and within this section/chapter. This information applies to all service activities related to
the system and all delivered system components.The safety information provided in this
document (and those listed above) must be adhered to.
The installation, service and maintenance of equipment described herein is to be per-
formed by qualified personnel who are employed by Siemens or one of its affiliates, or
who are otherwise authorized by Siemens or one of its affiliates to provide such services.
Assemblers and other persons who are not employed by or otherwise directly affiliated
with or authorized by Siemens or one of its affiliates are directed to contact one of the
local offices of Siemens or one of its affiliates before attempting installation or service pro-
cedures.
High voltage
• Hazardous voltage levels may be present (565 V DC) at the following parts even if the
system is switched off:
- DCC - Power D450
- Slip rings
- Carbon brushes
- Generator electronics
NOTICE
NOTE Enable gantry rotation after finishing the work.
- Connect the stationary and rotating parts of the gantry with a protective conductor pri-
or to working in the gantry.
NOTICE
NOTE Remove the cable prior to rotating the gantry.
Automatic procedures
Radiation protection
• Observe the following protective measures when working on the CT unit with radiation
"ON":
- use a radiation shield
- maintain a safe distance from the source, the farther the better
- use the minimum dose, smallest slice-thickness
- remove the phantom ( if possible ).
Bloodborne pathogens
• Remove the decorative ring on the cover. The ring is held in place only with magnets.
• Remove the cover segments. The corners of the segments are held on the gantry frame
with magnets.
NOTICE
NOTE To facilitate reattaching the individual cover segments, mark
them on the inside with a permanent pen when removing them.
The orientation of the cover segments in this document is always
as viewed from the front of the gantry; the same applies to the
back cover segments.
• Before removing the front funnel, open light marker connections LM4 X310 and/or LM5
X311. (Both connectors are identical.)
On the back funnel the loudspeaker X388 and microphone 1 X389 connections must
be opened. Then remove the screws using a 5 mm Allen key and the nuts with a 10 mm
key.
• Carefully remove the funnel and then the Plexiglas strip.

• For easier installation, balance the funnel on the front side (1/Fig. 1 / p. 13) or rear side
(1/Fig. 2 / p. 13) retaining brackets, place it over the threaded pins and attach it with the
nuts.
• Align the front and rear funnels so that the inner sides correspond exactly and they are
not misaligned.
• When installing the individual cover segments, make sure that the metal clips in the
segments catch securely on the magnets on the gantry frame. The magnets for the dec-
orative cover ring are countersunk in the front segments. The lower segments have
pointed corners whereas the upper segments are rounded.
• Design ring and plexiglas strip.
NOTICE
NOTE When reinstalling the ring, make sure that the metal plates are
centered exactly above the magnets. To do this, the center notch
of the ring (1/Fig. 3 / p. 14) must be in the 12 o’clock position over
the gap between the two upper cover segments
NOTICE
NOTE Install the Plexiglas strip (Fig. 5 / p. 14)with the angled side
(Fig. 4 / p. 14) toward the front . The ends of the strip should be at
10-11 o’clock

NOTICE
NOTE Due to modified mechanics, from PHS serial-no. 1222 onwards,
the tabletop may manually be moved by means of allen key.
• In order to move the tabletop mechanically, release the horizontal brake on the MAS
(MAster Stationary).
• Move the tabletop by means of allen key.
NOTICE
NOTE Although the drive mechanics has changed with PHS serial-no
1222, there is only one type of horizontal drive used for all models
(and consequently one sparepart).

• Remove the table front side cover plate and the metal cover sheet underneath.
• Remove the table rear side cover plate and the metal cover sheet underneath.
• To access the motor and the belt, disengage the tabletop from the magnetic coupling
and move it to the back about 20 cm out of the guide rails. Be careful not to lose the ball
bearings from the guide rails. Only the grease holds them in place.
NOTICE
NOTE Do not move the tabletop completely out of the guide rails. Due
to the weight, 2 persons are required to remove it completely.
NOTICE
NOTE Do not loosen any other screws on front bottom cover1. Other-
wise, the mechanical adjustment of the horizontal spindle will be
corrupted. This adjustment cannot be done in the field. The table
has to be sent back to the factory.

If necessary, adjust the tension by shifting the motor.
• Connect plug X9 and the wires at X10 and secure the cables with cable ties.
• Carefully move the tabletop back into the guide rails and engage it in the magnetic cou-
pling. Be careful not to lose the ball bearings from the guide rails. Only the grease holds

• Measure the distance between the lower edge of the tabletop and the upper edge of the
upper table section(Fig. 88 / p. 118).
The distance must be 11 mm + 3 mm. If the distance is too small, remove the upper
table section and place one of the supplied rubber rails on either side of the mounting
skid. Then reposition the upper table section again, attach it with the 4 screws and
measure the distance again.
• Secure the 18 screws with Loctite 221 and tighten them with a torque of 6 Nm.
• Wait one hour and tighten the 18 screws again with a torque of 6 Nm.
• Fill the joint at the rear tabletop cover plate with silicone (part. no. 20 49 716).
• Push the table into the back end position.
• Remove the table front side cover plate and the metal cover sheet underneath.
• Check the two support wheels on the front side. Make sure that the support wheels
have slight contact over the complete moving range. After loosening the set screw with
a 2.5 mm Allen key, adjust the support roller with an 8mm crescent wrench at the ex-
centric screw.
