NOTE:
Use of a sensor positioning device is recommended to guarantee that
the sensor is positioned at right angles to the radiation beam and
parallel to the tooth. Positioning devices are supplied with the KaVo
IXS system.
Portability
KaVo IXS can be easily moved from one dental chair to another. Once disconnected
from the USB port of the computer, the sensor may be positioned near a second
dental chair and connected to a USB port present nearby.
The USB technology allows easy connection and disconnection of KaVo IXS even
if the computer is switched on, unless the PC presents particular limitations. No
activation or deactivation procedure is necessary with KaVo IXS, just plug in and
out.
Hygiene

After each patient, the sheath must be removed and the sensor must
be cleaned and disinfected by CaViWipes; h olders should be
disinfected in an autoclave or with a cleaning agent after each patient.
Store disposable sanitary sheaths in a clean, dry place not exposed to sunlight or
UV rays.

biologically hazardous.
Important:

is a risk of contamination.
