Sprite User's Manual
Interlock System
The interlock system is a safety mechanism that protects the operator from active X-rays.
The lock is in place in accordance with 21CFR1020.40.
The interlock system automatically locks the door when X-rays are turned on. You will not
be able to open the door until the X-rays are turned off, at which point the interlock system
unlocks the door.
Key Switch
The key must be inserted and rotated for X-rays to be enabled. The key switch is located
on the front panel of the electronics box.
Procedures
Sprite requires minimal X-ray safety procedures, as all X-rays are contained within the lead-
shielded metal cabinet.
All X-ray activation is controlled by an interlock system. The X-rays will not turn on unless the top
door is shut; likewise, the top door cannot be opened while the X-rays are on. Please remember
that the X-rays are on during automatic or manual conditioning.
Protection
The use of external safety protection (e.g., lead aprons) is not necessary with Sprite; however,
regulations concerning the wearing of radiation dosimeters by individuals exposed to radiation on
a regular basis vary from state to state.
Liquids
Any liquid around Sprite represents a potential electrical shock hazard. You should not spray,
pour or otherwise allow any fluids in Sprite's vicinity. If you intend to scan liquids, they must be
non-flammable and in a sealed container. For specific cleaning instructions, see Cleaning.
