parkell D680 Instruction Manual

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Parkell Integra™ is a magnetostrictive, auto­tuning, ultrasonic tooth scaler that operates at either
25 KHz or 30 KHz. It has an integrated, two-bottle,
pump-driven fluid supply, and is also capable of
obtaining fluid from an external water supply.
The Integra automatically detects whether the
handpiece contains a 25 KHz or 30 KHz insert, and
switches to the correct operating frequency. The
Integra has an expanded low-power range to improve
patient comfort, and a power-boosting, user-controlled
TURBO feature to increase scaling power when needed
for heavy deposits.

INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS

For removal of calculus, plaque and oral debris from
teeth during dental prophylaxis/scaling.

CONTRAINDICATIONS TO USE

Because of the potential for electromagnetic
interference, this device should not be used on
patients or by clinicians with cardiac pacemakers,
internal defibrillators, intracorporeal fluid pumps or
any other implantable electronic devices, or in close
proximity to sensitive patient monitoring devices such
as pulse oximeters.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARD­ING USE OF NON-PARKELL INSERTS:

Parkell ultrasonic scalers are compatible with most
major brands of ultrasonic inserts. For optimal
performance of your scaler and insert, we recommend
using Parkell ultrasonic inserts. Parkell cannot
guarantee that all non-Parkell inserts available on the
market today or in the future will work properly with
our scalers. For more information, contact Parkell.

WARNINGS

• The water supply to the scaler should always be
turned off whenever the device is being connected,
disconnected, or when not in use.

• Do not run this device dry. Water must always flow
through tip during use to cool handpiece and insert.

• The power supply line cord functions as the AC
power disconnect device for the scaler.

• The transformer should be located above and away
from any sources of water. As with all electrical
devices, the unit should not be immersed in water
or other liquids. Do not reach for the device if it has
fallen into liquid until power is disconnected, and
do not use the device after it has fallen into liquid.
Return the device to Parkell for servicing.

• Modification of this device will void the warranty, and
may violate safety codes, endangering the patient
and/or the clinician.

• This equipment is not suitable for use in the
presence of a flammable anesthetic gas mixture
(when used along with air or oxygen).

• This equipment produces electromagnetic energy
and may cause interference with other nearby
electronic devices. Should this occur, changing the
position or location of the device
may be necessary.

CLINICAL PRECAUTIONS

• Protect patient’s eyes, lips, cheeks, tongue or other
vulnerable tissues from contact with the vibrating
scaler tip.

• Protect the patient’s clothing from water damage
when using this device.

• Clinicians should wear eye protection and facemask
when using this device.

• Keep the long axis of the insert tip parallel to the long
axis of the tooth while maintaining gentle contact with
the root to “wipe” deposits from the tooth. Prolonged
perpendicular contact between the insert tip and the
tooth will damage the tooth by gouging it.

INDIVIDUALIZATION OF TREATMENT

condition which might be affected by this device during
treatment, consult a physician prior to use.

INSERTS

Magnetostrictive inserts for the Integra scaler are
available separately, and are not included with the basic
scaler unit. However, they may be included in a scaler
package that you have chosen to purchase. Parkell
scalers are compatible with most major brands of 25
KHz or 30 KHz magnetostrictive ultrasonic inserts.
For optimal performance of your scaler and insert, we
recommend using Parkell ultrasonic inserts. Parkell
cannot guarantee that all non-Parkell inserts available
on the market today or in the future will work properly
with our scalers. For more information, contact Parkell.

The scaler automatically adjusts the operating
frequency to match that of the insert in the handpiece
without operator intervention. Brand new inserts may
initially fit tightly in the handpiece, and may be inserted
and removed more easily by using a slight twisting
motion, or by lubricating the insert “O” ring with water.
Old, worn or blunt inserts will scale poorly and generate
excess heat, and should be replaced when necessary.

INSTALLING THE SCALER

Locate the device where the control panel will be easy
to reach during scaling procedures, and where the
water filter at the rear of the unit may be periodically
changed without difficulty. The scaler requires
access to a grounded electrical outlet and an optional
connection to a source of drinking-quality water from
the building water supply. Alternatively, the unit may
receive fluid exclusively from the internal bottle supply

WATER CONNECTION

If the clinician chooses to operate the Integra on city
water, before plugging in the device, they should
connect the scaler’s water line through the included
filter disk to a drinking-quality water supply (15-35 psi
optimal), free of sediment, at room temperature. An
external, office-wide water filter is recommended to
minimize frequent changes of the device’s in-line water
filter. The male quick-connect that comes on the end
of the water hose is the standard fitting presently used
in the dental industry. If you are replacing a scaler that
uses an Adec-type or other type of connection, remove
the old fitting from the unit hose and attach it to the
new water line. Check for leaks at all hose and filter
connections before use, and tighten if necessary.

USING THE INTERNAL FLUID
SUPPLY BOTTLES

The Parkell Integra is equipped with two internal
bottles which can supply the fluid that flows through
the handpiece for cooling and lavage during use. The
bottles may be filled with drinking-quality water, or
diluted with anti-microbials at a ratio of 4 parts water
to 1 part chlorhexidine or mouthwash. If fluids other
than water are used in the bottles, the system should
be flushed with plain water after each use.

To fill the bottles:

1. Open the Integra cover. You will see two bottles, with
the bottle-lock holding them in place.

2. Using finger and thumb, gently squeeze the two
retaining lugs of the bottle-lock and remove it
from the unit.

3. Remove the bottles from the unit. Unscrew and
remove the caps from them.

4. Fill the bottles up to the fill line marked on the side.

5. Replace the caps on the bottles, making sure they
are screwed on all the way.

6. Replace the bottles in the rear of the Integra, making
sure they are standing upright in the base of the unit.

7. Replace the bottle-lock over the bottles. Look for
the word “Top” on the bottle-lock to make sure it
is in correctly. As before, using finger and thumb,
squeeze the two retaining lugs and
gently press the bottle-lock down.
Release the lugs. They should
locate into the side of the clear
cover and hold the bottles firmly
in place.

8. Completely close the Integra lid. If not
fully closed, the unit will not be able to draw fluid
from the bottles.

9. Monitor the fluid level in the bottles regularly during
use and refill as required. A constant fluid flow is
necessary for correct operation of the Integra
during scaling.

(DO NOT DISCARD)

Apply lubricant
to both ‘O’ rings.

The lid must be closed completely for the unit to function
correctly with the internal fluid system. If the lid does not
close completely or it sticks, then the t wo black ‘O’ rings
on the underside of the cover may be dry and require a little
lubrication. Apply a very thin layer of Vaseline to each ‘O’
ring with a Q-Tip. Just a thin layer is all that is necessary.
