How to maintain and maintain ultrasonic scanners: the key to maintaining good equipment operation

1、 Introduction

Ultrasonic scanner is a device widely used in medical, industrial testing, safety inspections, and other fields. It utilizes the characteristics of ultrasound to perform non-destructive testing and recognition of target objects. In order to ensure that the ultrasonic scanner can maintain good working conditions, improve detection accuracy and equipment service life, it is particularly important to understand how to properly maintain and maintain the ultrasonic scanner. This article will provide a detailed introduction to the key points and methods of maintaining and maintaining ultrasonic scanners.

2、 Daily maintenance

Cleaning and Environmental Control

Maintaining the cleanliness of the ultrasonic scanner is crucial for its normal operation. Regularly clean the surface and internal components of the equipment from dust, dirt, and other impurities. Avoid using equipment in humid or high-temperature environments to prevent circuit shorts or component damage.

Power and cable inspection

Ensure that the power cable of the ultrasonic scanner is well connected and free from damage or looseness. Before connecting to the power supply, be sure to check whether the power supply voltage meets the equipment requirements to avoid equipment damage caused by voltage fluctuations.

Display screen and button inspection

Regularly check whether the display screen is clear and visible, and whether the functions of each button are normal. If there are any problems, repair or replace them in a timely manner.

3、 Regular maintenance

Equipment calibration

Regularly calibrate the ultrasonic scanner to ensure the accuracy of the detection results. Perform calibration operations according to the equipment manual or relevant standards.

Component replacement and maintenance

Regularly inspect and replace worn or damaged components such as probes, cables, buttons, etc. If you encounter equipment malfunctions, please contact professional personnel for repair in a timely manner.

Software updates and backups

Keep the ultrasound scanner software updated to obtain the latest features and fix known vulnerabilities. Regularly backup device data to prevent data loss.

4、 Probe maintenance

Clean the surface of the probe

Use a soft cloth or cotton swab to clean the surface of the probe, avoiding the use of rough cloth or chemicals to avoid damaging the probe. Be careful not to touch the electronic components of the probe during cleaning.

Check probe connection

Regularly check whether the probe connection wire is secure. If there is looseness or damage, please replace the connection wire in a timely manner. Avoid excessive bending or twisting of the probe connection wires during operation.

Probe replacement and adjustment

When the probe reaches its service life or malfunctions, it needs to be replaced. When replacing the probe, be sure to follow the equipment manual to ensure the correct connection and setting of the new probe. When adjusting the probe, it is necessary to set it according to the parameters provided in the equipment manual to ensure the normal operation of the probe.

5、 Common problems and troubleshooting methods

Display screen not lit: Check if the power supply is connected properly, and check if the cables are damaged or loose; If the problem remains unresolved, please contact professional maintenance personnel for inspection and repair.

Device cannot start: Check if the power switch is turned on; Check if the battery level is sufficient; If the problem remains unresolved, please contact professional maintenance personnel for inspection and repair.

Inaccurate detection results: Check if the equipment is calibrated; Check if the probe is clean or worn; If the problem remains unresolved, please contact professional maintenance personnel for inspection and repair.

6、 Conclusion

As an important testing equipment, ultrasonic scanners require us to pay attention to their maintenance and upkeep. By taking measures such as daily maintenance, regular maintenance, and probe maintenance, the equipment can be effectively maintained in good working condition, improving detection accuracy and equipment service life. When encountering problems during use, corresponding troubleshooting methods should be taken according to the actual situation. Regular equipment inspection and maintenance are the key to ensuring the normal operation of ultrasonic scanners.
