1.5 Rotor Identification

Starting 2018, two different Rotor models are available.
• NM/CT 850, 860 & 870 always have Rotor B installed.
• D670 may have either Rotor A or Rotor B installed, and if Rotor A, may or may not have the
redundancy mechanism installed.
Before performing maintenance procedures, it is important to:

• Identify the rotor model
• For Rotor A to identify whether the redundancy mechanism has been implemented
In this document, every time a maintenance task differs between the different gantry rotor models, this
is indicated in the relevant chapter or section.
Before beginning maintenance, familiarize yourself with the different tasks depending on the system
and on the installed NM gantry rotor model. Below is a list of the chapters or sections that are not
common for both rotor models. All other tasks are common for both rotor models.

Planned Maintenance Schedules
Chapter 2 Planned Maintenance Schedules

GE Healthcare Lifecycle Maintenance
GE Healthcare equipment is designed and manufactured to be of the highest quality. Likewise, the
maintenance requirements in the Customer Operation Guides documentation, and the Customer Service
Manuals, are designed to help maintain safe, high quality performance of your equipment for its
expected life.
GE Healthcare Customer Operation Guides documentation, and Service Manuals are designed with the
intent that customers or service providers can utilize them to perform standard maintenance on the
equipment (such as planned maintenance, which is typically time-based) without proprietary service
tools or methods.
Please note, alternative original equipment manufacturer planned maintenance schedules may be
utilized, and other routine maintenance efficiencies may be attained, based on GE Healthcare’s (or its
approved partners’) use of proprietary service tools and methods, including data analytics and back
office capacity. These GE Healthcare proprietary service tools and methods accomplish the prescribed
and necessary routine maintenance activities identified in the CustomerOperation Guides
documentation, and Service Manuals.
Planning Maintenance Visits
IMPORTANT
Since performing all required planned maintenance procedures in a single visit may not be
possible, the following schedule is a suggestion of how to distribute the procedures
between multiple visits. The distribution of procedures is based on commonality between
components/procedures.
Regardless of how you decide to distribute the PM visits, the following guidelines must be
followed:
• All NM service planned maintenance procedures must be performed at least once a
year.
• When procedures are distributed between multiple visits during the year, perform
the following procedures as part of each visit:
1. System safety checks (mandatory)

2. NM image quality checks (mandatory)
3. NM acquisition console maintenance (recommended)
4. NM backup and recording (recommended)
For example:
• If you perform all procedures in a single site visit (single day or consecutive days), all
of the above must be performed during that visit.
• If you have two scheduled visits, in which you will complete the PM, one every 6
months, then 1) and 2) above are mandatory as part of both visits, while 3) and 4)
are recommended during both visits but mandatory in at least one of the visits.
Detailed Schedule
* Schedule C contains only the NM Rotor Screws Inspection and the mandatory per-visit tasks. If the
NM Rotor Screws Inspection is not required because the redundancy mechanism is installed or the
system has a Rotor B, then schedule C can be eliminated.

3.6.3 Profile Sensor Test

NOTE
If advanced service features are available, you can view the Profile Sensor Status in the
Body Contour tab of the Instrument Panel to test the profile sensor. However, this does
not replace the procedure described in this section, which must be performed in all cases.
The profile sensor is designed to detect patient body parts before they come into contact with the
detector and to move the detector OUT. It is effective during body contouring acquisitions such as
Whole Body Step and Shoot or Whole Body Continuous.
The profile sensor response depends on the scan type and the mounted collimator.
This test is based on Whole Body Continuous with the following collimators:
• 870/D670 HEGP or MEGP
• 870CZT/D670CZT WEHR
The profile sensor includes 7 LEDs.

• LED #7 is effective for all collimator types.

When this LED is blocked during a Whole Body Continuous scan, the detector moves OUT until
the obstruction is removed (table movement is not affected).
• LEDs #1-6: the effective LED/s depend on the mounted collimator.
• When any of the effective LED/s for the loaded collimator are blocked during a Whole Body
Continuous scan, the detector moves OUT until the obstruction is removed (table movement
is not affected).
• When non-effective LEDs are blocked during a Whole Body Continuous scan, there is no
change in the scan (The detector remains in place and the table continues to move).
The following table indicates the effective LEDs for each collimator type (if a different
collimator is used).

Review the Safety Manual for Service Users for:
• Instructions and information on LOTO and other safety-related activities
• Torquing information, including:
• Recommended Torque Wrench Practices
• Torque Wrench Information
6.2 Screws Inspection, Torquing and Marking

6.2.1 General Inspection Instructions
IMPORTANT
Always perform the full inspection for all screws and complete the checklist for all
components, indicating any failed screws and corrective action performed.
If any screw fails, continue to inspect all screws.
If any screw fails the visual inspection (see 6.2.4 Screws Inspection, Pass/Fail Criteria and Corrective
Action on page 60):
1. Clean the screw from the previous marking.
2. If the screw can be accessed with a torque wrench, check the screw at the torque specified in the
procedure (80% of the tightening torque value specified for the screw).
• If the screw does not move before the wrench click, the screw status is Pass.
3. If the screw cannot be accessed with a torque wrench, the screw status is determined based on
visual inspection only.
4. If the screw has failed, torque/tighten the screw to the torque specified in the procedure.
NOTE
For Detector screws, follow the tightening instructions in the relevant procedure.
NOTE
A small number of screws must be tightened with an Allen key and not with a torque
wrench, due to limited access.
This is noted in the procedure for each such screw.
5. Mark the screw with a thin slippage line.
6. In the relevant Test Results, mark the component as Passed or Failed. If Failed, in the remarks,
note which screw was torqued/tightened/missing and state whether the screw is fixed or not; if not
fixed, specify the reason.
6.2.2 Marking Screws With a Slippage Line

Safety screws are marked after being tightened or torqued. The stripe should be a single straight and
clear line crossing the screw and the surface, so that it will indicate clearly if the screw has moved or
rotated A.
NOTE
On rails, the mark should cross the embedded screw and the inner surface of the hole in
the rail B and not the rail itself.
6.2.3 Wired Screws

Wired screws have a metal wire running between two screws. This wire prevents the two screws from
coming loose.
• As long as the wire is intact the screws can be considered tightened and torqued regardless of
marking.
• If the wire is torn, inspect the screws per inspection criteria as any other non-wired screws.

This procedure requires an inspection camera to inspect the marking on the blade screws. It is
important to follow these instructions for effective inspection.
1. Insert the camera inside the blade and move the camera to scan the surface of the blade, while
viewing the image on the monitor of the inspection camera.
2. Inspect the screw marking alignment for each screw.
IMPORTANT
The angle from which you view the screw may affect your perception of the marking
alignment.
It is recommended that you view the screw from the top, or align the guide of the
inspection camera with the mark on the gantry body. Use the camera mirror add-on to
improve the viewing angle.
NOTE
There are two types of screws:
Protruding screws: Embedded screws:

3. Proceed to Lateral Rail Screw Inspection.
6.3.9.3 Tightening Radial Blade-to-Linear Bearing Screws

1. In this procedure use the following positions for the different screw groups:
• H-mode, 90° for Radial A Detectors blades
• H-mode, 270° for Radial B Detectors blades
2. Depending on the screw/s you are torquing, prepare the force meter as follows:
a. Set the force meter to Max Force Display.
b. Attach the relevant tool:
• Use the hook (A) to apply upward pulling force for screw groups 1 & 3 (approached from
the left side of the blade).
• Use the wedge (B) to apply downward pushing force for screw groups 2 & 4 (approached
from the right side of the blade).
3. Insert the 5 mm hex bit from the Signet kit into the 8 mm box end of the gear wrench (C).
C
8 mm box end with 10 mm box end to which
5 mm hex bit force should be applied
NOTE
Make sure that the bit is inserted in the correct direction to enable tightening
(clockwise).
4. Insert the bit over the rail (D) until you reach the screw to be tightened.
If the bit does not latch onto the screw, remove the wrench from the blade and rotate the bit
slightly on the wrench (2 clicks), then reinsert the wrench. Repeat until the bit latches onto the
screw.
5. With the wrench in place, attach the force meter to the wrench using the hook or the wedge as
appropriate (see Step 2 on page 88).
6. If you have difficulty reaching the wrench with the force meter:
• To apply downward force, attach a 10 mm Allen key (E) to the 10 mm box end of the wrench
(F).
• To apply upward pulling force, attach a tie-wrap to the 10 mm box end of the wrench.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the Allen key \ tie-wrap are perpendicular (90°) to the wrench and
maintain the 90° during the entire motion.
7. Apply force perpendicular to the tool throughout torquing, until the force meter registers a value of
145 N (14.5 kg).
IMPORTANT
• In order to tighten the screws, you always need to rotate the gear wrench
clockwise.
• Always keep the force meter perpendicular (90°) (G) to the wrench and maintain
the 90° during the entire motion.
8. Remove the wrench and reset the force meter.
NOTE
Make sure that the bit remains attached to the gear wrench when it is removed. If it
remains on the screw, remove it manually.
9. Repeat Step 3 on page 88 through Step 8 on page 90 for all screws that need to be torqued.
10. Mark the screw. If necessary, clean the screw prior to torquing.

7.1 Screws Inspection, Torquing and Marking

7.1.1 General Inspection Instructions
IMPORTANT
Always perform the full inspection for all screws and complete the checklist for all
components, indicating any failed screws and corrective action performed.
If any screw fails, continue to inspect all screws.
If any screw fails the visual inspection (see 7.1.4 Screws Inspection, Pass/Fail Criteria and Corrective
Action on page 127):
1. Clean the screw from the previous marking.
2. If the screw can be accessed with a torque wrench, check the screw at the torque specified in the
procedure (80% of the tightening torque value specified for the screw).
• If the screw does not move before the wrench click, the screw status is Pass.
3. If the screw cannot be accessed with a torque wrench, the screw status is determined based on
visual inspection only.
4. If the screw has failed, torque/tighten the screw to the torque specified in the procedure.
NOTE
For Detector screws, follow the tightening instructions in the relevant procedure.
NOTE
A small number of screws must be tightened with an Allen key and not with a torque
wrench, due to limited access.
This is noted in the procedure for each such screw.
5. Mark the screw with a thin slippage line.
6. In the relevant Test Results, mark the component as Passed or Failed. If Failed, in the remarks,
note which screw was torqued/tightened/missing and state whether the screw is fixed or not; if not
fixed, specify the reason.
7.1.2 Marking Screws With a Slippage Line

Safety screws are marked after being tightened or torqued. The stripe should be a single straight and
clear line crossing the screw and the surface, so that it will indicate clearly if the screw has moved or
rotated A.
NOTE
On rails, the mark should cross the embedded screw and the inner surface of the hole in
the rail B and not the rail itself.
7.1.3 Wired Screws

Wired screws have a metal wire running between two screws. This wire prevents the two screws from
coming loose.
• As long as the wire is intact the screws can be considered tightened and torqued regardless of
marking.
• If the wire is torn, inspect the screws per inspection criteria as any other non-wired screws.

7.1.5 Using the Stubby Allen Key

In places where access is limited, use a stubby Allen key as illustrated below.
On the radial blades, behind the motor, screws #97,101,121,125 (you may have to cut the cable ties and
insert the tool behind the cable bundle)
On the lateral blades, screws #137,139,144,146. Insert the stubby Allen key sideways, then turn it so
that it enters the embedded screw head.
7.2 Replaced FRUs Screw Inspection

Objective Check for any loose screws on critical components. For identification of the components to
be tested, refer to the instructions and workflow below.
Participants 1 field engineer
Preparation Familiarize yourself with the instructions in:

Tools See 1.4 Tools on page 2
This section describes screw inspection for specific components that is performed only if that specific

8.1 Decoy Collimators Inspection

Perform this test for all decoy collimators.
CAUTION
DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT
Do not perform this check using a tool. Accidentally over-tightening the
screws can break the threads.
1. For each decoy edge bar, manually verify that the handles on the front bracket are tightly fastened
and there are no missing screws.
Verify that the handle does not move in relation to the bar to which it is attached. If the handle
moves even slightly, or a screw is loose or missing, the entire decoy edge bar must be replaced.
2. Examine all edge bar screws.

Do not tighten loose screws. If a screw is loose or missing, the entire decoy edge bar must be
replaced.
8.2 Cart and Collimators Inspection

Perform this procedure for each collimator set:
1. Check the wheels for breakage and wear and tear. Replace damaged parts if necessary.
2. Check the functionality of the front and rear cart latches:

3. Move the table to slanted position for collimator exchange and clean the hole in the floor plate (use
a vacuum cleaner and screwdriver to make sure the hole is cleaned thoroughly).
4. Clean the table center puck and make sure it is not damaged.
5. Perform collimator exchange and verify that:
a. Each collimator can be loaded and unloaded without applying excessive force or generating
errors.
b. The system recognizes the collimator type (you can activate a Static acquisition protocol and
view the reported collimator IDs).
c. When the collimator cart is in position, the floor locking pin (D) is inserted into the correct hole
in the floor plate.
d. Once the cart is locked in position, the cart-in-place pin on the detector (E) is pressed.
IMPORTANT
If any of the above checks fails, adjust the collimator cart as described in the

jack screws.
12. Sequentially turning the four M16 lifting screws of the sliders by 1.5…2 turns, lift the CT until the
upper surfaces of the slider plates touch the M8 stopper screws of the Rollers levers (1 screw turn
lifts the Gantry by 2mm). When the CT gantry is in the utmost lifted position, its bottom surface
must be 85mm from the floor.
13. Ensure that no person is standing, or that no object is laying behind the CT gantry.
Place Warning triangles on both sides (left and right) of CT Gantry, to mark possible collision or
damage that may happen during CT gantry movement into Service position.
Routine Procedures
14. Remove the plastic cover in front of the NM gantry to access the gear box of the CT drive device.
15. Install a flexible extender for a 6mm Allen key into the gear box of CT drive device. Attach the other
side of flexible extender into the electrical screwdriver. Using the electrical screwdriver, rotate the
lead screw of the CT drive device via the gear box until the CT gantry reaches Service position
(stopped by M10 screws in the bearing plate).
16. Lower the CT (~ 5 mm) until it resides on four M16 vertical bolts that are part of the CT lock device
assemblies.
17. Secure the CT Gantry in this position, by putting the 4 clamps of CT lock devices in the vertical
position, and tightening the screws on the clamps until these touch the upper surface of slider
plates.
18. Rotate the floor stage central by 180 degrees around its wide side, and put it between the ct gantry
and NM gantry.
A.2 Platform (Deck) Removal and Installation

NOTE
To re-install the platform, perform these steps in reverse order.
1. Unscrew M6 screws connecting the GND cables from the 4 segments to the CT Gantry base.
2. Remove the 4 floor stage segments in this order: Right (1) Left (2) Central (3) Internal (4).

A.3 Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO)

This procedure sets the basic requirements established by GE Healthcare for the energy-blocking (LOTO)
and the isolation of energy required to realize any sort of installation, de-installation, maintenance or
repair of this equipment.
• It is the obligation of each employee to follow these and other instructions of security regarding the
operation of this equipment or works close to these sites.
• Ignoring energy isolation can cause serious injuries or even fatalities.
• Only teams, Field Service and Support Engineers, and the staff of the Engineering Department who
received LOTO (Lock Out/Tag Out) training, are authorized to block or tag the equipment.
• All non-authorized employees of GE Healthcare are (for this purpose) considered to be employees.
• The person who enabled the LOTO procedure should verbally inform all relevant employees of the
date on which the blocking and tagging took place, as well as the date when the equipment will be
operational again.

A.3.1 LOTO Procedure

Before enabling any operation in the subsystem, follow this specific LOTO procedure when the
equipment is under repair.
Figure 7 LOTO Procedure Flow
1. Prepare the equipment for switching it off.

a. Have the specific LOTO procedure in your hands.
Routine Procedures
b. Inform all the staff that equipment operation is about to be stopped.

2. Identify the energies of the system.
a. Establish the energies of the equipment and the subsystem.
b. Identify those points where these energies exist in the system, and their magnitude.
DANGER
Electric risk is from 220VAC to 480 VAC
3. Switch off the equipment.
a. Perform the applicable system shutdown procedure to stop equipment operation (Shut Down).
b. Prohibit equipment operation by switching all buttons to the OFF position.
Routine Procedures
4. Isolate any source of energy.
a. Press the button OFF on the front panel.

This step can be applied only to a system that has ON/OFF buttons.
b. Using only one hand, switch off the energy supply to the equipment through the main switch in
the System Main Disconnect Panel (place the switch in the Switch On or Switch Off position).
Keep your other hand at the side of your body. Keep your face out of the centre of power,
turning it to one side, using protective glasses for this operation.
IMPORTANT
In subsystems that have a UPS, always follow the procedures written in the
service manual of the device.
Routine Procedures
5. Apply LOTO and test that it was successful.
a. Install the locking devices in the System Main Disconnect Panel.

• Padlock
NOTE
• For a PDU which has no padlock, install the locking device in

the switches. If the switch corresponds to the cabinet, apply
the red padlock and the red label in the locking device of the
circuit breaker, or install the red padlock and the red label in
the padlock of Centre of Distribution of General Energy.
• The engineer must always have the key of the red padlock,
and must never give it to other persons.
• Locking device of switch
NOTE
When using the locking device, pay attention that it is in accordance with the
thickness of the rod of the locking device/breaker.
• Hasp device for the multiple Padlock
Routine Procedures
NOTE
In all the activities that require more than one Field Engineer, Support
Engineer or any other authorized person, the Hasp device for the multiple
padlock must be used for all the installations with the respective red padlock
and its label of the same color.
• Red label with the date
b. Perform the Try Out procedure. Make sure that the blocking device does not open, exercising
force with both hands.
NOTE
At the central power distribution box where the circuit breakers are secured with
the circuit breaker locking device, make sure that the corresponding circuit
breaker cannot move to the ON position, or turn power on.
6. Neutralize all stored energies.
Routine Procedures
a. Wait at least five minutes to discharge the stored electric energy in the capacitor, unless the
manual of that specific subsystem indicates a longer waiting time.
7. Verify the isolation of the equipment and of zero energy.
a. Ensure that all the employees are informed.

b. Ensure that all the safety devices are appropriately installed.
c. Localize the feeding circuit of the electric energy in the PDU, using the multimeter to measure
and certify the state of the zero energy. There should not be residual energy of more than 20
VDC in the internal capacitors.
In this case, wait extra time to make sure that the residual energy is less than 20Vdc. Continue
with discharging the capacitator, observe once again the value of the residual energy and
confirm the zero energy in the capacitators.
d. Operate the switch at the bottom of the equipment to confirm that it is not connected.
e. Return the controls of the equipment to the OFF position (or turn them off).
f. For the mechanical locking of the Gantry, try to turn it through the control panel manually
ensuring it is locked.
