iCRco iCR7200
iCRco · Model iCR7200
The iCR7200 Dual Bay CR System defines a whole new class in the arena of multi loader CR solutions. 2 separate CR reading modules allow for simultaneous scanning of 2 plates resulting in an ultra high throughput of up to 140 14x17 plates per hour. Both modules are based on the patented iCRco design incorporating the True Flat Scan Path™, an ultra precise scan mechanism and protective cassettes to produce over 300,000 high resolution images per plate. iCRco CR Imaging Plates are fixed to a rigid back panel. Nothing ever touches the active area of the phosphor plate resulting in artifact free images throughout the lifetime of the CR Plate. Unlike most CR products, the iCR7200 Dual Bay CR Unit uses no rollers to transport the plate across the 2 scan heads. A positive traction drive system ensures perfect artifact free reproduction with every scan. The iCR7200 Dual Bay Unit has been designed to be deployed in Hospitals, Orthopedic facilities and in any other environment where ultra high throughput is needed. Enjoy the advantages of a multi loader CR system at the price of a single plate CR.
Key tips
- ·Never bypass a radiation interlock to "just get the image" - this is one of the few true zero-tolerance rules in BMET work.
- ·Trend image-quality phantom results over time - drift shows up before an outright failure does.
- ·Portable/mobile units take real physical abuse from transport - check wheel locks and cable strain reliefs more often than fixed units.
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.
Power supply fault
MediumSymptoms: Unexpected shutdown, unit won't power on.
Root cause: PSU or backup battery aging.
Network / DICOM connectivity fault
MediumSymptoms: Images fail to transfer, PACS timeout.
Root cause: Network configuration or interface card fault.
Recon / system software hang
LowSymptoms: Frozen console, acquisition timeout.
Root cause: Workstation or storage degradation.

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.
- ·Daily QC per modality: image-quality phantom test
- ·Tube and detector inspection
- ·Annual state-required radiation safety survey
- ·Vendor-scheduled preventive maintenance
Troubleshooting Approach
A structured starting point derived from the failure modes above. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Recon / system software hang
- Confirm the presentation - typically frozen console, acquisition timeout - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: workstation or storage degradation.
- Isolate the affected subsystem using the manufacturer's functional check or self-test, where one is provided.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the workstation / GPU 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.
