play.
Protective clothing has to be worn for your own protection (safety boots, gloves, etc.).
The components are delivered in a pink plastic film. The film protects against dirt and pre-
vents electrostatic discharge. Some system components contain electrostatically-sensitive
devices.
Switch off the main voltage at the installation location and ensure against accidental switch
on:
• until you start up the system
• before parts or assemblies are replaced.
Beginning with "System Start-Up", power is required.
WARNING [ hz_serdoc_F13G01U05M03 ]
Dangerous voltages are present when the system is switched
on. Dangerous voltages may be present even when the sys-
tem is switched off due to capacity power.
Risk of electric shock!
¹ Observe power-off instructions and discharge wait
times (allow at least five minutes discharge time after
the last scan for all involved HV and UDC/UPS parts).
¹ Secure the system against unintended switch-on (e.g.
block breaker and/or mark breaker against switch on).
¹ Ensure via measurements that all voltages are
switched off.
¹ Connect the stationary and rotating parts of the gantry
to a protective conductor prior to working in the gantry.
Radiation can be released during the steps described under "System Start-up."

gantry covers. Doing so could result in damage or misalign-
ment of the cover panels.
Do not move the gantry across an uneven floor. Hard impact
against the gantry could damage sensitive parts (e.g., ball
bearings).
When transporting the gantry, always check the height and
width of doors and corridors to prevent collisions.
The transport frames have to be uniformly adjusted in height
to prevent the gantry from tilting over.
NOTE The covers of the gantry are easily damageable. Please han-
dle them with the greatest of care.

nections for water supply as shown below (Fig. 175 / p. 157)
and (Fig. 176 / p. 158).
1. Connect the hose with the red mark to the "water outlet" connector at the lower right in
back of the gantry.
NOTE Arrows are printed on the hose. The arrows have to point
away from the gantry.
NOTE Arrows are printed on the hose. The arrows have to point to
the gantry.
NOTE To check for leak tightness, wait two hours after the fill pro-
cedure to insulate the connections.
NOTE The arrows printed on the hose have to point to the indoor
unit water connection (return).
11. Connect the hose with the blue marking to the water supply.
NOTE The arrows printed on the hose have to point away from the
indoor unit water connection (supply).
Install the hose connection pieces. Refer to chapter (Installation of the hose connection
pieces / p. 159).
Filling the cooling water circuit with on-site water supply 10.3
NOTE Prior to filling the cooling water circuit, ensure that the
on-site water pressure does not exceed the maximum limit of
10 bar.
NOTE The hose for condensed water and bleeding air has to first be
connected to an on-site outlet.
The hose is rolled up in the right side of the gantry.
1. Ensure that the hose for condensed water and for bleeding air is connected to the
on-site outlet.
2. Open the on-site water supply (blue hose).
3. Open the on-site return (red hose).
4. Open the stop valve for the outflow of condensed water or for bleeding air. Use the
four-square Allen key attached at the side.
5. Leave the valve open for approx. 10 minutes.
6. Look whether the clear hose for condensed water or bleeding air still contains air bub-
bles.
7. Close the stop valve for the outflow of condensed water or for bleeding air.
8. Wait 15 minutes and repeat the process beginning at step 4.
Filling the cooling water circuit with W/A split cooling system 10.4
NOTE The nominal static water pressure for the Gantry-WCS water
system: 2 bar (± 0.2 bar; when the WCS is switched off).
Refill is mandatory at 1.8 bar.
• Install the brass connector to one end of the garden hose and tighten accordingly. The
brass connector is included in the WCS delivery volume (to connect the filling / draining
hoses to the WCS).
• Remove the brass cap from the gantry water filling valve at the WCS "gantry water
inlet". The cap will be used later to open/close the valve.
• Connect the hose to the gantry water filling valve and tighten it.
• Attach the water connection adapter to the other end of the garden hose (obtain locally
based on the water tap of the on-site water supply).
• Connect the water connection adapter to a nearby water tap (on-site water supply) and
tighten accordingly.
• Install the 2nd brass connector on the second garden hose and tighten it accordingly.
• Remove the brass cap from the gantry water drainage valve at the WCS (next to the
water pump). The cap will be used later to open/close the valve.
• Connect the second garden hose to the "gantry water drainage valve" and tighten.
• The other end of the garden hose must be routed and secured to a drain.
• Open the gantry water drainage valve with one of the brass caps (to open, turn in
counter-clockwise direction).
General information 0
The covers have to be installed in the reverse order that they were removed. Refer to the
instructions in chapter (Removing the covers / p. 58).
Mount the four gantry baseboard covers (Pos. 5/Fig. 188 / p. 169) to the front and rear at
the bottom of the gantry by pushing the pins of the baseboard cover into the corresponding
grommet of the gantry.
• If the cables between gantry and MPT are installed at the floor in a cable trench, mount
the Gantry-MPT baseboard (Pos. 4/Fig. 188 / p. 169) to the gantry (front-center) by
pushing the pins of the baseboard cover into the corresponding grommet of the gantry.
An opening for the cable trench has to be cut out at the middle MPT baseboard as
shown in the figure (Fig. 189 / p. 170). The opening has a line of breakage in the cover.
• Never use sprays. They could seep into assemblies, destroy electrical parts, change
the structure of plastics, or form explosive combinations of air and solvent vapors.
• Never use cleaning agents contains the following components or ingredients:
- Abrasive or organic solvents such as aldehyde, acetone, spot remover, benzene, or
alcohol. These can weaken surfaces or cause hairline fractures that will cause the
material to break under any load (Exceptions: alcohol can be used to clean monitor
screens, and aldehyde-based compounds may be used to disinfect the gantry or the
hardened surfaces of the patient table).
- Cleaning agents that can produce ammonia gas through decomposition or evapora-
tion. Ammonia gas causes stress corrosion.
- Cleaning agents containing silicone. Old silicone causes electrical contact problems.
- Phenol-based or chlorine-releasing disinfectants, which can weaken materials.
Permitted and recommended cleaning agents
• The following cleaning agents may be used to clean the patient table, the patient table
pad, and patient positioning supports.
- Tego, 10% vol.
- Gigasept, 6% vol.
- Somplex Perfekt AC, 2% vol.
- Melsitt, 10% vol. (slightly discolors surfaces)
- Peform, 2% vol. (slightly discolors surfaces)
