DRT-MAN-066 6
EVS 4343 User’s Manual 1. Safety information
WARNING
Handling
The system, in whole or in part, cannot be modified in any way without written approval from DRTECH.
- Have the patient take a sixed posture and do not let patient touch parts unnecessarily.
If the patient touched connectors or switches, it may result in electric shock or malfunction of
the equipment.
- Clean the plug of the power cord periodically by unplugging it from the AC outlet and
removing dust or dirt from the plug, its periphery and AC oulet with a dry cloth.
If the cord is kept plugged in for a long time in a dusty, humid or sootyplace, dust around the
plug will attract moisture, and this could cause insulation failure that could result in a fire.
- For safety reasons, be sure to turn OFF the power to each piece of equipment when
the insections indicated in this manual are going to be performed..
Otherwise, electric shocks may occur.
DRT-MAN-066 7
EVS 4343 User’s Manual 1. Safety information

System Diagnostic
Calibration
To ensure optimal performance of the system, it is important to verify that the system is calibrated.
Before exposure
- Be sure to check the equipment daily and confirm that it works properly.
- Sudden heating the room in clod area will cause condensation to form on the equipment. In this case, wait
until the condensation evaproates before performing an exposure. If the equipment is used while the
condensation formed on it, problems may occur in the quality of captureed image. When an air-conditioner
is used, be sure to raise/lower the temperature gradually so that a difference in temperature in the room and
in the equipment does not occur, to prevent condensation.
During exposure
Do not use the detector near devices generating a strong magnetic field. Doing so may produce image noise or
artifacts.
DRT-MAN-066 10
EVS 4343 User’s Manual 1. Safety information
- To reduce the electric shock hazard, the system must be connected to an electrical ground.

2-1. Features
- The shape of the detector, which is identical to that of a conventional film cassette complying with ISO4090,
enables digital radiography in the existing analog radiography configuration
- The new sensor with 140 μm of pixel pitch and CsI (Cesium Iodide) ), Gadox (Gadolinium Oxysulfide) used
for the scintillator produces high resolution (approx. 9.43 Mega pixels) digital images within the effective
imaging area (430 x 430 mm) with low doses of X-rays
- Depending on the operating conditions at each site, the wiring unit (optional) enables the equipment to be
used through expansion to a wired connection

a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic
site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the EVS 4343 is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the EVS 4343 should be observed to verify normal
