QA-ES II Electrosurgical Analyzer
Introduction
The QA-ES II Electrosurgical Analyzer (hereafter called
the Analyzer) is a precision instrument for use in
performing tests on high-frequency electrosurgical units
(ESU) in accordance with national and international
standards. It is for use by trained service technicians.
Tests include:
•
Automatic power distribution measurement
•
Crest factor measurement
•
RF leak measurement
•
Return electrode monitor (REM) test
The Analyzer conducts testing by measuring the ESU
output against test loads set and adjusted in the Analyzer.
The Analyzer can automatically execute a power
distribution test with a load resistance ranging from 10
ohms to 5200 ohms. The Analyzer automatically
measures crest factor with a bandwidth of 2.5 MHz (with
loads), ensuring that the test result is reliable and
reproducible.
Test results shown in the Analyzer’s LCD display can be
printed out directly or transferred to a PC via the Ansur
QA-ES Plug-in test automation software. The Ansur
QA-ES Plug-in software allows you to design test
protocols, remotely control the Analyzer, and store test
results.
