Note: Solid conductors are NOT suitable. Stranded or flexible cables MUST be used. (2450/1/385) ixALL metal parts of items such as tables, tubestands and tracks must be securely earthad at the point indicated in the Pre-installation Schedule and layout drawiags, then returned to the main earth point at the main isolator in the X-ray room, A stranded conductor of suftable erossvsectional area may be used or a copper strip of cross-section not less than lomn x 2.5nm. A tail of 0.5 metre should be lett for connection by the Installation Engineer. The resistance between any earthed wetal part and the main earch point mist not excced 0. lohn as specified in paragraph 7 of DHSS General Technical Clauses 1973. All leads must be enclosed in steel conduit or trunking. Normally all connections to terminals will be made by PICKER Equi pment Engineers. GENERAL STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS Fach installation must be investigated by an Architett or Surveyor to determine the size of gitders and other bearers required to support the Weight of equipments installed. PREPARATION OF CEILING Gelling tracks can be fixed directly to the ceiling but, normally, « board is required which must be of hardwood nor less chan 40mm chick. For widen, lengch and positions, refer to layout drawing. Ceiling boards ust be level and capable of supporting the moving load stated in the relevant pre-installation instruction and mst be firmly bolted to the cefling or other fixings. Aecess to tho upper side of the board should be possible for the Installation Enginear co bolt the tracks in position. CEILING MOUNTED TUBE SUPPORTS The lateral movement of ceiling tracks mist not be greater then 3nmj if necessary f1t cross~aembers between girders or use some other nethod to prevent excessive lateral novenent. FLOOR TO CEILING MOUNTED TUBE SUPPORTS - MOBILE The ceiling board and floor track must be plumb level to within a tolerance of 3mm in che position #howa on the layout drawing. FLOOR TO CEILING/WALL MOUNTED TUBE SUPPORTS & BUCKY STANDS Provide and fit a hardwood fixing board to the ceiling or wall. The board should be a minimum size of 230m x 230um x 40mm. Fixings for the board mist not coincide with the f1xings on the extension tube plate or ceiling tracks. for the maxinum loading on the extension tube plate Fixings, refer to the pre=installacion instructions. 5 (2450/1/385)CBILING SUPPORT FOR HT CABLES A eetLing board SOmm wide {s normally required to support the Capitol Track and Fittings, together with the KT cables. for length and position refer to the layout drawing. PREPARATION OF FLOOR A level floor surface must be provided for all equipments, No part of the floor area concerned may be more than Imm from the nominal floor level. ‘The areas aver which the equipments are to he fixed mst be checked with che aid of a straight edge, and any high spots renoved uneil che areas are within tolerance. If che floor eannot be improved or is coo weak, bearers of the type as shown in the pre-installation instruction should be Let into tho floor. The upper surface of the bearers must be level in all directions and the bearink surface aust not be lower than the highest point of the adjacent floor. In rooms where a new concrete or composition floor is being laid, built in bearers may be considered. FLOOR TRACKS: When a flush floor track is to be used a suitable channel must be made in the floor, or a channelled bearer provided. (See pre-installation schedules).

Circuit diagrams for the R500 Series 2 are given in Appendix 2. HT Transformer O11 Level Remove the HT transformer cover (see para. 4.3.2). Romove the oil-filler cover (see Fig. 2) from the iT transformer. CAUTION: Conpiete the following steps as soon as possible to prevent NOTE e contamination of the ofl. Cheek that the cil level is between 25am (lin) and 38am (1in) from the oll filler cop. Use a clean implement such as a screndriver as a dipstick. 1, The levels specified are at normal anbleat tenperature of 20°C. 2. Export units may heve 23 litre (5 gallons) of oil despatched separately. Transfer the oil to the HT transformer using a funnel with a fine gauze to filter out any impurities. Add the oil slowly, directing it so that the aininum nusber of air bubbles are formed. 3. Only use DIALA grade B Shell or equivalent ofl. If the ofl level is low, add oil as detailed in Note 2 above. Refit the oil-filler cover having first removed the vent screw from it. (The vent screw is fitted to provent oil spillege during transit.) CAUTION The vent screw mast be removed when the KT transformer is in P 43 43 Refit the UT transformer cover. Removing and Reficting Covers Control Console To gain access to the interior of the Control Console for installation (2450/1 /385) 9connections and adjustuents, it 1s necessary to remove the covers (sce Figure 3)+ When work has been completed, the covers must be refitted. 4.3.2 HT Transformer To gain access to the HT transformer terminals, it is necessary to remove the cover. To do this, the four cover securing screws must be unscrewed (see Figure 2)- When work has been eoapleted, the cover mist be refitted. 4.4 Connecting the Control Console a The two flexible conduits from the previred wall box (see Figure 6) enter the Console through 2 holes in the base panel at the appropriate side. B Cable clampe are used -to gccure the conduits to the left-hand side panel of the Console. © The two conduits contain 120 light-duty conductors (5 of viich are spare) and 8 heavy-duty ones. D ‘The light-duty conductors are formed into 8 branches. Each branch is terminated by a multi-way terminal strip, with the first and lest vire on the etrip being ideated with numbers corresponding to those on the fixed terminal strip to which it is to be connected. E There are 8 fixed terminal strips on the left-hand side panel of the Console (eee Figure 4), the top strip being allocated for Gecomat connaction- P Connect the flexible conduit wiring stripe to the corresponding fixed terminal strips and check that the flexible condult terminal strip dents correspond to the numbers on the fixed terminal strips. 6 ‘The heavy-duty conductors are divided into three groups which are to be secured to the main terminal board on the Console as follows: 10 (2450/2/0486)(2450/2/0486) LINE COMPENSATOR SWITCH TERMINAL STRIPS CONSOLE LEFT HAND SIDE FIG.
