GE XT Suspension
Remanufactured Overhead, Moveable Suspension System

remanufactured GE XT SuspensionHuestis Medical's remanufactured GE XT Suspension systems are completely dismantled, structurally inspected and thoroughly remanufactured to provide accurate radiographic positioning.

Each unit is fitted with select Huestis Medical or GE upgrades including new bearings, tracks, counterweight and electrical cables, counterpoise spring drum and gooseneck assembly where applicable. After a detailed three-step paint process each system is completely pre-staged for compatibility to GE tables and other auxiliary equipment, and calibrated to OEM specifications.


Features

Precision Alignment

  • High precision, octagonal, proportionally telescoping columns.
  • Self-aligning bearings provide accurate, vibration-free positioning throughout the 59” (150 cm) vertical travel.
  • Offset tube mount allows maximum source-to-image distance.
  • Full longitudinal and transverse radiographic coverage.
  • Calibrated at Huestis Medical facility prior to shipping.

Stable Positioning

  • Adaptable to either ceiling, wall or floor-supported installation to minimize room design.
  • Counterpoise spring and cam design maintains constant vertical moving effort with 6 — 8 Lbs. (2.7 — 3.6 kg) breakaway force.
  • Wide 25-3/4” (65 cm) movable inboard bridge design for maximum stability.
  • Large diameter guide bearings allow effortless longitudinal and transverse positioning with 3 — 4 Lbs. (1.4 — 1.8 kg) moving effort inboard.
  • Field adjustable counterpoise system and swing down hinged carriage expedite on-site servicing, minimize downtime and allow mounting flush to the ceiling.
  • Indexed rotation of tube collimator about both vertical and horizontal axes.

Smooth Movement

  • Manually controlled movements with an electric detent at transverse table center and selectable detents for use with ancillary radiographic equipment provide rapid and precise alignment.
  • Special inertia sensing safety systems minimize the potential for patient injury by restricting column drop in the event of counterpoise or cable malfunction.
  • Patient safety is further addressed with electromagnetic vertical and angulation locks which hold in the event of power failure.

Installation Flexibility

  • Inboard or outboard configurations provide installation flexibility for varying room requirements.
  • Outboard configuration available to directly replace earlier GE systems, significantly reducing construction cost.
  • Optional longitudinal and lateral cable concealments complement the naturally aesthetic design.

Application

  • Huestis Medical's remanufactured GE XT Suspension system is ideal for operational support of radiographic tubes, collimators, image intensifiers and TV monitors.
