Start-up, DHHS and X-ray decree area of application Important notes on start-up The MAMMOMAT 300 is adjusted, programmed and tested in the factory, leaving only the adaption to the on-site mains voltage and the functional tests to be performed. When the measurements to be made (kV, mAs, etc.) are within the tolerances stated in these instructions, this confirms that the settings made in the factory have not changed and the equipment is fully serviceable.
Note on delivery state The MAMMOMAT 300 has been tested and adjusted at the factory, and should therefore be ready for operation after completion of the installation. Siemens-Elema AB SPS-UD RX B7-120.033.01.10.02...
