Safety

Electrical
Safety

• Only qualified and authorized personnel may operate this equipment ob-

serving all laws and regulations concerning radiation protection.

• The operator at all times must remain at a safe distance from the focal

spot and the X-ray beam for operator protection.

• Full use must be made of all radiation safety features on the X-ray equip-

ment.

• Full use must be made of all radiation protection devices, accessories and

procedures available to protect the patient and operator from X-ray radia­tion.

• The VetPro

®

VDX sensor cable should be handled with care. Do not sharp­ly bend or crimp the sensor cable. Doing so could permanently damage
the sensor.

• This equipment must only be used in rooms or areas that comply with all

rooms used for medical purposes, e.g., IEC, US National Electrical code,
or VDE standards.

• Before cleaning or disinfecting, this equipment must always be discon-

nected from the electrical supply.

• The computer and any other associated equipment (like USB hub) shall be

placed outside the patient’s environment (i.e.: more than 1.5 meters away
from the table). The operator shall not access the patient and such devices
at the same time.

• The computer and any other associated equipment shall be compliant with

IEC 60950 or IEC 60601.

Patient
Safety

• Prior to use always cover the sensor with a disposable hygienic protective

cover. A new cover must be used for each patient. It is recommended to
disinfect the sensor between uses.
