Preamble
1General information
To simplify handling and editorial effort for the current CT System Planning Guide (CT Sys-
tem PG) a common ...
• CT Basic Planning Guide (CT Basic PG) and
• CT Options Planning Guide (CT Options PG)
were developed.
Therefore, the CT Basic PG and the CT System PG must be used in addition when plan-
ning a CT system.
CT Basic PG 0
It includes both common information as well as facts independent of CT model or version

that are necessary for planning CT systems.
The basic requirements for planning CT systems may be identical for some systems inde-
pendent of the version model.
Therefore, in this CT System PG you find links to the CT Basic PG.
CT Options PG 0
There are CT options available and used by more than one CT system regardless of the
CT model or version.
This CT Options PG includes only the required planning information for the CT options that
are used by more than one CT system.
The content of this CT Options PG is limited to the technically required information to plan
the on-site preparation of the corresponding option only.
Therefore, in this CT System PG you find links to the CT Options PG.

Floor and building vibrations 0
General
Floor and building vibrations can reduce image quality.
Sources that produce vibrations are, e.g.,
• Railroad routes
• Subways
• Roads
• Road work and construction sites
• Hospital power plants
• Mines, open-cast mines, quarries (explosions)
• Ferry moorings
• Any other sources of striking vibrations
The CT system is not sensitive to common vibrations. If the CT is away from vibrational
sources, or the CT is replacing a CT system that to date has not shown image quality prob-
lems due to vibrations, it is usually not necessary to execute vibrational measurements.
If there are any doubts, the following thresholds have to be verified by measurement:
In the 3 spatial directions, acceleration in vibrations at the mounting points of the computed
tomography system (Gantry and Patient Handling System PHS) must not exceed the
thresholds as described in the following sections.

44 Room planning
Continuous vibrations
Fig. 23: Permissible acceleration for continuous vibration (diagram)
Notes:
• The threshold is defined as acceleration rms value (root mean square) in m/s2 of an
FFT spectrum derived with a frequency resolution of 1 Hz and using a Hanning window.
• The vibrations have to be measured with a sampling rate of 1000 Hz using an anti-alias-
ing-filter with a limit frequency of 250 Hz.
• The threshold is valid for vibrations at the installation location with a CT in position.
• Measurements are usually taken at the site before the installation of the CT. Changes in
the eigenfrequency of the slab caused by the additional mass of the CT have to be con-
sidered when comparing the frequency spectrum with the threshold.
• Values of the threshold are given in (Tab. 12 / p. 44).
Transient vibrations (shocks)

Any transient vibration has to be less than 0.5 m/s2 peak-to-peak in the time domain.
• The vibrations have to be measured with a sampling rate of 1000 Hz.

Service • Installation of on-site shutoff valves and pressure gauges in the

on-site cooling water connection is recommended.
• A measuring system to gather the temperature and the flow rate in
the on-site cooling circuit is integrated in the cooling system/gantry.
The values can be displayed via software on the monitor for service
purposes.
1. After startup, servicing of the filter, such as cleaning, maintenance and so on, is the customer's responsibility. SIEMENS
does not monitor or service the filter.
2. An interface heat exchanger separates 2 existing cooling circuits. The gantry cooling circuit then becomes a closed cool-
ing circuit and cannot be polluted by particles from the on-site cooling circuit.

Climatic influence due to structural room conditions 0
Structural room conditions, such as:

• windows and large glass areas,
• building and room thermal insulation,
• room size, room volume, and so on.
influences the climatic room conditions for the air-cooled gantry and other air-cooled CT
system components in general.
The project manager must take these climatic influences into account by when dimension-
ing a new room or checking the air conditions in an existing on-site room.

Siemens Remote Services (SRS) 3.7
In order to pursue a consistent Siemens Med service strategy, all CT systems must have
working SRS connections at the time of hand-over to the customer.
Siemens EPS (Enhanced Productivity Services) and RUH (Remote Update Handling) are
part of the Siemens Med Strategy and require a mandatory broadband VPN connection.
Consider line types such as ISDN or analog as fallback methods only.
All planning-related information for SRS must be taken from the “SRS Planning Guide”,

Maximum distances between fastening points 0
The lengths of the cable kits that can be ordered are identical to the free cable lengths for
routing between the components. The cable lengths required for internal routing within the
components are already added to the lengths of the cable kits that can be ordered. As a
result, the final cable lengths delivered consist of both the lengths of the cable kits plus the
required length for internal routing. They are therefore always longer than the original
length of the cable kit specified.
“Maximum distance, fixed points” means the distance from the floor cut-out to the floor
cut-out between the components.
