|
bleeding in highly vascular tissue over |
|
broader tissue surface areas. |
|
|
Return Electrode Monitoring |
The unit incorporates a return |
System |
electrode contact quality monitoring |
|
system (RECQMS). This system |
|
determines the type of patient return |
|
electrode attached (single-plate or |
|
split-plate). |
|
It also continuously monitors the |
|
contact impedance between the |
|
patient and the split-plate patient |
|
return electode. |
|
Contact impedance is only monitored |
|
when approved split-plate patient |
|
return electrodes are used. |
|
|
Memory |
The generator automatically powers |
|
up to the last modes selected, and |
|
previously set power settings. |

Safety Precautions when Testing the Generator
Before testing this generator it is important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions supplied with it. Also, be familiar with any other equipment used to install and test the generator.
General Warnings, Cautions, and Notices
Warning
Use the generator only if the self-test has been completed as described.
Otherwise, inaccurate power outputs may result.
The instrument receptacles on this generator are designed to accept only one instrument at a time. Do not attempt to connect more than one instrument at a time into a given receptacle. Doing so will cause simultaneous activation of the instruments.
II SurgiStat The
Generator Electrosurgical
SurgiStat II Service Manual |
1-3 |
Caution
Do not stack equipment on top of the generator or place the generator on top of electrical equipment. These configurations are unstable and/or do not allow adequate cooling.
Provide as much distance as possible between the electrosurgical generator and other electronic equipment (such as monitors). An activated electrosurgical generator may cause electrical interference with them.
Do not turn the activation tone down to an inaudible level. The activation tone alerts the surgical team when an accessory is active.
Notice
If required by local codes, connect the generator to the hospital equalization (grounding) connector with an equipotential cable.
Connect the power cord to a wall receptacle having the correct voltage. Otherwise, product damage may result.
Active Accessories
Warning
Electric Shock Hazard Do not connect wet accessories to the generator.
Electric Shock Hazard Ensure that all accessories and adapters are correctly connected and that no metal is exposed.
Caution
Accessories must be connected to the proper receptacle type. In particular, bipolar accessories must be connected to the bipolar instrument receptacle only. Improper connection may result in inadvertent generator activation or a contact quality monitor alarm.
Set power levels to the lowest setting before testing an accessory.
Notice
During bipolar electrosurgery, do not activate the generator until the forceps have made contact with the patient. Product damage may occur.

Fire/Explosion Hazards
Warning
Explosion Hazard Do not install the generator in the presence of flammable anesthetics, gases, liquids, or objects.
Fire Hazard Do not place active accessories near or in contact with flammable materials (such as gauze or surgical drapes). Electrosurgical accessories that are activated or hot from use can cause a fire. Use a holster to hold electrosurgical accessories safely away from personnel and flammable materials.
Fire Hazard Do not use extension cords.
Fire Hazard For continued protection against fire hazard, replace fuses only with fuses of the same type and rating as the original fuse.
Generator Electric Shock Hazards
Warning
Do not remove any covers or panels exposing the internal components. Refer to a Valleylab representative for service.
Connect the generator power cord to a properly grounded receptacle. Do not use power plug adapters.
Do not connect a wet power cord to the generator or to the wall receptacle.
Always turn off and unplug the generator before cleaning.
Do not touch any exposed wiring or conductive surfaces while the generator is disassembled and energized. Never wear a grounding strap when working on an energized generator.
When taking troubleshooting measurements use appropriate precautions, such as using isolated tools and equipment, using the “one hand rule,” etc.
Potentially lethal AC and DC voltages are present in the AC line circuitry, high voltage DC circuitry, and associated mounting and heat sink hardware described in this manual. These potentials are not isolated from the AC line. Take appropriate precautions when testing and troubleshooting this area of the generator.
High frequency, high voltage signals that can cause severe burns are present in the RF output stage and in the associated mounting and heat sink hardware. Take appropriate precautions when testing and troubleshooting this area of the generator.
