The definition for the former class reads:

An Information Bearing Artifact that is designed to carry an Information Content Entity that represents some entity owing to a visual isomorphism between the carrying artifact and the entity.

However, the definition for the latter--

A Material Artifact that is designed to produce images (visual representations) of an entity.

--appears to contain a different definition of the term ‘image’, according to which an image is simply a visual representation.

Presumably this sort of conflict ought to be avoided. Perhaps in this case this can be done by modifying the Imaging Instrument definition as follows:

A Material Artifact that is designed to produce Images of an entity.
