15. Maintenance
15.1 Yearly Scheduled Maintenance.
Like all precision products, the ScanX Swift requires a certain
amount of care on a regularly scheduled basis . A well-organized
maintenance program aids dependable equipment operation
and reduces problems to a minimum . Yearly service carried out
by an Air Techniques trained and certified technician will ensure
continued uninterrupted operation . These routine checks help to
detect general overall wear, and replacement of parts can often be
made before a problem occurs .
15.2 Phosphor Storage Plates (PSPs).
PSP's are subject to "wear" on the black side during normal
handling and use . They can appear scratched, while the sensitive
blue side remains relatively "smooth" . This scratched look on the
black side has absolutely no effect on the quality of the image and
should be expected under normal conditions . If the phosphor side is
scratched make sure the plates are being handled properly and not
being dragged from ScanX Swift outlet pad area or other surfaces
that could cause scratching of the plate . Make sure to review the
Plates information provided by section 12 of this manual .
