HEAT UNITS INDICATOR

EXPOSURE: Indicates that the X-ray exposure is in progress. It remains
illuminated during the length of exposure. At the same time that radiographic
exposure is being made, an audible signal sounds.
INHIBITION CONDITIONS (ENABLED FILAMENTS): There are one or more
reasons causing an inhibition of exposure, despite the Tube Filaments being
properly enabled.
INHIBITION CONDITIONS (DISABLED FILAMENTS): There are one or more
reasons causing an inhibition of exposure. When the Filaments are disabled
(regardless of whether they have been deactivated via software or some other
issue), the inhibit status icon is shown in blue.
BEFORE PERFORMING AN EXPOSURE, IT IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OPERATOR TO CHECK THAT THE
RADIOGRAPHIC PARAMETERS AND SELECTIONS ARE
APPROPRIATED FOR EACH EXAM.
BE SURE THAT NO LIQUID DROPS NOR OBJECTS ON THE
CONTROL CONSOLE HAVE MODIFIED THE RADIOGRAPHIC
PARAMETERS / SELECTIONS.
This X-ray Generator is equipped with a Heat Unit Calculator. During
exposures, the Heat Units are calculated and totalled.
The "Heat Units" shows the percentage of utilized thermal capacity of the Tube.
For example, "25%" would indicate that 25% of Heat Units capacity is used
(it can be configured by the service engineer).
