Circuit Description

At the active ALE signal, the lower order address (A0-A7) is latched.
1.1.6 GAL
Since Memory mapping technique is used, the chip select signals for various
peripheral devices are generated by the Gated Array Logic IC J28. The inputs are
the address lines (A8 - A15), and the control signals RD and WR . The output lines
are CS1 to CS8 .
These output chip select lines are generated on the basis of the logic implemented
in the program stored in the GAL.

1.1.7 EPROM
The entire program is stored in a single EPROM J32.

1.1.8 NVRAM
The 2 Kbytes NVRAM stores the variables during the operation of the unit.
A0 - A10 and D0 - D7 are the address and the data lines provided to the RAM. The
first 2 Kbytes of entire memory space 0000H to 07FFH is used as RAM.
1.1.9 Keyboard
The keys are accepted through X12 from D601.

J38 and J37 at the address 9000H.

1.1.10 Display
The data bus, the control signal WR and the chip select signal CS2 are provided to
the Display Driver J24 on D601 through X1. Writing the control word and the string
of 8 byte data at the addresses 8000H and 8800H respectively displays the kV and
mAs values and lights up function related LED’s on D915.

1.1.11 Serial Communication

TXD, RxD are provided to the serial communication port of D915. Various activities
of the unit can be controlled by an external device such as a PC. The serial port is
meant for testing and service purposes.

1.1.12 KVsoll and mAsoll

The kVsoll and mAsoll values are generated by Dual Digital to Analog Converter
J17 and the Op-amp J13 acting as I - V converter.
The microcontroller J31 outputs the digital values of kVsoll and mAsoll on the data
bus at address A000H ( CS3 ) and A100H ( CS4 ) respectively. The reference current
for DAC is adjusted by means of presets P6 and P7.

Page 6 of 23
GW10078855.850.01.08.02

Copyright Ó Siemens Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. All rights reserved. Restricted

The kVsoll and mAsoll are fed back to the AN3 and AN4 pins of J31 for ensuring
their proper values. These soll values are also used for regulation of kV and mA.
The kV soll ratio is 1 V = 30 kV and the mAsoll ratio is 1 V = 20 mA.

1.1.13 Line voltage monitoring

The actual mains Line voltage stepped down & converted to DC and through
differential amplifier it is fed to V-Bat input point of ADC. This DC voltage is
monitored every 5 second and line voltage is displayed during selection of hand
held Exposure switch for radiography. If the measured Line voltage is less than 200
volts, microcontroller sends one signal to switch ON the LN contactor which will
support extra voltage through auto transformer for 2.5 KW power generation. This
switching ON/OFF of LN contactor is done every 5 sec. In preparation and exposure
mode contactor retains its position. After 5 second of each termination of
radiography Line voltage is monitored once again.

1.1.14 KV Feedback
The actual kVp across the tube is stepped down and fed back to the Master card
D915 at pins 1, of X 8 as PKV with respect to the common terminal at pin 3.
PKV is passed through the voltage follower J5 and then fed to the Differential
Amplifier formed by J5 to produce kVist used for kV regulation.
(KVist ratio is 1V = 20 kV)
As no differential configuration is used, NKV part is ignored by grounding it.
KVist is fed back to AN7of J31 for monitoring purpose.

1.1.15 IH Feedback
The filament current feedback is taken from the Interface card D602A through
X11.1.
J7 provides a gain of 5 to Ih.
The AC filament current Iheiz is converted in DC value Ih by RMS-DC converter J6.
J9 provides an appropriate gain to Ih (that can be adjusted by preset P5) so that the
ratio 1V = 1.13A holds true. Ih is fed back to J31 at AN2 for monitoring purpose and
the same is used for Ih regulation.

1.1.16 mA Feedback
The tube current (JR) is fed back at pin 5 of X 8 on D915 & is applied to the
Differential Amplifier formed by J4.
The output JR represents the actual tube current mAist which is fed back to J31 at
AN1 through J9 for monitoring purpose. JR is also used for tube current regulation.

Circuit Description

1.1.17 KV Regulation
The kVsoll and kVist values are fed to the P-I controller formed by IC J10.
The difference between the kVist and kVsoll value is amplified to produce an
appropriate error output, so as to compensate the error. The zener V12 limits the
maximum output voltage of the error amplifier to 10V.
The error amplifier output is fed to PLL IC J3, which is used as voltage to frequency
converter. The J10 output voltage produces an equivalent frequency REG at J3
output. For 10V, REG (the maximum firing frequency of the Main Inverter) is approx.
16.5 kHz. J3 is enabled by an active low INH2 signal provided by the microcontroller
J31 at P4.1 through J23. During HT, J3 is enabled through INH2 and J3 results in a
firing frequency of Main Inverter IGBT’s, to result in actual kV in line with the
required value.

1.1.18 Filament Regulation

Filament Regulation is divided into two parts:
1. Regulation without high voltage: The filament current Ih is regulated. CPU J31
feeds the required filament current value to the input of DAC.
2. The actual tube current JR is regulated. J31 outputs the required tube current
on the input of DAC. Depending upon whether the regulation is pre H.T or post
H.T either Ih or JR is selected through HEIZ signal from J31 (P4.4) and used for
regulation together with the corresponding value from the DAC. The output of the
error amplifier J10 is fed to PLL J2, which is configured as voltage to frequency
converter. The PLL J2 is enabled through INH1 signal from J31 (P4.0) and
generates a frequency in line with the output of error amplifier J10 to result in
required filament current or the tube current.

1.1.19 mAs Integration

The actual tube current is applied to the input of V-F converter J1. The transfer ratio
(Frequency to Voltage) of J1 is adjusted by preset P1. The preset P2 is used for
adjusting the offset at the output. The output frequency is selected by J8 only when
the kVist reaches 90% of its final value.
The output of J8 is fed to J31 as timer 0 clock .The timer 0 inside J31 is configured
as timer counter, which is preloaded with a count equivalent to mAs value. The
incoming clock decrements the counter and on reaching ‘0’, generates an interrupt
to terminate the exposure.

1.1.20 Control of the Firing Pulse frequencies REG and CAL

REG is controlled by the signals INH2 and INH3 and it is enabled only when
INH2=0 and INH3 =1.
CAL is enabled only when INH1=0.

1.1.21 Generation of actual Firing Signals

1.1.21.1 Main Inverter Firing Frequency

The pulse duration of the actual firing signals of the Main Inverter is decided by the
Monoshot Multivibrator J21 (IC 4538 Dual Monoshot Multivibrator) and R104, C66
and R105, C67.
The RST pin of J21 is normally high for its proper operation.
The outputs of J21 at pins 6 and 10 are out of phase. These signals are optically
Isolated by J39 and J41 and fed to the Main Inverter Driver (D64) through X20.14
and X20.18.

1.1.21.2 Filament Regulator Firing Frequency

J18 is used to determine the pulse width of the actual firing signals of the Filament
Regulator. The IC J20 ensures that the firing pulses to the Filament regulator are
out of phase. These signals are inverted by J22 and fed to the Filament regulator
firing circuit on D915 through X11.13 and X11.16.
CAL frequency is 0 Hz when error 03 is displayed and to Get CAL during Error 03
display, press DL_SERV key. This is done to overcome the problem of filament
fusing off because even though open path in the filament circuit and filament is fired
continuously for higher value. During this error cod E03 to analyse the fault and get
CAL, press DL_SERV key.

1.1.22 Main Inverter Short Circuit Feedback SCM

During normal operation, the transistor V38 is ON and simultaneously the
optocoupler is also ON. An active LOW error signal at X20.16 turns V39 and
consequently J34 OFF. The J34 output becomes LOW to give the HIGH SCM (Main
Inverter short circuit) signal. SCM is inverted by J22 and then it is fed back to the
micro controller J31 for taking the corrective action.
The three signals SCM, KVM and JIM are used for disabling the Driving pulses of
the Main Inverter. This is done by ORing of these three signals by J14. At the
occurrence of either of these three signals, RST goes LOW and its output is
disabled.

1.1.23 kV max, mA max Feedback

1.1.23.1 KVM maximum kV
If the KVP value exceeds the reference value for 115kV at J12 (Comparator)
its output generates the KVM signal. KVM is also fed back to J31 at P32 as Timer
Zero Interrupt for initiating necessary corrective action like stopping the exposure
instantaneously.

current through F_INV1 and F_INV2 pulses.
2) During exposure, the JRsoll and JRist values are fed to the P-I
controller module in the FPGA. The difference between the JRist and JRsoll
value is used to produce an appropriate error output . The error output
produces an equivalent frequency (filament firing pulses F_INV1 and
F_INV2). Depending on the error signal F_INV1 and F_INV2 frequency

Circuit Description

K2 gets completed and causes the Relay K2 to energise. This causes the contact
K2 to close and provide the ac voltage to the SMPS-1, PS-1, PS-2 (40 watts & 60
watts) and II supply input and Contactor Coil connections. As the coil K2 energises
the contact K2 (6, 8) is established and hence the unit remains ON even if the “ON”
switch is released.
When the switch OFF is pressed the Relay K1 coil is energized and this causes the
Normally Closed contact K1 (4, 6) of relay K1 to open thereby opening the circuit
connections for relay K2. The Unit thus is turned off.

1.4.2 Line voltage measurement

DC voltage is further stepped down using resistor divider network & potentiometer
and given to differential amplifier for line voltage measurement through ADC on

3. CS-44 & mains Neutral 240 V ac for Monitor Trolley.
4. X1.6& mains neutral 240 V ac for Contactor DL Coil Connections.

The Relay US (K3) and LN (K6) coils are energized only when corresponding signal
from the Master Card D915/D915A is obtained. This is achieved through opto-
couplers J3 and J2 respectively. The relay ON signal from the Master Card
D915/D915A intern drives optocoupler J3 / J2 which in turn K3 / K6 relay. The VH
relay (k4) is used to switch over between 24V and 15V supply for large and small

arrangement of controller, driver circuit and final regulator circuit. Out of these three
the controller circuit exists on the Master Card D915/D915A. The driver part J7 and
the series regulator are formed on the Interface PCB D602A.

1.4.5 Filament Supply and Heating

The DC supply of around 15 volts for small focus and 24 volts for large focus is
obtained by Power Supply -1 & Power supply -2 respectively. This is then passed
through passed by 2200µF capacitors. This capacitors help in reducing the heavy

current spikes that might result if a single capacitor of a large value is used. The
collector voltage to V20 transistor is given through NTC 2.5R to reduce inrush
filament current. The firing Pulses for the driver optocoupler J7 are the Drive1 and
Drive2 pulses added together. These pulses switch the driving transistor for the
regulator 2N2222. In this manner the Power transistor BD911 V20 is operated in the
switching mode to obtain the pulsating DC for the filament heating.

1.4.6 Filament Current Feed Back

corresponding to the actual filament current in order to achieve the filament current
regulation during standby and boosting states and Tube Current / mA regulation in
case of exposure state. For this purpose one 0.1 W resistor is introduced in series
with the filament. This gives current to voltage conversion.

Similar to Filament current feedback the tube current feedback is taken from the
Single Tank is available at X2.5 X2.6. The combination of 100R resistances in
parallel give the tube current ratio of 1 V = 20 mA.

resistors R1//R2 (47R//47R),NO contact of CS(since CS is picked),NC contact of LN
relay and rectifier V1.
After 8 Secs of Switch ON the US relay picks up –
§ NC contacts, open disconnecting charging resistors R1&R2.
§ NO contact closes connecting mains voltage through NC contact of LN, V1, and
capacitor bank and across D64+ and D64-.

The line voltage is monitored by the microcontroller, if it falls below 200V AC the LN
relay picks up through optocoupler J2 on D602A
§ And opening the NC contact and disconnecting the mains voltage to the rectifier
input V1.
§ Causing NO contact to close and routing 0-220V AC from primary winding of
mains transformer T1 through 260V tapping to V1, capacitor bank and across
D64+ and D64-.

2.2 Motor Operation

For vertical movement of the C-ARM a 0.5 HP motor is used. This motor has 3 input
wires as yellow, red and blue. When switch S9 or S11 on D601 PCB is pressed,
relay K11 and K13 gets connected to 0V.Hence relay K11 and K13 picks up thereby
opening NC contact of K11 and blocking down movement and closes NO contact of
K13 directing 230V to blue wire of the motor, thereby causing up movement.
When switch S8 or S10 on D601 PCB is pressed, relay K12 and K14 gets
connected to 0V. Hence relay K12 and K14 picks up thereby opening NC contact of

K12 and blocking up movement and closes NO contact of K13 directing 230V to red
wire of the motor, thereby causing down movement.

2.3 Fluoroscopy/ Radiography mode selection

When fluoroscopy mode is selected on D601
§ 15V from power supply PS1 is applied through NC contact of K4 relay. The
output of the Filament circuit is connected to the small focus through NC contact
21, 22 of DL contactor.When a x-ray is triggered through the foot switch, main
inverter pulses from D915/D915A is applied to D64.The output of D64 across
A2, A3 is given resonating capacitor C5, inductor L2, NC contacts 31-32 of DL
contactor to U/V on D512.
When Radiography mode is selected on D601
§ K5 relay coil on D602A is energised. This activates DL contactor coil, closing NO
contacts 3-4, 43-44.Thereby getting large filament and capacitor C4 into circuit.
§ K10 picks up connecting 24 V (PS2) to the filament firing circuit.
§ K4 picks disconnecting 15V(PS1) and connecting 24V(PS2) to the filament firing
circuit

When an exposure is triggered through hand held exposure release switch,

disp1 and disp2/M_INV1 and M_INV2 pulses from D915/D915A is applied to
D64.The output of D64 across A2 is given to inductor L2/L3andresonating
capacitor C4/C5 through DL contactor to V on D512 and output of D64 across
A3 is given to U on D512.

2.4 Switching off the Unit

When the unit is switched OFF by pressing the switch on D601, the relay coil
K1 on D602A is energised causing NC contacts of K1 to open thereby
disconnecting K2 relay. The DC voltage across the capacitor bank discharges
through K8 NC Contact and Resistor R2 and R3.

 SAFETY

1 Safety
1.1 Safety Precautions

Before opening / closing the covers ensure that the

mains is switched off and the plug is removed from
WARNING the socket.
Ensure that the protective earth connections of the
sub assemblies are properly connected.

Precaution should be observed while working on the

single tank. During extensive fluoroscopy, the
temperature of the oil in the single tank tends to
rise. The thermal switch provided on the single tank
NOTICE cuts off the radiation after the temperature reaches
to 60°C. Hence the surface becomes hot and can
cause burns. Avoid contact with the surface of the
single tank at this instance.

Only approved accessories released by Siemens for

use with this product may be used which will reduce
WARNING level of safety of the resulting system and or
damage to equipment

1.2 Overload Protection

The unit is designed to work on 190-240V, single phase, and 15A socket. For safety
purposes 16A HRC fuses are provided which will blow when a current exceeding
16A sustains for its response time.

NOTICE Ensure that the mains socket is properly earthed.

In case of fault if the kVmA tries to build beyond the safe limit of X-ray tube the
protection circuit blocks the HT.
In case of fault if the Filament current tries to increase beyond the safe limit the
protection circuit blocks filament boosting.
Maximum permissible resistance between the Earthing lead terminal in the control
and on the HT transformer shall not exceed 0.1 ohms.

SAFETY

1.3 Radiation Protection

· Do not allow any part of your body to be in the direct line
of radiation.
· Keep maximum possible distances from the object being
radiographed. For this make the best use of 5 mtr of
CAUTION recoilable hand held exposure release switch.
· In the room, wear protective clothing (lead Apron).
· Monitor radiation received using the personal TLD-
badges or pen-dosimeter.

1.4 Measuring with oscilloscope

For normal working, the protective earthing of mains must not be removed.
In case system noise is getting coupled to the scope, use the scope in differential
mode.
To measure high voltage use DIFFERENTIAL probe isolated from ground.
1.5 Handling precautions
1. Strictly observe ESD precautions while handling
PCBs and ESD sensitive devices.
2. After the unit is switched on, the capacitors charge
to 300VDC. (Approx) After switching the unit OFF, it
takes about 4 minutes for capacitors to discharge.
Green LED on D64 indicates the presence of DC
voltage.
3. Lead is used for radiation protection inside the
single tank. The collimator cone is made of lead.
NOTICE Lead is used inside the C-arm profile for counter
balancing. Hence, special precautions should be
observed during handling these parts to avoid lead
poisoning and contamination.
4. If the Temperature of the single tank exceeds 60°C,
then the Temperature sensor (switch) operates
thereby activating temperature high indication on
the top panel (red LED indicated by thermometer
symbol) and blocks fluoroscopy and radiography.
This overload protection will automatically switches
OFF after the temperature of single tank reaches to
(50°C). Cool-down periods are recommended if
used extensively.
1.6 Mechanical Safety
Due to the manoeuvrability of the system, the collision probability of the image
intensifier and the single tank with the patient or the table is greatly increased if
adequate care is not taken.

4.4 Automatic Dosage Regulation

Automatic dose regulation constantly adapts the X-ray radiation to the thickness and
density of the irradiated object in an optimum manner. Through the fast detection of
dose rate, an optimum picture Quality is obtained for a thick object with a minimum
fluoroscopy time. ADR is possible in two different mode of operation 1) Anti-isowatt
and 2) Contrast mode. Fluoroscopy mode is selectable from the control panel (By
default Anti-isowatt mode is selected).
When contrast mode is selected the mA for that particular object is increased hence
the contrast of the image increases when compared to anti-isowatt mode. Check for
the same.
The detection circle of the ABC signal is 1/3rd the diameter size of the circle blanking
with same centre as that of the image. The pixel shades over the entire circle are
averaged to generate a signal proportional to the brightness / contrast level. This
ABC signal varies from – 8V DC corresponding to total darkness and +8V DC, to
bright image.
This signal is sent to PCB D602A, which generates a proportional signal to be
applied as the Automatic Dose Regulation (ADR) signal to the analog port of
microcontroller in PCB D915. The circuit on the PCB D602A consists of level shifter
followed by unity gain buffer in inverting mode-using TLO82. The output of this
circuit is a signal proportional to the darkness / brightness level. The magnitude
varies from 0 to 5V DC.
To Adjust the PCB, the following potentiometers are to be tuned
Remove all cable connections coming to the PCB D602A.
Remove IC J12: TL 082, which is mounted on the socket.
Connect a Multimeter between test point ABC and J12 socket pin 2.
Adjust resistance: 126K using VR3
Resistance between test point Agnd and J12 socket pin 6
Adjust resistance: 48.33K using VR2
Resistance between test point J12 socket pin 6 and pin7
Adjust resistance: 49.65 K using VR1.
In case of dose adjustment only VR2 pot will be adjusted slightly in either clockwise
or anticlockwise depending on the dose requirements.

After resistance adjustment, Use FTP-2000 pattern to correct the ADR value
precisely, Place FTP-2000 on image intensifier as shown in picture, Select the
Fluoroscopy ADR mode In Anti-Isowatt mode, adjust the potentiometer on D602A
PCB till kV, mA displays 62-63 kV, 1.7-1.8 mA respectively.

4.4.1 ADR Stop Mode (Manual)

In ADR Stop Mode, adjustment of kV and mA is possible manually. In cases where
small adjustments of contrast is required to view the finer details of the image, the
kV and mA values can be adjusted by pressing the ADR stop switch.
When a metallic object comes in the X-ray path (e.g. a marker) or when the
deviation in object density is large (e.g. Repositioning a fracture), it may be required
to fix the kV Values earlier regulated in the automatic mode. Selection of Contrast
mode is not possible in the ADR stop mode.

4.5 Replacing the single tank

To replace the single tank, remove it from the C arm as follows:
Ø Bring the C-arm in the horizontal position such that the axis of the x-ray tube
and II are in the horizontal plane fully extended. Lock the brake of the trag
arm so that the C arm does not move. Place a wooden block or any packing
material of appropriate size below the base tray of the C-arm so that on
removing the single there is no damage to the base tray as well as personnel
injury as the unit may fall behind due to balancing problem.
Ø Remove the side cover and top cover by removing the ornamental screw.
Ø Disconnect the Single Tank connections by removing connections from D512
and the earthing point.
Ø Remove the temperature sensor connection.
Ø Loosen the Socket headed screw (3 nos at bottom of single tank mounting
plate) used to anchor the single tank to the C-arm using Allen key.
Ø Lift the single tank off vertically and place it on a soft base.
Ø Detach the collimator by loosening 4x alignment studs

5.1 INTRODUCTION
The Image intensifier camera (IIC) consists of a PCB and lens assembly. At the
heart of the IIC system, is the video processor. The video processor acquires
images from the Image Intensifier interface and performs operations on the acquired
image. The power subsystem provides regulated power to the video processor and
the other components. Clocks needed for the various digital components are derived
from the clock generation subsystem. The X-ray generator interface enables
connection with the X-ray generator. The configuration interface is used to set the
various adjustable parameters of the IIC.

3. Check as per the inspection sheet supplied with the product whether the system
sensitivity has decreased as compared with that at the time of installation or not. . If
the sensitivity has decreased, check whether there is dust on the CMOS surface. If
there is dust on the CMOS surface, wipe off the dust with a clean soft cloth. If there
is no dust on the CMOS surface, the cause is due to the decrease of the II
brightness. Compensate for low brightness by widening the lens aperture.
However, do not open the aperture wider than F/2, to prevent peripheral resolution
from being decreased.

Description of Front panel:
Keyboard:
On the front panel, the keys are grouped into four functional groups: (from left to right)
the CAPTURE, PROCESS, USB/LAN and MEMORY groups. A valid key press
produces a “short beep” sound from the buzzer, while an invalid key produces a “long
beep”. In addition, an infrared (IR) detector is present on the front panel.

ROTARY DIAL:
A rotary dial is present on the right side of the front panel. This is used as a flexible
input device to change images on the REF monitor, adjust rotation, or edit
parameters in the system configuration.
The Rotary Dial is similar to the tuning control knob on a Radio, and can be rotated
clockwise or anti-clockwise. The Dial could also be depressed (CLICKed) to perform

certain operations. Each of these operations (turning clockwise, anti-clockwise or

clicking) has special meanings depending on the operating context.

USB connector:
A USB2.0 full speed connector is present on the front panel to connect pen drives for
storing / reading captured images.

INFRA-RED (IR) REMOTE:

The keys on the IR remote are essentially the same as those on the front panel. The
main differences are: on the IR remote, the Rotary Dial functions are carried out by
the four arrow keys at the bottom.
The left and right arrow keys on IR remote produce the same effect as rotating the
Dial in an anti-clockwise or clockwise direction.
Up or down arrow keys simulate the CLICK function of the dial.

LIH (Last Image Hold)- Mode:

When the footswitch is pressed, X-Ray is turned ON and live real time image is
displayed. When foot switch is released, last image is frozen on the screen. LIH is the
default mode on power up.

LIVE-Mode:
The live image is shown when X-ray is ON, but image is not captured when the
footswitch is released.
This mode can be used to compare the live image against an image captured earlier
(on the LIH Monitor)

screws. Loosen the grubs and adjust eccentric of bearing holder pins with help of
Allen key to adjust the eccentric.
5. Tighten the grubs and refix the rubber covers.

8.1.3 V- BELT
The V-Belt is used for the transfer of power from the motor pulley to the main pulley.
If the tension in the belt is not sufficient or if it is loose, there will be loss of power
due to slip, resulting in noisy up-down motion, wobbling of the belt, rubbing sound,
jerks etc, which can cause inconvenience to the doctor during operation. Hence the
belt has to be maintained in a tight position.
1. Lift the unit from the rear side and place some wooden support below the rear
wheels so that there can be an access for tightening the belt.
2. Now, remove the housing cover.
3. Loosen the screws of the motor from bottom side of the trolley base.
4. Pull the motor towards the backside so that the belt is under tension. At this point
tighten the screws of the motor.
5. Place the unit back on the floor.
6. Refix the covers.
7. In case the motor fails during use of equipment and the C-Arm needs to be
moved it can be done by moving the V-Belt below the housing trolley base.

8.1.4 CHAIN
Roll-on chain is used in the steering mechanism. The chain is routed through the
sprockets of two rear wheels, 4 idler sprockets, and the drive shaft. The chain is in
two halves and there are two adjustable nuts provided to adjust the tension in the
chain.
When the chain is loose, there is a tendency that the chain can slip off from the
sprockets, hence proper tension should be maintained in the chain.
For adjusting the tension in the chain, following are the steps
a) Lift the unit up from the rear side and place a wooden platform below both the
rear wheels.
b) Locate the adjustable nuts in the chain.

f) Place the unit on the floor and operate the steering lever to check the
movement.

8.2 Parts which needs servicing or replacements

Following are the parts that may need replacement or servicing depending upon
the frequency of use.
1. V - Belt
2. Bearings
3. Brake liners
8.2.1 V-Belt
The V-Belt may undergo wear and tear after a period of one year or so depending
upon the use of the up-down movement. Hence, the worn out belt may cause
troubles such as slip (Causing jerky movement), noise and can also fail (rupture)
and make the machine idle.
Hence, it is the responsibility of the service engineer to keep a watch on these
activities and change the belt from time to time.

8.2.2 Bearings
Bearings, generally doesn’t get worn out under clinical conditions. Only possibility
that cannot be ruled out is the wearing out of balls after a period of five to eight
years. This may cause noise in the movement and misalignment of movement.
Hence, it is the duty of the service engineer to clean and grease the bearings
regularly.

Following bearings can be serviced periodically.

1. Bearings of Guide bracket.

This bearing needs periodic greasing or oiling; as this bearing is responsible for
your smooth up-down movement .The procedure is as follows.

MECHANICAL CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS

Ø Check whether it is an electrical problem or a mechanical problem.

Ø The electrical problems can be such as loose contacts, removal of wire from the
limit switch or contactor etc.
Ø If it is a mechanical problem, it could be any one of the above mentioned. In such
case trace the problem in the following way.
NOTE: The solutions are listed out in steps for rectifying up down movement of the
column. One must follow the procedure and stop at the particular point where he
gets the solution or remedy.
9. First of all, lift the unit up and place some wooden blocks below the rear wheels
so that there is sufficient access to work from under side.
9. Check whether the V-Belt is in good condition and is not broken.
9. Try to rotate the main pulley manually and see whether it is free and not getting
stuck. Power on the motor and give a few jerks. Now try to move the column up
and down. See whether you can get a smooth movement. If the movement is
fine, you can stop at this stage. The cause of problem could have been some
fine rust or dirt particles, which might have got stuck in the spindle threads.
9. If the pulley has got stuck completely and does not move freely, then the tube
assembly has to be dismantled. This case only occurs when the limit switch fails
and the unit goes to the maximum upper limit or to the minimum lower limit.
9. In case the unit reaches the maximum upper limit, the safety nut locks the
spindle and stops any further movement, hence preventing the machine from
falling on to the patient. In such case the complete tube and column assembly
has to be dismantled and reassembled using new spindle (if required i.e. if the
threads are not damaged, the same spindle can be used)
9. In case, the lower limit switch fails, the column moves to the minimum lower limit,
the guide hits the bottom stopper, upwards thrust is developed and the universal
bearing comes out of the bearing holder, pulling the pulley close to the base
frame and the movement gets stuck.
