Patient end
You have to consider the additional weights of the RF cabin and the possible iron shielding for the static
calculation.
It is only possible to position the magnet on Stop-Chocs if it is installed in a non-magnetic RF cabin and if there is
no iron shielding below the magnet.
Standard configuration is an installation on Sylomer/Sylodamp.
Building vibrations
External vibrations or shocks affecting the magnet may degrade image quality. In the three spatial orientations
the building vibration must not exeed the following specification:
Building vibration specification:
a max = -80 dB(g) in the frequency range from 0 to 100 Hz
The requirement for a max is depending on the frequency.

Air-conditioning
Environment
In the MR-area must be ensure following conditions (system during operation)
Examination room Room temperature : 18 to 22 °C
Relative humidity : 40 to 60 %
Absolute humidity : < 11 g / kg
Air intake system : ~ 30% - 50% fresh air
Off-take installation height : > 2000 mm
Air pressure: 700-1060 mbar
Technique room Room temperature : 15 to 30 °C
Relative humidity : 40 to 80 %
Absolute humidity : < 11 g / kg
Air pressure: 700-1060 mbar
The operating values should be set within these limits and ventilation must conform to local standards and
regulations.
Air filtering In the equipment area: filter classification EU 4 (DIN 24185 / part 2) to filter
out dust particles > 10 µm. For the MR examination room observe the local
regulations.
Typical heat dissipation of the Examination room ≤ 1 kW
MR-components to the Control room ≤ 0.15 kW
environment during an operation. Technique room ≤ 1.5 kW
An Air-conditioning system is required to meet the specified conditions. A separate air conditioning system
for the equipment room is not necessary if an air exchange, e.g. natural air convection, is guaranteed.

Passive cooling 42 kVA
Line voltage 400 V ± 10 %
Power consumption
Line to line unbalanced max. 2 % for time up to < 3 s 47 kVA
The size of the terminals in the EPC are designed for 70 mm². Only copper cables are allowed.
Room lighting
Ambient lighting in rooms with diagnostics or with workstations must comply with the respective local and national
regulations.
General requirements like the needed intensity of illumination - adjustable, reproducible, flicker-free or a limitation of
dazzlings and reflections etc. have to be observed (EN 12464-1, DIN 5035-7).
Fringe Field
Requirement for magn. field level warning signs in the control zone ≥ 0.5 mT
Limit for persons with cardiac pacemaker or insulin pump.
If the magnetic flux density in a given area exceeds 0.5 mT, it is necessary to display warning signs and restrict
access in accordance with local regulations.
Siting Requirements
Siting requirements for the magnet
The siting of the magnet must be such that during operation neither external influences affect the homogenity of the
magnetic field nor the safety of persons and/or the functioning of sensitive equipment can be affected by the stray
magnetic field.
#1 The DC disturbances must not exceed a peak-peak value of 1250 nT (axial) and 2500 nT (radial). Occasionally
these values might be exceeded although the minimum distances to DC sources are kept as stated in the
planning guide. Please contact the planning department of the SIEMENS Healthcare GmbH if the distances to
trains, tramways or subways are smaller than 100 m.
#2 This minimum distance is required for shimming.
Distance for magnetic shielding has to be adjusted according to individual shielding requirements.
distance X 4 m 5 m 4 m 4 m 9 m
from magnet
iso-center Z 8 m 9 m 6 m 6 m 14 m
No magnet is ramping during the other runs applications! Shim is only optimized with both magnets ramped up
during the shimming procedure.
Site inspection
In critical cases the site must be inspected on customer's expense by SIEMENS or one of SIEMENS appointed
representatives to ensure basic suitability on the site.
This inspection is exclusively concerned with the measurement of the magnetic and radio frequency interference
and building vibrations.
This inspection of other construction requirements, in particular the static and air conditioning and also the
performance and supervision of on-site installation preparations and the later compliance with the basic operating
requirements is not our responsibility.
RF-Shielding
RF-shielding
An RF-shielding (faraday cage) is required for the MR-examination room. This shielding protects the environment
from RF interference and conversely protects the MR system from external interference.
Required attenuation: >90 dB over the frequency range 15 to 128 MHz (>100 dB at Co-Siting).
These values must be certified by measuring before the MR system is installed.
RF-shielding components (doors, windows, interfaces) and complete modular RF-cabins can be supplied on
request by SIEMENS.
RF-Door
All RF-doors leading into the examination room have to be equipped with a door switch for indicating the
closed / open position of the RF-door! It must be possible to lock the RF-doors from the outside. In
addition to that it must always be possible to open the RF-door without key or additional devices in any
cases from the inside!
The RF-door is an important component for a good image quality and also for safety aspects. The customer/user of
the MR system has to be informed to maintain the maintenance intervals given by the RF-room enclosure
manufacturer. This will guarantee a correct function of the RF-door.
Flooring
An antistatic floor covering is necessary. The floor in the vicinity of the magnet and patient table (2.6 x 4.8 m) must
be levelled to within max. ± 2 mm .
The loading capacity of the flooring must be designed with the weight of the respective system components in mind.

Cryogens
Liquid helium (He) and also helium gas are required for operation of the superconducting magnet. The transport of
these liquid gases to the examination room requires the use of special vessels. The size and weight of the vessels
should be checked with the local cryogen supplier.
If the magnet can not be filled from the left service side, a long helium transfer line has to be ordered for the refilling
process!
General Information
Network Integration
The Siemens components are using TCP/IP Protocol, a 100/1000 Mbit/s switched Ethernet network and
static IP addresses.
The required network cabling (min. CAT 5 TP) has to be provided on site.
Media converters, which are needed for using fibre optic cabling, are not in the scope of Siemens delivery.
To prepare the implementation of the new system into the existing network environment, the availability
of the needed network data at least two weeks before starting the installation is mandatory.
This is the only way to ensure a seamless integration of the new system into the workflow of the department.
Safety distances
Distances from moving parts of the medical device to walls, furniture and other equipment have to be kept to avoid
injuries by crushing in compliance with local regulations, e.g. a minimum distance of 50 cm according to EN 349.
It is the customer's responsibility to ensure the above requirements are followed.
This is to avoid the risk of injury.
If safety distances are not maintained appropriate on-site safety measures have to be put in place.
Clear visible markings according to national guidelines, e.g. crushing warning signs, hazard warning
tape, hazard area cordon, safety mats, may be required.
