2 Maintenance program
This periodic maintenance for Orthopantomograph OP100D should include:

1 Check the steel wires, which carry the weight of the vertical carriage and
counterweight. If there is any sign of wearing, the steel wires must be
replaced.
2 Check that the unit is well fixed to the wall and floor
3 Check that the carriage motor clutch adjustment is correct.
4 Check kVp / mA / exposure times according to each procedure.
5 Grounding: Check that GND in Filament Control Board is connected to
the power line ground. Check that the top of the tube head assembly is
grounded (yellow-green wire on the top of the tubehead assembly).
Resistance must be less than 0.2 ohm.
6 Clean the rotation friction surface from debris.
7 Run the “Sr 80 ro-”, “Sr 81 LI-” and “Sr82CE-”(if you have OC 100
D)movement test programs in the Service mode to verify that each
movement is OK.
8 Make a normal exposure @ 57kV and 2mA, with a needle test phantom
to verify that the image layer is in the correct position, and that there are
no vertical stripes in the image.

If there are stripes, use Service programs (Sr 83 ro=, and Sr 84 LI=) to
find the problem.
9 Check that there are no oil leaks in the Tube Head Assembly.
10 Verify the collimator microswitch operation in both direction: QA - PAN
- CEPH. Program selections in the control panel should change
accordingly. Check also that the switch in the cephalostat head changes
the LAT and PA mode.
11 OP/OC100 Beam collimation test: Check that the panoramic x-ray beam
is aligned and that it is in the middle of the secondary slot and display
test screen.
12 OC100 Cephalometric beam collimation test: Check that the x-ray beam
is aligned and that the x-ray beam stays within the fluorecent tool
markings. Check the patient collimator alignment.Verify that earposts
are aligned.
13 Check the drive belt in the Cephalostat
14 Check several examples of the customers radiographs to verify the
correct operation of the unit.
15 Check the operation of the control panel and patient positioning
panel(s), and check that the vertical carriage moves smoothly, and stop
at the limit switches.
16 Check the positioning light adjustments. In Cephalostat also the laser
positioning light.
17 Make the Quality Assurance test and record the AEC and Gain settings
from “Pr 68 INS, FrE AEC” and the density settings from “Pr 52 CCO”.
18 Record the cumulative exposure counter value from “Pr 61 CLC”.
19 Reset the “PSE” counter in the program Pr 59 PSE.
