Ultrasound Technologies Ltd 2.4. Dismantling Instructions Special Note: -The instrument must not be dismantled when in use on a patient, ensure all accessories are disconnected. 2.5. Audio Unit The Audio unit houses the main circuit board. To remove the circuit board, turn the unit onto it's front and remove the three M4 countersunk screws.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd 2.6 Transducers The transducers are a ‘sealed unit’. However, it is possible to gain access to the 2 MHz assembly by removing the two blanking grommets and M3 countersink screws. Removing the screws will allow the assembly to be split along its length. Gently prise the assembly apart.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd Circuit Description Introduction The circuit has been divided into functional blocks with each block being described separately, the blocks are as follows: • Audio Unit Power Supply • Battery Low Indicator • Ultrasound Transducer • Oscillator and Detector •...
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd With the exception of the 2MHz Fetal transducer, the electronics are housed in the main audio unit. The oscillator and detector are built up of four discrete sections. These are the master oscillator, transmitter amplifier, receiver amplifier and detector.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd Test and Calibration Introduction The following sections detail tests to ensure that the unit is operating within specification. These tests may be performed in whole or part, however, if any repairs are carried out to the power supply circuits then it is recommended that the whole test / calibration procedure is undertaken.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd Using a pair of tweezers, Introduce noise into pin 4 of J4. Rotate the volume control through its complete range of travel and observe the audio output from the speaker increases and decreases accordingly. Transducer Transmitter Set the DC Power Supply to 9Vdc, solder the +ve lead to pin 1 of J1 and the –ve lead to J1 pin 2 on the board under test.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd Fault finding guidelines This section is an aid to trouble shooting and should be used in conjunction with the relevant circuit diagrams found at the rear of this manual. In each case the re calibration must be carried out after any repair.
Ultrasound Technologies Ltd Parts list The following section contains parts lists for the following items: - • PD1+ Audio PCB assembly • PD1 Audio PCB assembly • PD1 2MHz Probe assembly • PD1 Final assembly • PD1+ Final assembly PD1+ Audio PCB Assembly...
