THE ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL

The ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL is the most technically advanced electrosurgical system, specifically designed for use in the operating room for general, microsurgical and same-day surgical procedures. The bipolar generator incorporated in the ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL operates totally independent of the monopolar generator and in addition, features handswitching capability or conventional footswitch activation.

FEATURES OF THE ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL:

• SMART-O-MATIC, automatic compensation circuit which provides the desired output for all electrodes or tissue conditions. The automatic range control, which is divided into ten steps, requires no readjustment within the set range. The SMART-O-MATIC operates in both the unipolar and bipolar modes.
• In the MACRO mode, the unit performs as a conventional electrosurgical unit for cutting and coagulation in open and endoscopic surgery, with disposable or reusable accessories.
• In the MICRO mode, the generator delivers microsurgical currents, providing output adjustability, impedance and voltage not possible to achieve with a conventional electrosurgical system.
• Three generators, all individually adjustable:

GENERATOR I: Non-modulated current for smooth cutting and contact coagulation and cutting with blended currents. Blend I mode provides cutting with limited hemostasis, but more pronounced than in the "Pure" mode. Blend II mode delivers a dampened waveform current for more dramatic hemostasis, while still allowing the respective electrode to cut with significant penetration.

GENERATOR II: Delivers modulated, high voltage current for spray coagulation and fulguration. The output voltage exceeds twice the level of most solid state electrosurgical generators, particularly when used in such procedures as transurethral resection of the prostrate (TUR). This new solid state design permits massive, fast coagulation for urological, cardiovascular and thoracic procedures.

GENERATOR III: A totally independent bipolar generator, which may be utilized at the same time as the monopolar generators, if desired. ELMED continues to lead the way in bipolar generator technology, offering a handswitching mode, or operation by conventional footswitch. The bipolar generator features its own MICRO/MACRO output selector, which extends the versatility of the ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL. It can even be used as a moist field coagulator in ophthalmic surgery.

• True digital readout for output power, which accurately indicates the power which will be delivered, calibrated to a 500 Ohm impedance load. Even changes in output power when selecting the blended modes for Generator I are registered on this advanced digital indicator.
• Return electrode monitor. Automatic sensing device deactivates the unipolar generator if the patient plate circuit is defective. When only the bipolar generator is used, the patient plate does not have to be utilized.

ELMED also offers the ESU 300 M/M which incorporates the same features as the ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL but without the digital wattage display.

ELMED manufactures the most comprehensive line of reusable active electrodes, handles and RF-connection cables, bipolar accessories and insulated unipolar instruments. Specialized accessories for microsurgical procedures and endoscopy are also available. We invite your inquiries. The ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL and ESU 300 M/M is the result of over 30 years experience in the design and manufacture of electrosurgical instrumentation. ELMED produces the finest quality equipment, free of expensive and misleading gimmickery.

ADVANCED SAFETY FEATURES: Both, the ELMED ESU 300 M/M DIGITAL and ESU 300 M/M, are specifically designed to eliminate potential hazards due to improper connection of the active electrode accessories by making the monopolar and bipolar connections totally incompatible. On competitive electrosurgical units the 4 mm banana plug connections are common between the monopolar and bipolar outputs and thus, it is possible to connect a bipolar forceps to the monopolar output, which could lead to an extremely dangerous situation. Yet, many manufacturers of electrosurgical equipment, who claim optimal safety features, ignore or overlook this.
