1. INTRODUCTION
HiRay 5 is the most advanced portable and high-power X-Ray unit available both for the fi eld and clinic application, which is
120 kV in tube voltage, and 5 kW in maximum output power. The built-in collimator with 2 crossing lines and 2 laser pointers
confi rm an easy and quick acquirement of each radiographic position, limiting the need for remarks. By means of the automatic
mAs control technique, the real kV selected on the panel is always maintained even at the place where the line voltage is
dropped by high impedance in order to obtain the expected fi rm result.
HiRay 5 is the mono block type, including:
• Generator (includes X-Ray tube in the H.T. Transformer with 5-kW inverter)
• Built-in collimator and 2 laser pointers
• Line cable
• Hand switch with curled cable

3. THE APR TECHNIQUE
How to use of APR Function
1. Selecting APR mode. (APR on).
Push APR switch (No. 15 of Fig. 5). Then, the APR lamp lights and the APR function is activated.
2. Selecting APR techniques:
• Set body direction by selecting VD/DV or LATERAL switch (No. 16 of Fig. 5).
• Set body size by selecting body size switches (No. 17 of Fig. 5).
• Set body position by selecting body position switches (No. 18 of Fig. 5).
• After all settings are fi nished, selected radiation techniques will be displayed on kV and mAs indicators (No. 25 and 26
of Fig. 5). Then, the preparation of exposure is completed.
Storing new APR Data in Memory (Initialization or Renewal)
1. If the APR function is off, press the APR switch (No. 15 of Fig. 5).
2. Select a body direction, using the body direction switches (No. 16 of Fig. 5).
3. Select a body size, using the body size switches (No. 17 of Fig. 5).
4. Select an APR position to which new data are stored, using the position switches (No. 18 of Fig. 5).
5. Set new kV and mAs data by using the kV and mAs switches (No. 19, 20, 21, and 22 of Fig. 5).
6. Keep pushing the APR switch (No. 15 of Fig. 5) for approximately 2 seconds until the buzzer sounds. Then, new APR data
are stored in the memory.
Note!
There are no factory settings in the APR memory. Please register a set of APR data for your application before you
use the unit fi rst time.

4. OPERATION
Assembly
Unpack the unit and inspect it for possible damage. Extend the cable out to their fullest length. Pay careful attention to the
cables and inspect them for worn or broken insulation. If they show signs of undue wear, do not plug the unit in or attempt
to use it. Connect a plug of the hand switch cable to the socket (No. 6 of Fig. 4) for a plug of the hand switch cable.
Then connect a plug of the line cable to the socket (No. 9 of Fig. 4) for a plug of the line cable and the other plug to the power
source, confi rming the power switch (No. 8 of Fig. 4) is at “OFF” position.
Preparation before making the Exposure
At the fi rst installation or if the unit has not been used for more than 2 weeks, a warming up procedure of the X-Ray tube is
necessary to ensure the longevity of the X-Ray tube (tube aging).
A recommended warming up procedure is as below:
1. Suffi cient radiation protection should be taken.
2. Make the following exposures at 15 seconds intervals:
– 5 exposures at 60 kV/ 5.0 mAs
– 5 exposures at 80 kV/ 5.0 mAs
– 5 exposures at 120 kV/ 5.0 mAs
Once this aging procedure is performed, it is not required for next time. So the unit is ready for immediate exposure unless
has been not in use for more than 2 weeks.
How to Operate
1. Turn the power switch (No. 8 of Fig. 4) to “ON” position and make sure the kV and mAs displays (No. 25 and 26 of Fig. 5) are
lighted.
2. Select proper technique for the exposure, using the kV selector and mAs selector (No. 19, 20, 21 and 22 of Fig. 5).
3. In case the APR technique is to use please see pages 10 and 11 (The APR technique).
4. By pressing the collimator lamp switch (No. 23 of Fig. 5), the halogen lamp is lighted. Illuminated area is adjusted by
turning two X-Ray fi eld adjustment knobs (No. 3 of Fig. 3 and No. 4 of Fig. 2).
The center of the X-Ray fi eld is obtained by two crossing lines. Two laser pointers (No. 12 of Fig. 1) are also lighted.
Thus the crossing point (the distance between two beams at the crossing point is within 5 mm) of these laser beam makes
it possible to obtain quick and easy confi rmation of 75 ± 2 cm of SID and almost the center of a radiographic fi eld (which is
considered to be within the range of 1.5 cm from center of the crossing point of the collimator) at 75 cm of SID even under
the sunlight. Those lights are extinguished automatically after 30 seconds in order to save the life of bulbs and prevent from
overheating.
5. To make an exposure, press the hand switch half way down. After about 2 seconds after this fi rst push, the fi lament of the
tube is heated. The ready lamp lights after the heating of fi lament.
Then depress the hand switch fully down for X-Ray exposure. The X-Ray lamp lights during the exposure, which informs
you about the exposure. Audible buzzer sounds at the end of the exposure
6. After the exposure, the wait lamp lights and next exposure is ready when this lamp is extinguished. This wait lamp also
works as the alarm lamp and the lamp is fl ickering continuously in case any issue occurs in the circuit.

Notes!
• The exposure should be created by two step depression as stated above. However, full depression at one time
is also possible. In this case, the exposure is obtained after approx. 2 seconds after the full depression.
• The exposure button of the hand switch should be depressed until the exposure is fully completed.
• The exposure can be terminated at any time by releasing the exposure button. The wait lamp is fl ickering after
this interruption. Press reset button to return the unit to normal operation.
• The unit needs to have a waiting period of 10 seconds until next exposure in order to protect the system from
damage by overheating that would be caused by continuous exposures. The waiting time is fi xed at 10 seconds.
No exposures can be taken during this period.
• DThe device is only to be operated with the included original cable (Fig. 6).
• The device is explicitly to be used with the help of a stand (Fig. 7).
Caution!
Do not place the laser pointer for direct eye exposure since the laser beam is dangerous to the eyes.

6. POWER SOURCE FOR HIRAY 5
The recommended input conditions of the HiRay 5 are as follows:
1. Input voltage: AC 200 – 240 V
2. Input current: 30 A (input current depends on the exposure conditions and the input voltage)
Please take the following precautions during installation:
Case A:
To attain maximum performance, connect the HiRay 5 to a 30 A or higher power source, setting the circuit breaker at
30 A.
Wire size of the power cord: AWG12
Length of the cord: 6 m or less
Connect the power cord directly to the breaker on the
electrical circuit
HiRay 5

Case B:
If using the HiRay 5 with a receptacle, do not connect other devices to the same circuit.

Case C:
Operation of the HiRay 5 is not advised if other devices share the same circuit. Adequate power cannot be supplied
to the HiRay 5 and can overload the circuit tripping breaker resulting in a decline in output power of the X-Ray and
potential damage to the HiRay 5 and the other devices on the circuit.

Other Precautions
• The permissible range of the input voltage is ± 10 % of the rated value (180 V – 264 V AC). If exceeding the range, use a
transformer to step down the voltage to the appropriate value.
• Make sure to ground the HiRay 5 to avoid electrical shock.
• Pay attention to the change of the input voltage during exposure, if it drops under 180 V due to a drop in voltage, the HiRay
5 might malfunction even though it was installed correctly as in either Case A or Case B above.
• When using wired connection as noted in Case B, after unplugging the HiRay 5 do not touch its electrode directly after
unplugging it as there is a danger of electric shock. Wait for at least 10 seconds for the unit to discharge.
• To avoid dropping the input voltage, do not use an extension cord.
