CONTROL DEVICES FOR X-RAY, MRI, and CT
For the application field X-ray/MRI/CT multi-function foot
controls developed especially by steute are mainly applied. In
most cases complex positioning movements must be carried out,
therefore standard foot controls can only rarely be applied.
Observed standards are, for example, IEC 60601-1, that
refers to the general regulations for safety aspects, as well as the
appropriate product standards, e.g. IEC 60601-2-43, considering
the specific specialities of X-ray equipment.
The main features of foot controls for this application field: A
defined minimum requirement for mechanical stability; defined
requirements for the protection class; partly redundant design of
switching elements; an integrated interface on request; use of
multi-function elements.
