System Maintenance Planning

1.3.1

Partial Maintenance
Partial maintenance is performed every 6 months and grouped into 3 core packages:
- Safety Inspections
- Excerpt from Preventive Maintenance (Part 2)
- Image Quality Check

1.3.2

Full Maintenance
Full maintenance is performed every 12 months and includes partial maintenance as well.
To improve planning and maintenance, the individual tasks have been grouped into 4 core
packages as follows :
-

Safety Inspections according to EN 62353:2008


Preventive Maintenance (Part 1)
Preventive Maintenance (Part 2)
Image Quality Check

Each of these 4 packages can be performed independently of the others and includes the
complete instructions in the corresponding chapter. This makes it possible to schedule full
maintenance over several days. The required work times will be extended in accordance
with the corresponding Next steps.

1.3.3

Spirit / Spirit Power and IES of Emotion: Preventive Parts Replacement


APC 750VA UPS (P/N: 03806739 and 03806747) and MGE 1500VA UPS (P/N: 07733376
and 07733368) have to be replaced every 2 years beginning with the date of installation.
The date for the next replacement has to be documented in the Maintenance Protocol.
(Note: MGE 2200VA UPS (P/N: 07735090) and new HenDan 1500VA UPS (P/N:
10049948 and 10049944) are equipped with a long-lasting battery (5 years / 25 C). Therefore, preventive replacement of the UPS is not necessary.)

Checking the drive belt tension


NOTE

Emotion (2007) / Spirit

The drive belt tension has to be measured during system


installation, each time maintenance is performed, and after
replacement of the drive belt. Additional measurements are
unnecessary.

Checking the gantry brake


NOTE

A loose gantry brake may lead to safety-related risks, e.g.,


during tube replacement. The gantry brake has to be checked
during system installation and each time maintenance is performed on the system.

Follow the steps below to check the gantry brake:

Switch off the system and secure it against unintended switch on.
Lock the gantry brake.
With a reasonable force, carefully push the HV tank clockwise to check if the gantry disk
rotates.
If the disk rotates, the gantry brake has to be adjusted.

Replacing the UPS (Spirit / Spirit Power / IES of Emotion)


NOTE

APC 750VA UPS (P/N: 03806739 and 03806747) and MGE


1500VA UPS (P/N: 07733376 and 07733368):
In the container, the environmental temperature expected is
approx. 30 degrees Celsius. This results in a battery life of
approx. 2.5 years.

NOTE

MGE 2200VA UPS (P/N: 07735090) and new HenDan 1500VA


UPS (P/N: 10049948 and 10049944) :
The battery has a long life (5 years / 25C). Therefore preventive replacement of the UPS is not necessary.

NOTE

When replacing the old UPS with a new UPS from a different
supplier (e.g. MGE UPS replaces APC UPS for Spirit), the signal cable delivered with the new UPS must be used!
Refer to "Unpacking/installing components and system wiring" (Print No. CT02-025.812.03.xx.02), Chapter 5 for IMS UPS
details. Refer to "Installation of Hardware and Software
Options" (Print No. CT02-025.814.05.xx.02), chapter 6 for the
IES UPS of Emotion.

PM

UPS replaced (Spirit / Spirit Power)

Switch off the entire system completely.


Disconnect the power supply for the UPS.
Dismount the cable protection cover on the back side of the UPS.
Remove the power supply cables between the UPS and IMS.
Remove signal cable W53 for the ICS.
Replace the UPS with the new one.
NOTE
If the new one is a Hendan UPS (Part number: 10049948 and
10049944), strictly follow the conditions below:

To avoid tipping over during installation, first install the


bracket (accessory) at the bottom of the UPS (rear) with
two screws.

Do NOT lay the UPS on top of the ICS and IRS. Otherwise,
it will damage the computers.

The UPS will be positioned between ICS and IRS (leave a


space between them) in the IMS cabinet. For early versions of the IMS cabinet with insufficient space (Spirit
only), place the UPS in a safe location outside of the cabinet.
