Reason

Range for the same energy could be different depending if the layer is the first layer of the irradiation plan or not.

Action

IBA sent an Urgent Field Safety Notice dated October 19, 2017 , issued to customers stating the following: IBA recommends performing a check to detect the consequence of this potential power supply regulation issue on a regular basis (IBA recommends Monthly), see Annex 1 for details. IBA is developing a corrective action in order to reduce the hysteresis effect and detect magnet current overshoot. This solution will be deployed to all systems using JEMA analog power supply. This solution will be validated and deployed by April 2018. For further questions, please call (215) 972-7985
