THEORY
OF OPERATION
3-1
3-2
OVERVIEW
Models QW-400, QW-420, QW-420-D and QW-420-S feature sufficient vertical travel to
accommodate all upright exams, and fail-safe electromagnetic locks for secure image
receptor positioning.
MECHANICAL OPERATION - MODELS QW-420, QW-420-D, QW-420-S
Smooth vertical (upward and downward) image receptor movement is achieved by
attachment of the receptor to a Vertical Trolley, which rides on eight spring-loaded
radial ball bearings along with four metal shielded guide bearings bolted to it.
MECHANICAL OPERATION - MODEL QW-400
Smooth vertical (upward and downward) image receptor movement is achieved by
attachment of the receptor to a set of fourspring-loaded Receptor Bearing Guides.
ELECTRICAL OPERATION - MODELS QW-420, QW-420-D, QW-420-S
See Figure 5-1 in Chapter 5, DIAGRAMS.
Two fail-safe brakes (24 VDC electromagnets) are located at the top of the vertical
column (part of the Vertical Pulley/Brake Assembly). When the electromagnets are
de-activated (i.e., the Receptor Cabinet Lock Release Button is not pressed), the fail-
safe brakes "grab" the counterweight cable pulleys securely, locking the vertical
motion of the receptor cabinet. Pressing the Receptor Cabinet Lock Release Button
energizes the 24 VDC electromagnets, releasing the fail-safe brakes and allowing the
counterweight cable pulleys to spin freely thereby enabling vertical motion of the
receptor cabinet.
ELECTRICAL OPERATION - MODEL QW-400
See Figure 5-2 in Chapter 5, DIAGRAMS.
A fail-safe brake (24 VDC electromagnets) is located at the top right corner of the ver-
tical frame. When the electromagnet is de-activated (i.e., the Receptor Cabinet Lock
Release Button is not pressed), the fail-safe brake "grabs" the counterweight cable
pulley securely, locking the vertical motion of the receptor cabinet. Pressing the
Receptor Cabinet Lock Release Button energizes the 24 VDC electromagnet, releasing
the fail-safe brake and allowing the counterweight cable pulley to spin freely thereby
enabling vertical motion of the receptor cabinet.

require power to be supplied to the unit, extreme
care MUST be exercised to insure the safety of
service or other personnel in the area.
SERVICE MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Always disconnect the equipment

from the main power supply prior to any cleaning.
Verify that the equipment is properly grounded
before attempting any electrical operation. Never
use abrasive polish on this equipment.
Cleaning
The Vertical Wall Stand/Frame’s Front Cover surface should be wiped
clean. Painted metal surfaces should be cleaned using a clean cloth
slightly moistened in warm soapy water (use mild soap). Wipe dry with a
clean wet cloth.
Visual Inspection
A complete series of inspections and functional checks was conducted at
installation to insure proper operation of the system. However, periodic
routine inspection and maintenance of the Vertical Wall Stand/Frame
should be performed by a qualified service technician. The following
inspection and adjustment procedures are recommended to maintain the
system in its original operating condition:

Perform Every Six Months

• Visually inspect for wear and cleanliness
• Check for evidence of loose hardware or loose wires
• Check all bearings and bearing surfaces for cleanliness and corrosion
• Clean Bearing Tracks
• Conduct a general inspection for worn or damaged parts
• Check for smoothness of Receptor Cabinet motion
• Verify that all ground conductors are properly and securely installed
and free of corrosion or damage
• Check all electrical cabling and wiring for wear and fraying
• Check external covers for proper fit; inspect for scratches that may
indicate cover misalignment or damage caused by collisions with
footstools, trolleys, or other equipment
• Verify vertical electomagnetic lock holding force exceeds 35 lbs.
(Models QW-420, QW-420-S, QW-420-D) or 18 lbs. (Model QW-400).

cable from terminal block TB1 located on top of Vertical Column.
6. Disconnect ground wire from ground lug on back side of Vertical
Column.
7. If wall stand is equipped with a bucky and/or ion chamber, free
up bucky/ion chamber cable drape to allow enough slack for wall
stand to be laid down on floor. If sufficient drape cannot be
attained, disconnect bucky power and/or ion chamber cables
from wall stand.

9. Remove four (4) ¼-20 x 3/4” hex head screws securing the Verti-
cal Column Wall Mount Bracket to Vertical Column (see Figure
4-2). Retain hardware for re-assembly.
10. Remove hardware securing the Vertical Column Base to floor.

CAUTION! The Vertical Column requires two per-

sons to lift. Before lowering the column, prepare a
resting location for laying the column on; lay
down two pieces of 2” x 4” lumber about three
feet apart (cover lumber with soft cloth or cush-
ioning material to prevent damage to column or
scratching of painted surfaces).
11. Carefully, slide the Vertical Column forward until clear of Wall
Mount Bracket, then slowly lower column until horizontal on floor.
12. Remove two (2) ¼-20 x 3/4” screws securing Vertical Pulley
Assembly to Vertical Column (see Figure 4-3).
NOTE: Before disconnecting counterweight

cables, tag the cable on the left side “LEFT” and
the cable on the right side “RIGHT” (as viewed
from top). This will ensure correct position of
cables on replacement Vertical Pulley Assembly
during re-installation.

Figure 4-4. Tilting the Vertical Pulley Assembly to Access Counterweight Cables
13. Tilt the Vertical Pulley out from Vertical Column enough to gain
access to counterweight cable mounting hardware (see Figure
4-4).
14. Remove two (2) ¼-20 x 7/8” screws securing each counterweight
cable to Trolley Assembly.
15. Remove the Vertical Pulley Assembly from column.
16. Position the replacement Vertical Pulley Assembly on the Vertical
Column and tilt forward as shown in Figure 4-4.
17. Route the LEFT and RIGHT counterweight cables over the appro-
priate ends of the Vertical Pulley Assembly. (Do not cross left and
right cables!). Secure each cable to Trolley Assembly using two 1/
4-20 x 7/8” screws. Ensure screws are tightened securely.
18. Insert the Vertical Pulley Assembly fully into Vertical Column and
secure to column using two (2) ¼-20 x 3/4” screws.
CAUTION! The Vertical Column requires two per-

sons to lift.
19. Carefully lift Vertical Column to vertical position and slide into the
location on floor where it was originally installed.
20. Install four (4) ¼-20 x 3/4” hex head screws securing the Vertical
Column Wall Mount Bracket to Vertical Column (see Figure 4-2).
21. Install hardware to secure the Vertical Column Base to floor.

22. Return all previously removed trim weights to counterweight tray.

23. Re-connect wiring to terminal block TB1.
24. Return-bucky and/or ion chamber cables to original draping posi-
tions. If disconnected, re-connect the bucky and/or ion chamber
cables to wall stand.
25. Connect ground wire to ground lug on back side of Vertical Column.
26. Re-connect +24 VDC power cable to terminal block TB1.
27. Install the Column Center Cover, Top Cap and Base Cover on the
Vertical Column (see Figure 4-1).
28. Turn on power to Vertical Wall Stand. Verify proper receptor vertical
motion and locking functionality.
Cassette Tray Removal Procedure
