Adapting OPCOMP
If the factory-set OPCOMP is not to the customer's satisfaction, an adjustment can be
done with the tautness factors in the "Best compression table", see Service Instructions.
A lower tautness value will increase the compression force and vice versa.

compress.
The compression movement must be interrupted by OPCOMP before 20 kg is
reached, i.e. at 5-15 kg depending on the material (4/ Fig. 1) used.
OPCOMP has been thoroughly tested by Siemens. If any factors
are changed, OPCOMP will no longer be an optimization of com-
pression force and image quality according to Siemens' clinical
test.
