include, but are not limited to, Non-Destructive Testing, Electronics Inspection and
Computed Tomography (CT).
Installation Warning
The User is responsible for the safe and prudent installation of the detector in their
system. All X-ray sources and controls, shielding, personnel safety monitoring
devices, and personnel safety precautions and training involved in the use of this
detector are the responsibility of the User and/or the End-User.
Safety Statement
The general safety precautions that follow must be observed during all phases of
installation, operation, service, repair and disposal of this system. Failure to comply
with these precautions, or with specific warnings noted in this manual, violates the
safety standards of design, manufacture and the intended used of this system.
Teledyne DALSA assumes no responsibility for the user’s failure to comply with
these requirements.
Warning: The product, when installed, is subject to exposure from X-rays during
operation.
To ensure personnel safety, it is necessary that a radiation meter will be used to check
for radiation leakage after installation of the detector in the end users system.
Teledyne DALSA assumes no responsibility for proper installation of the detector,
installation of X-ray shielding, X-ray shield enclosure testing, or safe and prudent
operation of the detector system in the End-user's installation. It is the Users and End-
users responsibility to ensure that local and federal guidelines regarding the
installation and operation of X-ray sources are followed.

The power requirements of the product, especially the voltage specifications, must be
strictly adhered to or warranty will be void.
No User Serviceable Components
There are no components in this system which need to be replaced, modified, or
adjusted by the end user. Please contact Teledyne DALSA Support for assistance if
needed.
Safety Warning: Tampering with this product voids the warranty and may degrade
the detectors image quality, resulting in a possibly unsafe condition for (End-)Users.
The system has been designed to minimize the amount of interference it may
generate in an installation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and operated in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to other devices in the area.
Stacking
Teledyne DALSA does not recommend that the user stack the product or use it
adjacent to other equipment. If this arrangement is unavoidable, then the (End-)user
must ensure that there is adequate airflow around the detector and that normal
operation conditions are maintained.
Disposal of Product
The detector contains lead and no batteries. Dispose the unit in accordance with local
regulatory guidelines.
Labels
The type numbers are defined as RD60M**. But in the communication with the
product by means of the firmware (FW), the naming will be CD60M**. This is in line
with the sensor naming i.e. CM60.

General safety instructions
•Read and follow the instructions before using the detector to ensure
safe and proper use.
•Wear an ESD wrist strap, ESD clothes, or ESD gloves when installing or
maintaining the detector.
•Do not install if visible damages are observed on the detector. Inspect
shipping containers for any signs of damage and contact Teledyne DALSA
for assistance.
•Lack of calibration can result in a lower image quality. Periodical check
is necessary to ensure that the detector meets the requirements of targeted
application.
EMC compliance
To ensure EMC compliance, follow these specific guidelines:
•Ensure that all cable shields have a 360electrical connection to the
connector.
•Tightly fasten and secure all connectors.
Warning
•The detector can influence the performance of very sensitive equipment.
•Strong EMC disturbances can influence the detectors performance.
System precautions
The following are precautions that must be taken in order to prevent possible damage
to your Teledyne DALSA Detector:
Warning:
The use of accessories, power supplies and cables other than those specified, with the
exception of cables sold by Teledyne DALSA as replacement parts, may result in
increased emission or decreased immunity of the Shad-o-Scan 3001/4501 Detector.
Static precautions
Observe proper ESD/static control procedures when handling system components.
Do not touch the carbon cover during operation of the detector.
The use of properly grounded wrist strap is highly recommended.

Installation Precautions
Never connect or disconnect cables while power to the detector is on. Damage to the
detector electronics might occur if the cables are connected and/or disconnected while
the detectors power is on.
Service by Qualified Personnel Only
This equipment is to be installed by a qualified technician only. The system can only
be used in conjunction with a properly installed X-ray source with the appropriate
shielding and a properly configured computer workstation that meets the minimum
system requirements discussed later in this manual.

Regulatory Compliance
The Shad-o-Scan has been designed and manufactured in accordance with the
applicable clauses of the international standards and legislations.
•EN 61000-6-3: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) –Generic standards.
Emission standard for residential, commercial and light-industrial
environments
•IEC/EN 61000-6-2: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) –Generic standards.
Immunity standard for industrial environments
•EN 50581/EN IEC 63000: Technical documentations for the assessment of
electrical and electronic products with respect to the restriction of hazardous
substances
Detector Maintenance
Before performing any of the following operations, make sure that the power to the
detector is switched OFF.
Protecting the Detector Front Cover Carbon strip
The carbon strip in the front cover of the detector should be treated with care, as
scratches or debris in this area may produce artifacts in the X-ray image.

Shad-o-Scan User Manual, Rev04 10
Shad-o-Scan 3001/4501 X-Ray Detector Teledyne DALSA
Cleaning the Detector Body and Front Cover
The detector body and front cover can be cleaned with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser
such as isopropyl alcohol. Place a small amount of cleanser on a soft cloth and rub
gently over the detector body surface. Wipe off with a clean soft cloth. Do not use any
harsh cleansers or solvents that may damage the paint or other finishes on the
detector.
In the event of detector exposure to bio-hazardous materials, proper cleaning
procedures should be undertaken prior to removal or maintenance of the detector.
Calibration
To have the best image performance, the raw image data generated by the detector
should be corrected at the host by using a flat field (offset and gain) correction. As the
offset (dark) calibration signal depends (amongst others) on ambient temperature
conditions of the detector, it is commonly accepted good practice to generate these
calibration images frequently at times that the X-ray source is switched off. It is
recommended to re-calibrate the gain correction image at least once per year, or
whenever the X-ray tube is exchanged or anything changes in the X-ray imaging
geometry (e.g. the distance between the X-ray source and the detector).
The detector can contain deviating pixels. To have the best possible image quality it is
advised to perform a defect pixel correction in the host system. It is recommended to
create a defect pixel calibration map at least once every year, or more frequently in
case of heavy use.
To verify if the detector still operates according specification it is advised to measure
on regular base the following performance parameters of the detector: dark reference,
noise performance, flatfield reference, saturation dose and MTF performance.
Open Source Software Licenses
Teledyne DALSA X-ray detector firmware contains open source software provided
under different open source software licenses. More information about these open
source licenses can be found in the documentation that accompanies the firmware.
Recycling
EU Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
The European Union (EU) implemented the EU WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU
requiring producers of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) to manage and
finance the collection, re-use and recycling of the products that producers placed on
the EU market after 13 August 2005. The EU Commission adopted the Implementing
Regulation (EU) 2019/290 establishing the format for registration and reporting of
producers of EEE to the register. The goal of this directive is to minimize the volume
of EEE waste disposal and to encourage re-use and recycling at the end of life.
The WEEE symbol on the product indicates that the product cannot be disposed of
with other household or municipal waste. Teledyne DALSA has labeled its products
with the WEEE symbol to alert the customers that products bearing this label should
not be disposed of in the landfill.
