system.
High voltage symbol used to indicate the presence of

high voltage.
Warning symbol used to indicate a potential hazard to

operators, service personnel or to the equipment.. It
indicates a requirement to refer to the accompanying
documentation for details.
HV 3 MINUTES WARNING LABEL
This label is attached on the main power board.

The DC link capacitor(approximately 325 VDC with line voltage
at 230VAC) will remain charged for up to 3 minutes after the AC
mains is disconnected or the AC switch is switched off.
DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE LABEL

This label attached to the main fuse cover, main noise filter
cover and FET driver board. Main voltage is present inside the x-
ray system whenever the main disconnect is switched on.

X-ray radiation exposure may be damaging to health, with some effects being cumulative and extending
over periods of many months or even years. X-ray operators should avoid any exposure to the
primary beam and take protective measures to safeguard against scatter radiation. Scatter radiation is
caused by any object in the path of the primary beam and may be of equal or less intensity than the
primary beam that exposes the film.
No practical design can incorporate complete protection for operators or service personnel who do not
take adequate safety precautions. Only authorized and properly trained service and operating
personnel should be allowed to work with this X-ray system equipment. The appropriate personnel
must be made aware of the inherent dangers associated with the servicing of high voltage equipment
and the danger of excessive exposure to X-ray radiation during system operation.
● Wear protective clothing. Protective aprons and gloves with an equivalent of a minimum of
1/64”(0.35mm) of lead are recommended.
● To protect the patient against radiation, always use radiation protection accessories in addition to
devices which are fitted to the X-ray system
● Keep as large a distance as possible away from the object being exposed and the X-ray tube assembly.
● Never operate this X-ray system in areas where there is a risk of explosion. Detergents and
11
Manual ver1.3
disinfectants, including those used on patients, may create explosive mixtures of gases. Please
observe the relevant regulations.
● The operator console or anything electrically connected to it, must never be used within 6ft(1.8m) of
the patient environment.
● Do not place liquids(coffee, beverages, flowers, etc) on the X-ray system.
● Do not operate the x-ray system in direct sunlight or near any heat sources.
● Do not operate the x-ray system near strong magnetic fields(microwave ovens, speakers, etc), and
avoid routing the x-ray system near these devices.
● The x-ray system must be operated in locations that are clean(free of excess dust, dirt, debris, etc),
stable(free of vibration).
● Only trained maintenance staff may remove the covers of the x-ray system.

4.4. EPX-Series DUTY CYCLE LIMIT
THE FOLLOWING SECTION CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE

READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS MATERIAL BEFORE CONTINUING.
Internal X-ray system components will heat up during normal use of the x-ray system. This is similar to X-ray tube
heating during normal x-ray system operation. The amount of heat produced is proportional to the product of kV,mA
and time.
THIS X-RAY SYSTEM HAS TEMPERATURE MONITORING OF FET-DRIVE

BOARD TO PROTECT THE EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILD-UP.
IF THE X-RAY SYSTEM DETECTS THE OVER-HEAT OF FET-DRIVE, AN ERROR
CODE “E04” OR “E05” WILL BE DISPLAYED. EXPOSURE WILL BE INHIBITED
WHEN THIS MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED, AND IT SHOULD BE UNDERSTOOD
THAT CONTINUING TO MAKE EXPOSURES MIGHT CAUSE X-RAY SYSTEM
DAMAGE DUE TO OVERHEATING. THE GENERATOR SHOULD BE ALLOWED
TO COOL SUFFICIENTLY SUCH THAT THIS MESSAGE IS NO LONGER
DISPLAYED.
21
Manual ver1.3
4.5 DAILY X-RAY TUBE WARM-UP PROCEDURE
THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE PRODUCES X-RAYS. OBSERVE ALL SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT PERSONNEL.
Use the procedure when the generator has not been used for several days. This procedure provides for exposures
at medium power before the tube is used at maximum mA or kV values. This will reduce the possibility of damaging
the X-ray tube and high voltage components. No test setup is required.
For maximum stability and reliability, use the following techniques at start up:
Select the following:
● 60kV/5mA.
● Make three to five exposures at 30 second intervals.

The EPX series X-ray system with CE marking comply with the European Council Directive concerning Medical
Devices. One of the harmonized standards of this Directive defines the permitted levels of electromagnetic
emission from this equipment and its required immunity from the electromagnetic emission of other devise.
It is not possible, however to exclude with absolute certainty the possibility that other high frequency electronic
equipment, which is fully compliant to the EMC regulations, will not adverse effect the operation of this x-ray system.
If the other equipment has a comparatively high level of transmission power and is in close proximity to the
generator, these EMC concerns (the risk of interference) may as mobile telephones, cordless microphones and
other similar mobile radio equipment be restricted from the vicinity of this X-ray system.

5. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
EPX Series is a radiological device for veterinary uses. It should be applied for the radiographic
diagnosis and operated by qualified practitioners. Users have to comply with safety and health
regulations concerning the ionizing radiation protection and the electrical and mechanical safety of the
veterinary medical devices.
PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
1. Operation Practices
a. Wear a lead apron while making exposures.
b. Stay at least 6.5feet (2m) away from the unit or extend the cord of hand switch as long as possible
in order to secure enough space for your safety.
c. Use proper field size and technical values for each procedure to minimize x-ray exposure dose and
obtain the best radiographic result.
d. When you make exposure to the patient on the bed, ask visitors to leave the room first and keep
appropriate distance from the patient.
e. Pay attention to the maintenance schedule of the device and keep up with it.
f. Cumulative radiation dose usually does not exceed recommended maximum levels. However, if you
make radiographic exposures using high kV and mAs quite often, the evaluation of the specialist is
needed to check whether extra protective devices are necessary for the user or not.
2. Positioning of the patient against the collimator
a. Place a loaded cassette on the patient’s backside.
b. Arrange the SID (Source to Image Receptor Distance) using a tape measure located on the side of
the collimator.
c. Turn on the collimator lamp and laser pointer by the pushing collimator/laser switch is on.
d. Adjust the size of the x-ray beam in accordance with the film size using the x-ray field
39
Manual ver1.3
adjustment knobs. The collimator and laser pointer will be turned off after 30 seconds by internal
timer.
Please check whether the voltage and frequency of the input power
are in accordance with the figures written in the system labels,
which attached on the body of the machine. The level of input
WARNING voltage fluctuation should be within ±10% of the nominal values.
The operation of the machine should not be started unless all

verifications and connections are fully ceked.
CAUTION
For the first time installation of the (machine) or operation after long
period of non-use, it needs to be preheated to secure long service
life of the tube. Following method of pilot test will relieve the
damage on the x-ray tube. Operate the (machine) with low KV/mAs
values (50KV/5mAs) three times in row and execute with higher
CAUTION
values (70KV/5mAs) three times in row again. Then high KV/mAs
values (90kV/5mAs) will be applied without trouble.

2. DIP Switch setting
DIP Switches are used for following setting.

SW #1: ERROR Enable (ON)/Disable (OFF)
SW #2: Reserved
SW #3: Initialize memories (reserved)
SW #4: Calibration mode (ON)/Normal mode (Off)
For normal operation, only the DIP SW#1 must be set to ON position.

3. Hard-wired hand switch control
3.1 Introduction
The Exposure Hand Switch consists of a two step hand switch.
The first (1) stage of the hand switch is called the “Preparation (Prep or READY)” stage.
The second (2) stage of the hand switch is called the “Exposure (Exp or X-Ray Out)“ stage.
SWITCH 1
SWITCH 2
3.2 Exposure process
There are two ways to use the hand switch to get the exposure.
a. Press and hold the Switch #1 for longer than 1 second, which will get the “Prep or
Ready” status on, then press Switch #2 to get the “Exposure”.
b. Press and hold the Switch #1 and Switch #2 simultaneously for longer than 1
second. This action will result in “Prep or Ready” status and “Exposure” at the same
time.
