Pressure Equipment Directive 0

NOTE Local national laws, codes, regulations and procedures have to bemaintained.

The magnet qualifies as pressure equipment. When starting up and while operating pres-sure equipment, national regulations have to be observed. In Europe, the Pressure Equip-ment Directive (97/23/EU) regulates the market introduction of pressure equipment. In Germany, the Pressure Equipment Directive as well as the "Betriebsicherheitsverord-nung" (BetrSichV)(Industrial Safety Regulations) apply to both system start-up and opera-tion. The BetrSichV stipulates that prior to start-up, the user or others must perform a final acceptance test consisting of the inspection of the documentation, safety equipment, and installation. Periodic inspections of the cryostat are not required. However, periodic inter-nal tests and periodic strength tests are mandatory, if the equipment is taken out of oper-ation for maintenance or repair work.

Declaration of Conformity The Declaration of Conformity is delivered together with the magnet documenta-

tion.The CSE, ISE or factory installation member performing the initial installation of the sys-tem has to add the Declaration of Conformity to the System Owner Manual, Register 6, Certificates.The Declaration of Conformity is important for the customer in several countries for acceptance inspections by e.g. the government or any technical inspection authority.

Pressure Device Regulations 0The magnet is a pressure device. Fuer die Inbetriebnahme und den Betrieb von Druck-geraeten sind die nationalen Vorschriften zu beachten.In Europa regelt die Druckgera-etrichtlinie (97/23/EG) [Pressure Equipment Directive] die Inverkehrbringung des Druckgeraetes.In Deutschland gilt die Druckgeraeteverordnung sowie die fr die Inbetrie-bnahme und den Betrieb der Anlage relevante Betriebssicherheitsverordnung (Betr-SichV).

Whole-body gradient systemIn addition to the basic magnetic field, the whole-body gradient system generates linear dynamic magnetic field gradients in the three room orientations. The whole- body gradient system includes the gradient amplifier and the gradient coil.

Astex RFPAThe Astex RFPA is linear and fully automatic. The Astex RFPA is capable of delivering 35kW at 123.272MHz. Typical gain at 35kW output will be 77.5dB.(Function / p. 89)

RF systemThe RF system generates the RF fields and transmits them to the patient (transmit func-tion). It also receives the MR signals emitted by the patient and provides them in digital format for image reconstruction (receive system).

RF coilsThe system includes a whole-body coil for emitting RF to the patient and for receiving MR signals from the patient. The tune box which adjusts the resonator to the performance amplifier as a function of frequency and load as well as the connection cables to these units are part of the body coil. The support tube of the body coil also functions as the inner cover of the magnet tunnel. RF local coils improve image quality when examining specific body regions.RF coil dimensions can be found under the following chapter: (Surface coils / p. 259)MAGNETOM M6-030.891.01.01.02 Siemens AG05.05 CS SD 23


General 23Patient handlingPrior to the MR examination the patient is positioned on the table using the positioning accessories for additional comfort. During the examination, the patient is monitored accordingly, e.g. via video camera. The system handling function covers all requirements and includes the patient table, lighting, ventilation, and patient monitoring. Since the patient is usually alone in the examination room during the measurements, patient and physician communicate via the intercom. The intercom includes the configura-tions necessary in the examination room and the operating console as well as the cabling.Whenever required, the patient is monitored during the examination via a video camera. The setup consists of the camera, the monitor, as well as the cabling.Siemens AG M6-030.891.01.01.02 MAGNETOM05.05 CS SD 23

3- 2Room planningGeneral 0

Information for using optical stimulation equipment 0One of the major applications of the MAGNETOM Trio, A Tim Systrem is fMRI (functional imaging). Due to the design, the easiest way to position the optical stimulation equipment may be from the back. This fact has to be considered during planning if the customer will be using fMRI. Additional space is required for the stimulation equipment in the back (ser-vice end) of the magnet (e.g. beamer, panel etc.).

Due to this fact we recommend a 1.5m to 2.0m distance between the magnet and the back RF wall.

Consult the user's manufacturer's manual for the stimulation equipment regarding details involving installation aspects as well as space and distance required to the magnet (fringe field).MAGNETOM M6-030.891.01.01.02 Siemens AG05.05 CS SD 23


Room planning 25Planning 0

NOTE All system-related requirements have to meet Siemens MedicalSolutions specifications identified in this document!The specifications are part of this Planning Guide.

When planning the MR-suite, the following influence the suitability of the site: Interference generated by the magnet Interference affecting the magnet Load capacity Noise emission Minimum door height Minimum room height Cable routing On-site preparation Installation qualitySiemens AG M6-030.891.01.01.02 MAGNETOM05.05 CS SD 23


26 Room planningMagnetic field effects on peripheral devices 0The fringe field may affect the functions of devices operated in the vicinity of the magnet. To prevent interference, the magnetic flux density at the location of these devices may not exceed certain values. The flux density acceptable for these devices depends on a num-ber of different parameters. All pertinent information is available through the manufac-turer.

NOTE The fringe field of the MR system may make its location critical asspecified in the planning documentation. Additional room shield-ing can be calculated and recommended by the ES PM PS planningdepartment in Erlangen.

Room planning 27Magnet siting requirements 0 The final location selected for the magnet has to ensure that the stability and

homogeneity of the magnetic field are not adversely affected by extraneous fields. In addition, the magnetic fringe field should not impair the safety of per-sonnel or the functions of other devices in the vicinity of the magnet.

NOTE At present, a site survey measurement for Trio, A Tim System hasto be performed.Contact the ES PM PS department in Erlangen (Mr. MichaelSchmitz) to arrange this measurement.

Minimum distances between Siemens Medical Solutions magnets 0

NOTE It is not possible to install electronics components side-by-side(GPA/ACC/SEP/Astex RFPA) of MR systems with the same operat-ing frequency! Refer to: (Co-Siting / p. 44)The GPA/ACC cabinets and the Astex RFPA have to be separatedby >/= 5 m. The magnetic field of one system has to be ramped to the upperfrequency limit, the other magnetic field to the lower frequencylimit!Shimming is only optimized with both magnets ramped up duringthe shimming procedure.

The following minimum distances between magnets are valid if: Both magnets are at field. Neither magnet is ramping, while the other is running applications. If one magnet is switched off, the other magnet has to be re-shimmed. Contact the ES PM PS department if you have non-Siemens products or older system

types, or if you have to plan, e.g., two systems with the same operating frequency close to each other.

Room planning 29Interferences 0Effects on the magnetic field are divided into: static interferences caused by, e.g., ferromagnetic objects, especially those located

underneath the magnet dynamic interferences caused by, e.g., moving ferromagnetic objects or low frequen-

cy magnetic fields In critical cases, either Siemens or a third party authorized by Siemens Medical

Solutions checks the suitability of the site. The tests are designed to detect elec-tromagnetic and mechanical sources of interference.

Siemens is not responsible for inspecting structural prerequisites, for example, the load capacity of floors or the heating and air conditioning system of the site. Similarly, Siemens is not responsible for executing or monitoring preliminary on-site installation steps. For these reasons, Siemens will not be held liable for the customers failure to maintain specific operating conditions.

NOTE Static effects can be compensated for by shimming.Dynamic effects are compensated for by maintaining the maxi-mum values indicated.

NOTE A ferromagnetic iron shielding is required, e.g., if minimum dis-tances to static / moving iron masses or AC/DC sources cannot bemaintained.

The building must not exceed the following vibrational specifications in the three spatial orientations:

Tab. 1 Building vibration specifications

The requirement for amax is -83 dB (g) is measured as a maximum rms value per frequency component > 0.5Hz in the Fourier Transformation of the recorded signal (spectrum).

Additional information 0 The reference value is the acceleration of gravity (g=9.81m/s2). -83 dB correspond to a factor of 1/14125 amax = 1 mm/s2

NOTE According to our experience, the mass of the floor plate should beabout 600 kg/m2 (corresponding to a thickness of about min. 20cmor 8") to achieve good vibration and structure-borne sound isola-tion

NOTE The fringe field of the MR system may make its location critical asspecified in the planning documentation. Additional room shield-ing can be calculated and recommended by the ES PM PS planningdepartment in Erlangen.Refer also to: (Iron room shielding / p. 32)

NOTE The MAGNETOM Trio, A Tim System is equipped with Sylomer/Sy-lodamp pad kit for reducing structurally-borne noise.In addition, the covers are equipped with passive noise cancella-tion for reducing airborne noise.

The physical characteristics of the MR system generate a certain amount of noise, emit-ted as contact or acoustic noise. The table below provides you with the information to install the noise attenuation as required, e.g., by law. The attenuation usually incurs additional structural expenditures. The noise level for the various systems averaged across different sequences is shown in the table below.

44 Room planningCo-Siting 0

General 0 Co-siting describes the prerequisites for planning/installing two MR systems

side-by-side at the same time and with the same operating frequency (field strength). One other scenario could be: A customer already has a 1.5T system in operation and is getting a second 1.5T system to be located in close vicinity of the first one. In this case, the new sys-tem has to meet all requirements specified in this section. The already installed system should be modified whenever possible.

NOTE It is not possible to install electronic components (GPA/ACC/SEP)side-by-side for systems with the same operating frequency. Addi-tional prerequisites are mandatory!The ACC cabinets have to be separated by 5.0 m (center to center).The magnetic field of one system has to be ramped, according tothe ramping procedure, to the upper frequency limit , the othermagnet to the lower frequency limit!Shimming is only optimized with both magnets ramped up duringthe shimming procedure.

Room planning 45If two systems with the same operating frequency have to be planned (or one is already installed), take the following into account: The attenuation of the RF room must be 100 dB at the required operating frequency. For additional/optional wave guides, the following calculation applies:Lmin = 4 x diLmin = wave guide length; di = inner tube diameter (di = < 300mm) The two RF rooms cannot be connected electrically. The openings of the RF rooms (e.g., door, window, wave guide) have to be turned

away from each other. Avoid having the openings (e.g., door, window, wave guide) facing each other.

The ACC cabinet must be installed at a min. distance of 5.0 m from each other. The cable ducts (ACC side) of the two systems have to be installed separated by 5 m. The short cable set (1.5 m) is not permitted for use with systems in Co-siting, even if

the ACC cabinet is installed directly underneath the RF filter plate. There must be separate on-site power distribution panels for each system . They

have to be installed as far away as possible from each other. The RF filter plates have to be positioned as far away as possible from each other

The mininum distance is 5.0 m. The connection of the RF filters (gradient and power) has to be performed as requested

in the installation manual (e.g., torque). According to the ramp procedure, one of the MR systems has to be ramped to the up-

per frequency limit which is 123.265 MHz (3.0T) , the other MR system has to be ramped to approx. 100 kHz lower than the first one.

NOTE If two 3 T systems are installed side by side:One of the MR system has to be ramped up to the upper frequencylimit of e.g. 123.265 MHz,the other MR system has to be ramped to app. 100kHz less than thefirst one.

NOTE Shimming is only optimized with both magnets ramped up duringthe shimming procedure.

Field decay 0 The magnet marked "magnet 2" in the example has to be re-ramped first,

because the normal magnetic field decay causes the lower operating frequency tolerance limit to be reached earlier.Siemens AG M6-030.891.01.01.02 MAGNETOM05.05 CS SD 23


46 Room planningNOTE The special ramping procedure could require a different re-ramp-ing time interval (to the operating frequency after the normal fielddecay) of the two systems!

Fig. 16: Co-Siting frequency settings

NOTE If two 3 T systems are installed side by side:One of the MR system has to be ramped up to the upper frequencylimit of e.g. 123.265 MHz,the other MR system has to be ramped to app. 100kHz less than thefirst one.
