SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
This manual contains all the information necessary to understand and operate
the DX-D 100 Mobile X-ray Unit. It provides a general description, safety and
regulatory information, operating instructions and specifications concerning the
system.
This manual is not intended to teach radiology or to make any type of clinical
diagnosis.
This Unit is designed for general radiography. It provides all the advantages of
high frequency waveform Generators including lower patient dose, shorter
exposure times as well as greater accuracy and consistency.
The Generator is controlled by multiple microprocessors which render a higher
exposure consistency, efficiency in operation and an extended tube life. A high
level of self-diagnostics streamlines serviceability, thereby reducing down time.
All functions, displays and controls are logically arranged, easily accessible and
identified to prevent confusion. Technique factors and functions are selected on
the Control Console.
The Unit consists of the following fundamental parts:
X-RAY GENERATION COMPONENTS
Control Console.
Generator, that comprises:
GPower Module, which contains the power and control
components.
GHigh Voltage Transformer.
GBattery Module, with the batteries and charge / control
components.
X-ray Tube, part of the Tube-Collimator Assembly.
Tubes: E7865X, E7884X.

ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT AND SUBASSEMBLIES
According to IEC 60601--2--32, the following subassemblies are considered
Associated Equipment and conform to the applicable safety requirements
therein stated.
Unit Motion Assemblies, that comprises:
GBatteries and Charger Module, to power the motors.
GMotor Assembly, motors and wheels.
GDriving Control Assembly, handlebar, motion controls at the
Tube-Collimator Assembly, gauges and related electronic
components.
Rotating Column and Telescopic Arm, holding the Tube-Collimator
Assembly and allowing its positioning.
There are three Column types available:
GStandard Column.
GStandard Short Column (optional).
GTelescopic Column (optional, only for Mobile with Wireless DR
Detector). The Telescopic Column in parking position reduces the
height of the DX-D 100 Mobile X-ray Unit in order to have
complete visibility and safety when driving the system.
Collimator, part of the Tube-Collimator Assembly:
RALCO R221/A DHHS--170E, RALCO R221/A DHHS--170D.
DR Detectors and Grids.
Holders for DR Detectors, Grids, and Accessories.
