2 Temperature Indicators 7
1.1.1 Indicators
Blue adhesive stickers with a temperature printed on them. The basic color of the inside
square is white (temperature not exceeded). If the admissible temperature is exceeded,
that inside square turns black.

The temperature indicators on the SIRECON housing are located in the vicinity of the
identification labels. These indicators must be read prior to beginning installation.
If one or both indicators on the I.I. housing show that the admissible temperature has
been exceeded by a color change, the 37˚C indicator on the OPTILUX tube unit absolutely
must be read. Access to these indicators is described on the following pages.
The I.I. models used in these systems have 37˚C and 40˚C temperature indicators only
on the outside, in the vicinity of the identification labels. For the procedure, see ( SIRE‐
MOBIL Compact / L, SIREMOBIL Iso-C, POWERMOBIL, ARCOSKOP, ARCADIS Varic and AR‐
CADIS Orbic / Page 7).
If exceeding the admissible temperature of 37˚C is also found for the I.I. tube, the
OPTILUX tube unit must also be replaced.
Exceptions: SIRECON 40-4 HDR, SIRECON 33-4 HDR-WA, SIRECON 33-4 HDR/W, SIRE‐
CON 33-4 HDR-WD, SIRECON 23-3 HDR-DA, SIRECON 23-3 HDR-DQ, SIRE‐
CON 23-3 HDR-D, SIRECON 23-3 HDR-DL, SIRECON 23-3 HDR-DX, SIRE‐
CON 17-2 HDR-L (LITHOSTAR 2), SIRECON 23 ISX, SIRECON 33 MD and
SIRECON 33 are replaced completely.
If no change in color is found, remove the temperature indicators on the SIRECON hous‐
ing prior to turning the unit over to the customer.
Return of the SIRECON unit or the OPTILUX tube unit to the factory must be made with
the completed image intensifier-tube unit questionnaire.
2.1.5.1 Procedure:
The I.I. housing types used on these systems only have externally readable temperature
indicators for 37C and 40C, which are located near the identification labels.
Read the two temperature indicators and evaluate them per the following description.
If there are differences to the values that were determined (within the listed tolerances)
prior to replacing the I.I., make sure that there are no other errors in the system (e.g. in‐
correct adjustment of the optical focus, electrical focus...).
If there are no longer any differences after making the repair, remove the two tempera‐
ture indicators and continue with startup. Otherwise, replace the I.I.

1. With this Sirecon, the housing is not a bonded housing, but because of its internal design, the input
screen and the MU metal can be damaged.
2.2.9.1 Procedure:
The I.I. housing types used on these systems only have externally readable temperature
indicators for 37C and 40C, which are located near the identification labels.
Read the two temperature indicators and evaluate them per the following description.
n Take note of the surface of the image intensifier housing ( 2/Fig. 7 Page 14).
n Remove the appropriate cover panel.
n Read the temperature indicators as in ( 1/Fig. 7 Page 14).

n Remove the cover and power supply and read the temperature indicators as in
( 1/Fig. 8 Page 15) and ( 1/Fig. 9 Page 15).

n Lift the power supply until the temperature indicators to the right of the cable become
visible ( 1/Fig. 16 Page 18) and read the temperature indicators.
