protection.
• An exposure can be terminated for any reason by prematurely releasing the depressed
trigger (for more information, see Section 4.0 Operation).
• As shown in graphic representations, maximum protection (green area) from

backscatter radiation (red area) exists when the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 is positioned
near the patient, is perpendicular to the operator (with the patient’s head tilted if
needed), and the backscatter shield is fully extended toward the patient and parallel
to the operator.
Stay in the
ZONE
Proper Position Held Back Shield slid back Non-perpendicular

Protection: Maximum Minimized
• Operation outside the protection zone (or with a diminished protection zone) requires
proper precautions such as the use of an apron and thyroid collar, according to
requirements of local jurisdictions.
• Do not operate if the backscatter shield or collimator cone is broken.
• For further information on the tests performed to ensure KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 safety
as a handheld device, please see Section 2.2 Studies and Data on Leakage and
Scatter.
In implementing a radiation protection program, consult all applicable regulations

governing radiation protection and the use of X-ray equipment, and ensure full
compliance with any such regulations.

Leakage
Backscatter
Radiation
Unique internal shielding of KaVo Shielding
NOMAD PRO 2 encases the X-ray
tube, practically eliminating leakage
radiation. This makes it safe to use
PRO 2 as a handheld device during
exposures. Primary Protective
Shielding
FDA regulations specify that leakage radiation from X-ray devices not exceed 0.88mGy/hr,
while IEC regulations stipulate that devices stay below 0.25mGy/hr, an even tighter limit.
In response to these regulations, KaVo will only ship product that tests below 0.88mGy/hr (at 1
meter), 0.25mGy/hr (at 1 meter), 0.02mGy/hr (at 5 cm) for leakage.
In order to verify compliance with this leakage requirement, each individual device is
tested with a calibrated survey meter at 12 points on the device housing, as shown in the
following diagram. The highest measurement out of these 12 points is reported on the
device Certificate of Conformance (which is shipped with every device) and must be lower
than 0.02mGy/hr in order for the device to successfully pass product release testing.

Scatter
As discussed in Section 2.1 Radiation Safety, the transparent shield on the KaVo NOMAD
PRO 2 collimator, when properly oriented, acts as a barrier against backscatter radiation,
making it safe for the operator to stay in the room.
The significant zone of occupancy for operators has been further verified by internal
testing. A KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 device was remotely fired into a water phantom
repeatedly, with an ion chamber recording radiation readings at 336 points in the room,
first to establish the vertical significant zone of occupancy and then to establish the
horizontal significant zone of occupancy. Each exposure was taken at 1.00 seconds in
order to simulate “worse case scenario” results. The vertical significant zone of occupancy
measures 60 cm X 200 cm, while the horizontal significant zone of occupancy is 60 cm X
60 cm. A calibrated survey dosemeter can be used in order to confirm scatter radiation
data shown in the following diagrams.
For further information on these tests, please contact KaVo.

2.3 Usage and Duty Cycle
As a safety feature, the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 will not emit X-rays with insufficient voltage
(low battery).
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 is also designed to avoid damage from overheating. The
minimum duty cycle rating for maximum exposure (the relationship between duration and
frequency of exposures taken during a rolling 60 second period) is 1:60. This duty cycle is
programmed into your KaVo NOMAD PRO 2.
Do not operate the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2, the handset, charging cradle, or AC
power supply if equipment was subjected to moisture (wetting, immersing, or
soaking). Return to KaVo or authorized service center for service.
• Do not open the housings. Doing so will void the warranty. There are no user
serviceable parts inside the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2, handset, charging cradle, or AC
power supply.
• The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 should not be used in environments where flammable
cleaning agents are present.
• Locate the charging cradle away from the normal patient environment.
• Connect only items that are specified as part of the system or that are specified as
being compatible with the system.
2.4 Cleaning
 Use a non-acetone based disinfectant wipe or a cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces
of the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 and charger. Do not use cleaners intended for hard surfaces,
since certain chemical combinations may deteriorate the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 plastic
prematurely.
 Leave the handset connected to the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 and wipe down all surfaces
of the device.
 Unplug the charging cradle before cleaning.
NOTE: The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2, the handsets, the charging cradle, and the AC power
supply are not designed to be subjected to any kind of sterilization procedure.

3.0 Setup and Power Check
3.1 The Backscatter Shield
In addition to the radiation shielded cone, the backscatter shield provides additional
protection to the operator and can be adjusted to permit exposures made at various
angles.
 Ideally, the shield should remain fully extended

to the outer edge of the cone, as close to the patient
as possible during each image taken (see Section 2.1
Radiation Safety).
 You may find that the backscatter shield needs

to be adjusted to accommodate sensors or angled
exposures. If adjustments are needed, gently glide the
shield up or down along the cone using equal pressure
to maintain a perpendicular alignment and to avoid
binding.
 To keep the shield securely on the cone, a cap is permanently attached at the
outer cone end. Do not attempt to remove this cap or to remove the backscatter shield.
Attempting to do so will result in damage to your device.
3.2 Attaching a Charged Handset

 With the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2
placed bottom up on a secure surface,
properly orient and carefully slide the
charged handset onto the base of
the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2. (A properly
oriented handset should click into place
with firm pressure.)
 The clicking sound ensures the

locking mechanism has secured the
KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 to the handset. To
verify this lock, apply slight pressure in
the release direction.
There are electric voltages present at the handset terminals. Protect the handset from
damage; do not probe with fingers or conductive objects.
3.3 Checking for Power

 After locking a handset in place press the Power button.
 The display panel will activate with a battery power level icon in the upper right
corner. Five bars is an indication of a fully charged handset.
17
 If the battery charge is too low, the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 will not emit an X-ray and
the Recharge Handset alarm will display.
 When a battery is depleted to the single bar level , it is recommended the handset
be recharged. Remove the handset from the charging cradle once it is fully charged.
 Replace a low charge handset with the secondary handset (which should be charged
in advance). It is recommended that you keep one handset fully charged at all times to
ensure continuous operation.
3.4 Optional Checks

The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 is factory calibrated and tested prior to release (see your
Certificate of Conformance). A self-diagnostic is completed each time an exposure is
taken. However, the optional checks listed below may be performed periodically as
desired. Some locations may require initial and periodic checks as a condition of use.
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 has an X-ray disable feature that allows the X-rays to be
disabled for training purposes. Test firing this X-ray unit may otherwise be dangerous to
the testing technician or bystanders. See Section 4.2 for more information.
• Power On/Off: Attach a fully charged handset to the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 device.

4.7 Exposure Techniques
As an intra-oral dental X-ray system, the KaVo
NOMAD PRO 2 can be easily positioned. This high
degree of flexibility makes it easy to take exposures
while the patient is reclined, lying completely on their
back, or sitting upright. Ensure the patient is protected
by using an apron.
 When taking images, operators may hold the

KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 by having both hands on the
handset grip, or, for increased stability and patient
safety, by placing one on the grip and the other
on the underside of the housing (but not on the
collimator cone).
 Position the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 relative to the

imaging system to minimize cone-cutting. (If your
practice uses film holding kits or aiming devices,
check compatibility in advance.)
 Exposure times increase proportionally when the

imaging angles vary away from 90° (or perpendicular)
to the film or sensor. To maintain low patient X-ray
doses and to keep the operator within the protection
zone, have the head of the patient slightly tilted, and/
or raise or lower the chin as needed. (See Section 2.1
Radiation Safety.)
 When the device must be angled and the

operator cannot be completely within the protection
zone, ensure operator protection through the use of
proper safety measures, such as the use of an apron.
(See Section 2.1 Radiation Safety.)
 Avoid touching the patient with the cone or

backscatter shield; disposable plastic coverings can be
used to prevent cross-contamination.
 Determine what KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 exposure

time settings deliver optimal results for the type of
imaging (digital or film-based) that is used on a
regular basis.
NOTE: Both digital imaging sensors and film and phosphor plate speeds can vary
somewhat in their characteristics and could require different exposure settings to meet
density preference. (See Section 4.10 Settings Menu for more information.)
22
4.8 Ensuring Image Quality
The following KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 features contribute to high image quality:
• DC voltage X-ray generation is efficient in delivering energy at the level optimized for
diagnostics, with shorter exposure times required.
• The smaller the focal spot, the better the resolution. The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 has a
small 0.4mm focal spot.
• Absorption of scatter by the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 backscatter shield reduces incidence
of noise for the image receptor, which tends to increase image contrast.
Motion during Exposures
As with the suspended tubehead of a conventional wall-mounted X-ray system, some

motion of the tubehead during actual exposures is possible. Use both hands to hold the
KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 during the exposure and keep steady. The pistol-grip style is ideal
for keeping hands behind the backscatter shield, positioning and aiming (with line of
sight through the clear shield) so as to achieve a quality image and avoid cone-cutting or
retakes.
Image degradation or blurriness does not result due to motion of the handheld X-ray
source.
Time Settings, Sensors, and Complete Exposures
To ensure image quality, use correct time settings. The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 comes with
pre-sets to give you a starting point. However, these time settings can be adjusted to
achieve the desired image quality and then saved for future use. See Section 4.10 Settings
Menu for further help.
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 works with the fastest sensor technologies in the market to
assure that exposure times are as short as possible, also limiting any effects of motion.
Make sure you are as close to the patient’s cheek as possible without touching. If your
sensor holder prevents you from getting close enough, you may want to use the Short
Alignment Bars, enabling the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 to be placed directly against the
positioning ring.
Always double-check for the Incomplete Exposure alarm on the KaVo NOMAD PRO
2 display. The Incomplete Exposure alarm indicates that the trigger was released
prematurely, resulting in an incomplete exposure. To achieve complete exposures, do the
following: quickly press and release the trigger to enable the X-ray and wait for the device
to shift to the Ready state; press and hold the trigger until the audible tones and the
display indicate the X-ray Complete alert.
23
4.9 Technique Factors Settings and Adjustments
The factory settings in this chart are intended as a reference starting point only and are
based upon average preferences and use with the cone perpendicular to the image
receptor. Individual results may vary based upon a number of factors including image
density preferences, the various imaging sensors or available film speeds and brands,
patient size, practitioner techniques, and preferences.
Pediatric Considerations
Use of equipment and exposure settings designed for an average-sized adult can result in
excessive radiation exposure for a smaller patient, especially pediatric. Pediatric patients
may be more radio-sensitive than adults (i.e., the cancer risk per unit dose of ionizing
radiation is higher), and so unnecessary radiation exposure is of particular concern for
pediatric patients. Please use caution when configuring the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 by
considering the patient’s age, size, body habitus, and clinical indication when verifying
exposure time settings.

7.2 Calibration Checks
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 is factory calibrated and tested prior to release (see your
Certificate of Conformance) and there are no adjustment options.
Prior to checking the PRO 2 calibration performance, please review the information
provided below.
The following is a detail of the testing equipment, used at the factory, to check
conformance of the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2. Using other test instruments may yield differing
results. Please contact Customer Care for additional testing guidelines.
Measurement Method: Final performance measurements are made using a NERO

mAx model 8000 X-ray meter from Victoreen. Tube current (mA) is sensed across a series
connected resistor with an accuracy of ±1% and measured using a digital multimeter, prior
to encapsulation; the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 has no provision for external measurement
of beam current after final manufacture. Exposure time is measured during the entire
exposure, referenced to 75% rise/fall. Accelerating voltage (kV) is measured at both peak
(kVp) conditions and effective conditions (kVeff), which is the equivalent kV as if the kV
were constant through the whole exposure time. Linearity is calculated per IEC 60601-2-7,
50.102.2a.
Keep the Box: This X-ray unit may be dangerous to testing technician and any bystanders
unless safe test exposure factors, such as placing the test detector in a lead lined box or
the use of a protective lead apron and thyroid collar, are observed.
