DESCRIPTION
The Definitive Biomedical Resource for Affinity Mammography Maintenance
The Lorad Affinity Series Service Manual (Rev 008) is the factory-issued technical blueprint for installing, calibrating, and repairing Hologic’s industry-standard mammography units. Unlike basic operator manuals, this document is written for certified X-ray engineers, offering deep access to the High Voltage Generator logic, C-Arm rotation mechanics, and safety interlock circuits.
Whether you are diagnosing a “Tube Overload” error, replacing a collimator lamp, or performing the annual Physicist QC Inspection, this manual provides the step-by-step protocols required to meet strict FDA and MQSA standards.
Critical Calibration & Repair Categories:
X-Ray Generation & Tube Service:
Tube Replacement: Safe removal and installation of the M-IV Molybdenum/Rhodium X-ray tube.
Filament Calibration: Adjusting the filament current (mA) for Large and Small focal spots.
kVp Accuracy: Verification and adjustment of the High Voltage inverter output (20-35 kV).
Mechanical & Motion Systems:
C-Arm Rotation: Servicing the rotation motor, brake assembly, and angle potentiometer.
Compression System: Calibrating the compression force (typical target: 25-45 lbs) and thickness measurement sensors.
Collimation: Alignment of the light field to the X-ray field (Beam Limiting Device).
Automatic Exposure Control (AEC):
Sensor Calibration: Tuning the solid-state detector for consistent optical density (OD).
AEC Modes: Troubleshooting Auto-Time, Auto-kV, and Auto-Filter logic.
Electrical & Logic:
Schematics: Detailed block diagrams of the Host Microprocessor, Motor Controller, and Filament Driver boards.
Interlocks: Diagnosing room door interlocks and “System Not Ready” states.
Error Codes: Interpreting system status messages and hex codes from the console.
Detailed Table of Contents Overview:
1. General Information: System specifications, environmental requirements, and safety symbols.
2. Installation: Uncrating, leveling the gantry, and cabling the console.
3. Calibration:
kVp and mA Station setup.
Compression Force and Thickness.
