2-2-1-3 Cooling The cooling requirement for the VIVID E9 scanner with monitor and on board peripherals, is up to 3800 BTU/h. This figure does not include cooling needed for lights, people, or other equipment in the room. Each person in the room places an additional 300 BTU/h demand on the cooling system.
This dedicated power shall originate at the last distribution panel before the system. The VIVID E9 will function on voltages from 100-240 Volts and 50 or 60 Hz. However, if using 220 volt power in North America, then a center tapped power source is required.

GE H EALTHCARE GA091568, R VIVID E9 S IRECTION EVISION ERVICE ANUAL 2-2-2-6 Power stability requirements Voltage drop-out Max 10 ms. Power transients (all applications) Less than 25% of nominal peak voltage for less than 1 millisecond for any type of transient, including line frequency, synchronous, asynchronous, or aperiodic transients.
Ultrasound machines are susceptible to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from radio frequencies, magnetic fields, and transients in the air or wiring. They also generate EMI. The VIVID E9 complies with limits as stated on the EMC label. However there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Time and manpower requirements Site preparation takes time. Begin Pre-installation checks as soon as possible, if possible, six weeks before delivery, to allow enough time to make any changes. HAVE TWO PEOPLE AVAILABLE TO DELIVER AND UNPACK THE VIVID E9. WARNING WARNING ATTEMPTS TO MOVE THE UNIT CONSIDERABLE DISTANCES OR ON AN INCLINE BY ONE PERSON COULD RESULT IN INJURY OR DAMAGE OR BOTH.
All electrical work on these products must comply with the requirements of applicable electrical codes. The purchaser of GE equipment must only utilize qualified personnel to perform electrical servicing on the equipment.
This dedicated power shall originate at the last distribution panel before the system. The VIVID E9 will function on voltages from 100-240 Volts and 50 or 60 Hz. However, if using 220 volt power in North America, then a center tapped power source is required.

VIVID E9 overview 5-3-1 Purpose of this section The purpose of this section is to give you an overview of VIVID E9 and how it function. 5-3-2 Introduction The VIVID E9 ultrasound unit is a high performance digital ultrasound imaging system with total data management.
5-3-3 VIVID E9 general description VIVID E9 is a digital beamforming system. Signal flow travels from the Probe Connector Panel to the Front End Electronics, then to the Back End Processor, and finally, the results are displayed on the monitor.
GE H EALTHCARE GA091568, R VIVID E9 S IRECTION EVISION ERVICE ANUAL 5-3-5 Signal flow overview The GTX board(s) in the Front End Processor, generates the strong bursts transmitted by the probes as ultrasound, into the body. The Transmit bursts are routed from the GTX board via the XD bus to the Relay board where the ultrasound probes are connected.
At power up, all necessary software is loaded from the hard disk drive. 5-3-7 The electronics VIVID E9 internal electronics are divided into two card cages: • Front End Processor (FEP) The FEP is sometimes called “Front End Card Cage”, “Front End”, or only “Card Cage”.
VIVID E9`s high performance Octave Imaging provides superb detail resolution and penetration, outstanding contrast resolution, excellent acoustic clutter rejection and an easy to operate user interface for switching into Octave Imaging mode.

10-1-1 Periodic maintenance inspections It has been determined by engineering that your VIVID E9 system does not have any high wear components that fail with use, therefore no Periodic Maintenance inspections are mandatory. However, some Customers’ Quality Assurance Programs may require additional tasks and or inspections at a different frequency than listed in this manual.
In order to gain accreditation from organizations such as the American College of Radiology (USA), it is the customer’s responsibility to have a quality assurance program in place for each VIVID E9. The program must be directed by a medical physicists, the supervising radiologist/physician or appropriate designee.
The service procedures and recommended intervals shown in the Care and Maintenance Task Schedule assumes that you use your VIVID E9 for an average patient load (10-12 per day) and not use it as a primary mobile unit which is transported between diagnostic facilities.

GE H EALTHCARE GA091568, R VIVID E9 S IRECTION EVISION ERVICE ANUAL 10-6-8-2 Generic procedure on probe leakage current The most common method of measuring probe leakage is to partly immerse the probe into a saline bath while the probe is connected to the ultrasound system and active. This method measures the actual leakage current resulting from the transducer RF drive.

ISO TEST switch is depressed. 6.) Power ON the VIVID E9 unit. 7.) After the VIVID E9 unit has completed the boot process, select the probe to be tested so it is the active probe.
10-7-2 Probe Fails Test the probe in another connector to isolate if the fault lies with the probe or the VIVID E9. NOTE: Each probe will have some amount of leakage, dependent on its design. Small variations in probe leakage currents are normal from probe to probe.
