3. RADIATION SAFETY
1. Users and operators should wear appropriate protecting devices and clothes.
2. Stay distance from the radiant sources and all the possible secondary radiation zones.
4. The distance from the focus to skin should be kept at least 8 inch (20cm).
5. For the experimental uses, apply the lowest possible values of kV, mAs and exposure time.
7. The contraindications for pregnant patient or children to avoid unnecessary ionizing radiation
exposure.
CAUTION
X-ray radiation exposure may be damaging to health, with some effects being cumulative and extending over
periods of many months or even years. X-ray operators should avoid any exposure to the primary beam
and take protective measures to safeguard against scatter radiation. Scatter radiation is caused by any object
in the path of the primary beam and may be of equal or less intensity than the primary beam that exposes the
film.
No practical design can incorporate complete protection for operators or service personnel who do not take
adequate safety precautions. Service and operating personnel only authorized and properly trained by
ECOTRON should be allowed to work with this X-ray system equipment. The appropriate personnel must
be made aware of the inherent dangers associated with the servicing of high voltage equipment and the
danger of excessive exposure to X-ray radiation during system operation.
Wear protective clothing. Protective aprons and gloves with an equivalent of a minimum of 1/64”(0.35mm)
of lead are recommended.
To protect the patient against radiation, always use radiation protection accessories in addition to devices
which are fitted to the X-ray system
Keep as large a distance as possible away from the object being exposed and the X-ray tube assembly.
Never operate this X-ray system in areas where there is a risk of explosion. Detergents and disinfectants,
including those used on patients, may create explosive mixtures of gases. Please observe the relevant
regulations.
The operator console or anything electrically connected to it, must never be used within 6ft(1.8m) of the
patient environment.
Do not operate the x-ray system in direct sunlight or near any heat sources.
Do not operate the x-ray system near strong magnetic fields(microwave ovens, speakers, etc), and avoid
routing the x-ray system near these devices.
The x-ray system must be operated in locations that are clean (free of excess dust, dirt, debris, etc),
stable (free of vibration).
Only trained maintenance staff may remove the covers of the x-ray system.
Contain an instruction not to position the ME EQUIPMENT so that it is difficult to operate the
disconnection device.

SYMBOL Description
NOTE
Internal X-ray system components will heat up during normal use of the x-ray system. This is similar to X-ray
tube heating during normal x-ray system operation. The amount of heat produced is proportional to the
product of kV,mA and time.
CAUTION
NOTE
Use the procedure when the generator has not been used for several days. This procedure provides for
exposures at medium power before the tube is used at maximum mA or kV values. This will reduce the
possibility of damaging the X-ray tube and high voltage components. No test setup is required.
For maximum stability and reliability, use the following techniques at start up:
● 60 kV / 5 mAs
● Make three to five exposures at 5 minute intervals.

5. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
EPX-SERIES is a radiological device for professional radiologist uses. It should be applied for the
radiographic diagnosis and operated by qualified practitioners. Users have to comply with safety and health
regulations concerning the ionizing radiation protection and the electrical and mechanical safety of the
veterinary medical devices.
b. Stay at least 6.5feet (2m) away from the unit or extend the cord of hand switch as long as possible in order
to secure enough space for your safety.
c. Use proper field size and technical values for each procedure to minimize x-ray exposure dose and obtain
the best radiographic result.
d. When you make exposure to the patient on the bed, ask visitors to leave the room first and keep
appropriate distance from the patient.
e. Pay attention to the maintenance schedule of the device and keep up with it.
f. Cumulative radiation dose usually does not exceed recommended maximum levels. However, if you make
radiographic exposures using high kV and mAs quite often, the evaluation of the specialist is needed to
check whether extra protective devices are necessary for the user or not.
b. Arrange the SID (Source to Image Receptor Distance) using a tape measure (2 meter) located on the side
of the collimator. When the SID is 1 meter, the device is shown the best performance.
c. Turn on the collimator lamp and laser pointer by the pushing collimator/laser switch is on.
d. Adjust the size of the x-ray beam in accordance with the film size using the x-ray field adjustment knobs.
The collimator and laser pointer will be turned off after 30 seconds by internal timer.
CAUTION
CAUTION
FOR THE FIRST TIME INSTALLATION OF THE (MACHINE) OR OPERATION AFTER LONG
PERIOD OF NON-USE, IT NEEDS TO BE PREHEATED TO SECURE LONG SERVICE LIFE
OF THE TUBE. FOLLOWING METHOD OF PILOT TEST WILL RELIEVE THE DAMAGE ON
THE X-RAY TUBE. OPERATE THE (MACHINE) WITH LOW KV / MAS VALUES (50 KV / 5
MAS) THREE TIMES IN ROW AND EXECUTE WITH HIGHER VALUES (70KV/5MAS)
THREE TIMES IN ROW AGAIN. THEN HIGH KV/MAS VALUES (90 KV / 5 MAS) WILL BE
APPLIED WITHOUT TROUBLE.
CAUTION
IF THE OPERATOR USES TO CONTINUE TWO TIMES THAT IS HIGH TUBE VOLTAGE AND
HIGH MAS CONDITION, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO USE AGAIN AFTER 5 MINUTE REST
TIME.
WARNING

recommended intervals, which have
been calculated using the equations,
should be maintained. These
calculations should be made in
accordance with all of the Diagnostic X-
ray System’s parts (including switches)
and its transmitter-receiver’s frequency.
Recommended intervals:
Conductive d = 1.17√p
It is very difficult to accurately predict the magnetic field strength of wireless (mobile/wireless)
telephones, land mobile radio base station, amateur wireless, AM, FM wireless and TV broadcasting
systems. To assess electromagnetic settings using fixed RF receivers, area walkdown is needed. If the
magnetic field strength measured at the point where the Diagnostic X-ray System is used exceeds the
applicable RF compliance level, you should check whether the Diagnostic X-ray System is operating
normally. Should any performance abnormality is observed, additional action may be needed such as
changing the Diagnostic X-ray System’s direction or location. At the frequency range between 150kHz
and 80MHz, the magnetic field strength should be less than 3v/m.
Recommended intervals between the Diagnostic X-ray System and the portable or mobile RF
communications equipment
The Diagnostic X-ray System should be used in an electromagnetic setting where RF communication
interferences are controlled. Users of the Diagnostic X-ray System should maintain the minimum
intervals between the System and the portable or mobile RF communications equipments to prevent
electromagnetic interferences more effectively.

For maximum power voltages of receivers not on the above list, the recommended interval, d(m), can
be calculated by using the equation used for the receiver’s frequency. The p is the transmitter-
receiver’s maximum power rating in watts (W).
Note 1 : The high-frequency range is applied at 80MHz and 800MHz.
Note 2 : This guideline does not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic waves may be affected through
absorption into and reflection from structures, objects and people.

ECOTRON strongly suggests reducing radiation dose to As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) in all
patients, especially pediatric and small patients, whenever it is determined that an x-ray is necessary.
X-ray is an extremely valuable tool for diagnosing injury and disease, but its use is not without risk. This
section discusses the importance of minimizing the radiation dose in children and small adults consistent with
ALARA principles. Topics covered include:
Pediatric Use
Optimize Pediatric Protocols for your facility
What Do I Need to Know About?
Pediatric Use
Radiation exposure is a concern in both adults and children. However, children are more sensitive to
radiation. Using the same exposure parameters on a child as used on an adult may result in larger doses
to the child. X-ray settings can be adjusted to reduce dose significantly while maintaining diagnostic image
quality.
Everyone shares the responsibility of minimizing pediatrics dose. There are several steps that can be taken
to reduce the amount of radiation that pediatrics and small patients receive from x-ray examinations.
