Page 28 Chapter 1 - Introduction
Section 2.0
Responsibility of Purchaser
2.1 Customer Room Prep Items
The CT air intake is near the bottom of the gantry. Fine dust as listed below will be deposited
throughout the gantry, table, console and PDU electronics. This fine dust cannot be completely
removed and can be damaging to electronic components.
For these reasons, the scanner should be the last item installed in your CT suite area.
“Pre-installation” is work necessary to plan and prepare a site for installation of equipment.
Pre-installation work helps the user (customer) avoid:
• Application delay and scheduling
• Surprise siting discoveries
• Installation confusion
• Waste of manpower
The following MUST be completed before installation work can begin for a GE CT scanner:
• Completely finished:
- Wall painted or have final wall covering
- Ceiling tiles installed and no remaining ceiling work is required
- Final floors covering installed with no remaining dust causing floor work required
- All room millwork installed as shown on the site print
- All plumbing work in the CT suite is completed
- No construction in or around the scan suite AREA that will produce:
* Concrete dust
* Drywall dust
* Ceiling tile dust
* Wood sawdust or shaving
* Dust tracked into the CT suite area
• Active Broad Band connection
- A completed network connection is required for ALL CT installations.
- A GE Healthcare network specialist may be required to complete the VPN connection.
This may take a week or longer to schedule.
• Power available to A1, with provision for Lockout/Tagout at the A1 disconnect
If a UPS is required, a GE A1 breaker* will be needed to complete this installation. Refer
to the electrical section for more details.
NOTICE SERVICE NOTICE: An improperly prepared site (i.e., one that is in a state of construction)
can result in increased installation time.
A CT scanner installed in a dirty environment is more prone to contamination, which can
result in decreased reliability and increased scanner downtime.
