Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Weak or no shockwave / poor stone fragmentation
HighSymptoms: Low energy at the focal point, stones not breaking, long treatment times.
Root cause: Electromagnetic shock-head coil / membrane at end of life, degraded coupling (water cushion air or leak), or a HV generator fault.
Localisation / imaging fault
HighSymptoms: Cannot target the stone, fluoroscopy or ultrasound localisation off, focal point misaligned.
Root cause: C-arm / X-ray source or image intensifier, or the integrated ultrasound localiser, or focal-point calibration drift.
Water / coupling-cushion system fault
MediumSymptoms: Air in the cushion, leaks, poor patient coupling, degassing not working.
Root cause: Degassing unit, cushion membrane, or the fill/drain circuit.
Therapy table / positioning drive fault
MediumSymptoms: Table X/Y/Z or tilt will not move, positioning error.
Root cause: Positioning drive motor or control fault.
HV generator / trigger fault
HighSymptoms: No or erratic pulses, HV or charge alarm.
Root cause: HV supply, capacitor, or trigger circuit.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Weak or no fragmentation
- Check the shock-head pulse count against its rated life.
- Fully degas and fill the coupling cushion, removing all air, and confirm good patient contact.
- Verify the HV generator charges and triggers.
- Confirm the focal point aligns with the localisation crosshair on a test target.
- Escalate a confirmed shock-head or HV fault to the manufacturer; recalibrate the focal point after any shock-head work.
Symptom: Cannot localise the stone
- Check the imaging chain (fluoroscopy output / detector, or the ultrasound localiser).
- Verify the focal-point calibration against the imaging crosshair.
- Check the therapy-table positioning drives move to command.
- Recalibrate the isocentre / focal point per the service manual.
- Coordinate with the urologist before further clinical use.
