Digit Systems deinstalled a Siemens MAGNETOM Avanto 1.5T MRI at a large hospital in Norwich, Connecticut. The project required controlled magnet preparation, system disassembly, protection of critical components, and close coordination with the facility and rigging teams.
Controlled Ramp-Down and Deinstallation
Digit Systems engineers completed a controlled magnet ramp-down using the MPS2 magnet power supply before disconnecting and disassembling the system. The magnet, cryogenic assemblies, electronics, cabling, and other components were protected for removal and transport.
Advance Site Assessment and Equipment Preparation
Before deinstallation, Digit Systems reviewed the removal route and identified elevation changes and steps that would affect equipment movement. Our team prepared the necessary tools and access equipment in advance, including a ramp solution for the planned route.
On site, our engineers coordinated with hospital staff and the rigging team to manage equipment preparation and movement. This advance planning, supported by the team’s ability to adapt to changing site conditions, helped keep the work aligned with the hospital and rigging schedule. The system was prepared and ready for rigging by 11:00 a.m. the following day.
Prepared for the Site. Ready to Respond.
The protected equipment was loaded for delivery to Digit Systems, where our team received and secured the system. This project reflects our approach to MRI deinstallation: assess the site, prepare the right equipment, and bring experienced people who can respond effectively as the work progresses.
