10-3 Why do maintenance

It has been determined by engineering that your Vivid T9/Vivid
T8 does not have any high wear components that fail with use,
therefore no Periodic Maintenance inspections are mandatory.
However, some customers' Quality Assurance Programs may
require additional tasks and or inspections at a different
frequency than listed in this manual.
It is good business practice that ultrasound facilities maintain
records of periodic and corrective maintenance. The Ultrasound
Periodic Maintenance Inspection Certificate provides the
customer with documentation that the Ultrasound system is
maintained on a periodic basis.
A copy of the Ultrasound Periodic Maintenance Inspection
Certificate should be kept in the same room or near the
Ultrasound system.
