Berchtold OPERON B 810 Surgical
Berchtold · Model OPERON B 810 Surgical
• X-ray Cassette Channel: eliminates x-ray tops while maximizing patient safety and user convenience. • Carbon Fiber Tabletop Construction: less x-ray attenuation improving image clarity while minimizing exposure to patients and OR staff. • 12" Longitudinal Slide: Moves the tabletop longitudinally providing superior C-arm coverage without the need to physically reposition the patient. • Imaging Window: A generous 21" wide tabletop and the OPERON B 810 frame design allows for maximum imaging capabilities.
Key tips
- ·Never defeat or bypass a return-electrode monitoring (REM) alarm to finish a case - it's a direct burn risk.
- ·Verify OR table battery backup - a table that loses power mid-procedure is a real, documented incident type.
- ·Track surgical light lamp-hours rather than waiting for failure - a sudden failure mid-case is avoidable.
Typical Failure Modes
Failure patterns typical of this equipment class - general BMET reference, not verified against this exact unit's own service history unless flagged. Severity is a category-level estimate.
Height / tilt actuator fault
HighSymptoms: Table won't move to commanded position, or moves erratically.
Root cause: Hydraulic pump or electric actuator wear/failure.
Control pendant / remote fault
MediumSymptoms: Unresponsive or intermittent hand/foot control.
Root cause: Pendant cable, contacts, or wireless receiver wear.
Section articulation / lock fault
MediumSymptoms: Back, leg, or Trendelenburg section won't lock or articulate.
Root cause: Articulation mechanism or locking pin wear.
Caster / base wear
LowSymptoms: Wobble, drift, or difficulty repositioning the table.
Root cause: Caster or locking-wheel mechanism wear.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Pre-case functional check
- ·Electrosurgical return-electrode cable inspection
- ·Table hydraulic / mechanical inspection
- ·Annual electrical safety test and full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A structured starting point derived from the failure modes above. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Height / tilt actuator fault
- Confirm the presentation - typically table won't move to commanded position, or moves erratically.
- Check the most likely cause first: hydraulic pump or electric actuator wear/failure.
- Inspect the affected subsystem against the manufacturer's inspection checklist.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the hydraulic pump / electric actuator per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
Symptom: Control pendant / remote fault
- Confirm the presentation - typically unresponsive or intermittent hand/foot control.
- Check the most likely cause first: pendant cable, contacts, or wireless receiver wear.
- Inspect the affected subsystem against the manufacturer's inspection checklist.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the control pendant / remote assembly per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
