WARNING
Do not modify or alter the X-ray Detector, its components, or
accessories. Ignoring this warning may result in explosion, fire, or
electric shock, which may result in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial product damage.
WARNING
The detector is not intended to be used as a primary barrier to X-rays.
The user is responsible for ensuring the safety of the operators,
bystanders, and the subjects being X-rayed.
WARNING
The detector is not designed to control X-ray dose. The system
integrator is responsible for controlling the X-ray radiation.
WARNING
Operating the detector using X-ray energies above 225kV without
additional external shielding will damage the internal electronics.
WARNING
The detector’s active imaging area has a lifetime X-ray radiation
exposure limit of approximately 1MRad.
Caution
Do not operate the X-ray Detector in a location with the following
conditions:
•
Close to fluid or places where fluid is used
•
Close to heat sources, such as a heater
•
High temperature environment
•
High humidity environment
•
High condensation environment
•
Extreme cold environment
•
Dusty environment
•
Salty or sulfurous environment
•
Near a vibrating environment
•
Environment where there is insufficient air circulation to enable the X-ray
Detector and power supply to dissipate heat
Ignoring this caution may result in personal injury or damage to
the product.
Caution
Monitor the temperature of the X-ray Detector, and allow the detector
to cool down when the temperature of the detector gets hot. Ignoring
this caution may result in personal injury or damage to the product.
