Introduction 1
General Remarks 1
The SIRECON housing and OPTILUX X-ray tubes are each equipped with temperature
indicators for 37°C and 40°C.
These indicate whether the image intensifier was exposed to excessive temperatures
while being shipped from the factory to the customer.
The following pages contain information on the serial numbers of the different image
intensifier models which are equipped with temperature indicators. The locations of the
temperature indicators are also shown.
Indicators: 1
Blue stickers imprinted with a temperature threshold. The basic color of the inner square
is white (temperatures have not exceeded threshold).
If temperatures exceed the printed threshold, the inner square will turn black.
1 - 1
The temperature indicators are located on the SIRECON housing near the identification
plates.
These indicators should be checked before beginning the installation.
If one or both indicators on the image int ensifier housing show an excess temperature by
a color change, then in any event read off the 37°C indicator on the OPTILUX tube.
The access routes are described on the following pages.
With the SIREMOBIL Compact, SIREMOBIL ISO-C, POWERMOBIL
and ARCOSKOP:
The I.I. modes used in these systems have both a 37°C and a 40°C
temperature indicator only on the outside, nea r the identification
plates.
For procedure, see Page 2-1
If the temperature indicator on the image intensifier tube also shows that the tem-
perature of 37°C was exceeded, replace the OPTILUX tube.
Exception: Completely replace the SIRECON 40-4 HD and SIRECON 17-2 HDR-L
(LITHOSTAR 2).
If no color change has occurred, remove the indicators from the SIRECON housin g
before handing the system over to the customer.
When a SIRECON unit or an OPTILUX tube is returned to the factory, a completed image intensifier tube questionnaire must be
included.
