Job Card PRE A001 - Checking for Damage

The Senographe DS system is inspected for proper operation and appearance before shipment. How-
ever, it is necessary to inspect the product after the shipment is received.
The Senographe DS system is supplied in three different pallets as follows.
Pallets for overseas shipment are protected by a wood and cardboard cover with shock and tilt indica-
tors. Pallets for road shipment do not have this cover.
1 POSSIBLE TYPES OF DAMAGE
Two types of possible damage can exist, as follows:
• External (noted) damage:damage is visible on the packages and there may or may not be actual
damage to the contents of the packages. This type of damage is a consequence of bad transporta-
tion.
• Internal (concealed) damage: no damage is visible on the packages however there is actual damage
to the contents of the packages. This type of damage is a consequence of bad manufacturing.
The illustration on the below summarizes the general process to determine:
• whether any of the Senographe components are damaged
• the cause (and liability) of possible damage
• whether you have to make a claim for damage with the carrier company
• whether you have to make a manufacturing claim for damage or components considered dead on
arrival (DOA) with GE Healthcare
