efficiently
Make all electrical connections with equipment while outside the patient
environment. Do not touch a connector and the patient at the same time.
Do not remove any of the assembly covers. Only trained service representatives
should perform repairs.
Do not place food or beverage containers on any part of the equipment. They
can tip over and introduce conductive substances into the electrical circuitry.
Always remove power to the X-Ray before cleaning. Use a slightly damp cloth
or sponge for cleaning.
WARNING: Electrical circuits inside the equipment use voltages which are
capable of causing serious injury or death from electric shock. To avoid this
hazard, never remove any of the cabinet covers.
1. SWITCH OFF:
If this is not possible, PROTECT YOURSELF with dry insulating material and pull
the victim clear off the conductor. DO NOT TOUCH THE VICTIM WITH YOUR
BARE HANDS until he is clear off the conductor, but DO NOT WASTE TIME.
3. If the jaw is rigid, try to force the mouth open by pressure on the gum behind
the last molar tooth of the lower jaw. When the upper air passages are cleared,
tilt the head backward and force the jaw forwards from the angles of the jaw in
front of the ears.
4. (a) Then hold the chin up and forward with one hand and pinch the nostrils of the
victim with the other.
(b) Take a very deep breath and apply your mouth to that of the victim and
blow into his mouth, until the chest of the victim moves up indicating filling of
the lungs (NEVER ALLOW THE CHIN TO SAG).When the chest has moved up,
withdraw your mouth and allow the chest to sink back
REPEAT this process every three to four seconds until the victim begins to
breathe again or until he is taken over by a medical attendant. This method can
be continued in an ambulance during transit of the patient from the site of

under standard safe light.
5. The Intensifying screens should be handled with care and touching the screens
with fingers should be avoided.
6. The Developer and the Fixer solutions should always be covered and preferably
new solutions to be prepared after every 30-40 days or after 250 films whichever
is earlier.
8. Solutions should be stirred with wooden stick each time films are dipped. Separate
wooden sticks, each for developer and fixer should be used.
2. Take out the exposed film and fix it in the hanger of suitable size.
3. Dip the film in the Developer. After about 15 seconds take out the film from the
Developer to visually observe the Developing status. Dip it again and take out to
monitor the development as frequently as possible.

CHAPTER 7 - MAINTENANCE
Regular Maintenance of the x-ray System is necessary for safe and trouble free use.
Periodic maintenance helps in reducing equipment downtime, service cost and
operational hazards.
a) Since only trained & qualified personnel should be permitted access to the
internal portion of the X- Ray unit. It is recommended that Service and
Maintenance be performed by our local BPLMTPL Service Engineer.
b) User should confine only to preserve the exterior appearance of the unit by
cleaning the unit with dry cloth. It is recommended to take suitable precautions
against accumulation of dust etc. on the Control Panel, Tube Head etc. Dust
Covers may be used.
c) BPLMTPL maintains a Nation Wide network of Service Centres from which the

remove any possible build-up of paper residue.
Always store the disposable electrodes within the temperature range recommended on
the pack.
It is not, however, possible to exclude radio signals coming from transmitters such as
mobile phones or similar mobile radio devices. These and other transmitting devices,
including those in compliance with the EMC standards, may influence the proper
functioning of medical apparatus when used in proximity and with a relatively high
transmitting power. Therefore, the use of radio equipment proximity to electronically
controlled systems must be avoided in order to eliminate any interference risk.

During the use of x-rays, personnel present in the room must comply with the
following rules concerning protection against ionizing radiation:
Alternatively, the device and/or its accessories must be handed over to specific
organization who deals with recycling of electrical and electronic devices.
By facilitating correct disposal of the product and its accessories, you are protecting the
environment and health of mankind. Recycling of material allow reduced usage of raw
materials. More information on product recycling can be obtained from your local

4. All Hazardous material like Lead etc. to be disposed off as per Local Norms.
5. In case the machine is in working condition & has to installed at a new Location,
please ensure that it is packed & safely transported to the new location.
6. In case the machine has completed its Life Of usage & has to be disposed off,
please ensure that such disposal is carried out meeting the local Laws.
Check AERB regulations for any special steps you must take during the disposal
process. These may be posted on the AERB website. AERB requires that the machine be
registered at a specific address, and changing the location of the machine means re-
registering it at the new address.
An x-ray machine that is not plugged into an electrical source cannot emit x-rays, so it is
important to unplug a machine that should not be used. Disable the x-ray unit inside the
machine by removing the Tube head. Be careful not to break the x-ray tube. This tube is
under vacuum and any breakage could make the glass splinter and cause injury to
anyone nearby.
The procedure for decommissioning x-ray machines depends on the type of the
generating device and its construction. Some manufacturers, upon purchase, provide
users with the option to return the equipment for disposal at a cost. The cost varies
among manufacturers. If the return option is not available, the machine could be
disassembled according to the manufacturer‟s specific procedures and its individual
components disposed of accordingly.
X-ray machines do not present a radiation hazard when they are not in operation.
Additionally, activation of structural components is not likely due to the nature of the
produced radiation and its interaction with the structural materials. However, many
structural components are built with materials that may be considered hazardous (e.g.,
lead, tungsten) for disposal purposes. These materials may be segregated and disposed
of according to the Local regulatory agency & of AERB regulations.
H RAD 32
X-ray generating machines are to be registered with the regulatory agency (AERB)
having jurisdiction. It is recommended that users contact the regulatory agency and
seek advice regarding specific requirements prior to dismantling and disposing of any x-
ray generating device. Additionally, a license is required for the use of x-ray machines;
the user should seek removal of the machine from its license upon decommissioning and
disposal.
Do not dispose the device or its accessories along with domestic waste.
Follow local regulations for disposal.
