WARNING
Remove sensor from service if damage to the cable or
housing is observed, otherwise exposure to elevated
surface temperature or improper functionality may result.
2.6.3 X-ray Generator Settings
The radiation of X-ray tubes is controlled by the settings of:
• Exposure time (msec) or pulses
• Voltage (kV or kVp)
• Current (mA)
Some controls allow for the modification of all of the above, some have
fixed settings for current and voltage.
Follow the instructions of the X-ray generator to set the desired dose range.
2.6.4 Distance of X-ray Source to Sensor
There is a correlation between the distance of the cone to the sensor and
the dose received by the DEXIS Titanium sensor. The radiation that reaches
the sensor decreases with the square of the distance. If you double this
distance, you receive only ¼ of the radiation.

Proper Care of the DEXIS Titanium Sensor
Prior to taking X-rays, each staff member should be fully trained and have
a complete understanding of how to care for the sensor. Not adhering to
the following rules to protect the sensor may potentially result in malfunc-
tion or permanent damage.
• Store the sensor in the sensor garage when not in use.
• Do not allow the patient to bite down on the sensor or cable.
