The unit has been developed and designed ap-
propriately such that hazards are largely exclud-
ed if the unit is used in accordance with its in-
tended use. Nevertheless, residual hazards may
remain. Therefore, please note the following.
2.1 Intended use and indication
ProVecta 3D Prime is computed tomography x-
ray unit intended to generate 3D and panoramic
X-ray images in dental radiography for adult and
pediatric patients. It provides diagnostic details
of the maxillofacial areas for a dental treatment.
The device is operated and used by physicians,
dentists, and x-ray technicians. Not intended for
mammography use

iReplace any damaged cables or plugs imme-
diately.
Comply with the EMC rules concerning
medical devices
iThe appliance is designed for operation in
healthcare facilities (in accordance with IEC
60601-1-2). If the appliance is operated in an-
other environment, observe possible effects
on the electromagnetic compatibility.
iDo not use the device near HF surgical devic-
es and MRI equipment.
iKeep a minimum distance of 30 cm between
the device and other electronical devices.
iNote that cable lengths and cable extensions
have effects on electromagnetic compatibility.
iNo maintenance measures are required to
maintain the basic EMC safety.
NOTICE
Negative effects on the EMC due to
non-authorized accessories
iOnly Air Techniques accessories or
accessories approved by Air Tech-
niques may be used.
iIf other accessories are used, observe
any negative consequences to the
function of the appliance.

iIf this is unavoidable, note any poten-
tial impacts on the operation mode.
iMake the Installation and Operating Instruc-
tions always available to the operator in the vi-
cinity of the device.
The sale or prescription of this device by a med-
ical practitioner is subject to the restrictions of
the applicable Federal Acts. The device may be
used only under permanent supervision by a
dentist or licensed medical practitioner.
Caution: Federal law restricts this device
to sale by or on the order of a Doctor.
2.6 Radiation protection
iComply with all applicable X-ray protection
regulations and X-ray protection measures.
iUse the prescribed X-ray protection equip-
ment.
iIn order to reduce the level of X-ray exposure,
we recommend the use of bismuth, lead
shielding or protective aprons, especially for
children and teenagers.
iThe persons operating the equipment must
keep away from the X-ray unit while the expo-
sure is being taken. The minimum distance re-
quired by the law must be maintained.
iChildren and pregnant women must consult a
doctor before recording an X-ray image.
iNo person other than the patient is permitted
to be present in the radiation room without X-
ray protection measures. In exceptional cir-
cumstances another person may be present
to provide assistance, but this must not be a
member of the surgery staff. When the expo-
sure is being taken, make sure that you main-
tain visual contact with the patient and the
unit and keep talking to the patient.
iThe radiation room must be lockable to pre-
vent entry by unauthorized persons.
iIf a fault occurs, abort the exposure immedi-
ately by releasing the trigger button.

5.1 Functional description
Similar to computer tomography or magnetic
resonance tomography, sectional images can
be generated with CBCT. With CBCT, an X-ray
tube and an imaging sensor opposite it rotate
around a seated or standing patient. The X-ray
tube rotates through 180°-540° and emits a
conical X-ray beam. The X-rays pass through
the region under investigation and are measured
for image generation by a detector as an attenu-
ated grey scale X-ray image. Here, a large series
of two-dimensional individual images is acquired
during the revolution of the X-ray tube. Using a
mathematical calculation on the rotating image
series via a reconstruction computer, a grey val-
ue coordinate image is generated in the three
spatial dimensions. This three-dimensional coor-
dinate model corresponds to a volume graphic
that is made up of individual voxels. This volume
can be used to generate sectional images (to-
mograms) in all spatial dimensions as well as 3D
views.

8 Grips
The applied parts in accordance with IEC
60601-1 are:
– Grips
– Head supports with cushion
– Positioning aids (e.g.bite block and mounting
for bite block, chin support for edentulous
patients)
Description of the positioning aids
The positioning aids are used to correctly posi-
tion the patient in the unit. The appropriate posi-
tioning aid is selected according to the selected
image. The head supports gently keep the head
of the patient in place.

Radiation protection
iComply with all applicable X-ray protection
regulations and X-ray protection measures.
iUse the prescribed X-ray protection equip-
ment.
iIn order to reduce the level of X-ray exposure,
we recommend the use of bismuth, lead
shielding or protective aprons, especially for
children and teenagers.
iThe persons operating the equipment must
keep away from the X-ray unit while the expo-
sure is being taken. The minimum distance re-
quired by the law must be maintained.
iChildren and pregnant women must consult a
doctor before recording an X-ray image.
iNo person other than the patient is permitted
to be present in the radiation room without X-
ray protection measures. In exceptional cir-
cumstances another person may be present
to provide assistance, but this must not be a
member of the surgery staff. When the expo-
sure is being taken, make sure that you main-
tain visual contact with the patient and the
unit and keep talking to the patient.
iThe radiation room must be lockable to pre-
vent entry by unauthorized persons.
iIf a fault occurs, abort the exposure immedi-
ately by releasing the trigger button.
Information about electrical connections
iEnsure that the electrical connections to the
mains power supply are established in accor-
dance with current valid national and local
regulations and standards governing the in-
stallation of low voltage units in medical facili-
ties.
iInstall an all-pole disconnect switch with a
contact opening width of at least 3mm in the
electrical connection to the mains power sup-
ply. It must be possible to secure the discon-
nect switch so that it cannot be inadvertently
switched back on again.
Only qualified specialists or persons
trained by Air Techniques may install,
connect, and commission the unit.
6 Requirements
6.1 Installation/setup room
The room chosen for set up should fulfil the fol-
lowing requirements:
– Closed, dry room.
– It should not be a room made for another
purpose (e.g.boiler room or wet cell).
– There should be no major fields of interference
(e.g.strong magnetic fields) present that can
interfere with the proper operation of the unit.
– The required environmental conditions are
met (refer to "Technical Data" in the operating
instructions).
Portable and mobile HF communication appli-
ances can interfere with the effectiveness of
electrical medical devices.
iDo not stack the unit next to or together with
other appliances.
iIf, however, this unit is operated next to other
units or stacked with other units, monitor the
unit carefully in the configuration selected in
order to ensure normal operation.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to inflamma-
tion of combustible materials
iDo not use the unit in rooms in which
combustible mixtures may be present,
e.g. in operating rooms.
