Output Test:
1.
Turn the unit to “ON.”
2.
Select the 3.0 MHz frequency and set DUTY FACTOR to CONTINUOUS.
3.
Submerge the transducer head in a water bath and turn OUTPUT POWER to maximum.
For a 5 second period remove and submerge the transducer head continuously from the water bath.
After 5 seconds hold the transducer head out of the water pointed away from you.
You should see what appears to be a fine water spray (mist) emanating from the head. This would indicate
normal operation.
If you do not see what appears to be a fine water spray (mist) coming off the head, there is no ultrasound
output, and may require service. If this is the finding, contact the ACP Customer Support. All ultrasound
repairs should be done by ACP Service Center personnel.
4.
After this test immediately turn OUTPUT POWER to the off position.
Calibration
If clinicians are to give prescribed therapeutic doses of ultrasound with reasonable accuracy, the machine used is
required to meet the equipment performance standard (21 CFR 1050.10) instituted by the Food and Drug
Administration. Periodic calibration of treatment parameters having a direct influence on the physiological effect of
ultrasound on tissue, i.e., ultrasound power output, and time accuracy, is a major part of this regulation. It is
suggested, therefore, that the Omnisound
®
be verified at least once yearly. The Omnisound
®
calibration must also
be verified after it has been serviced or repaired. Routine recalibration may be performed through the screen
calibration system available by pushing the calibration key of the main run screen. An Ohmic UPMDT-10 or 30
may be used to perform recalibration. Please follow the directions on the calibration screens to perform this
procedure. It is recommended that recalibration be performed by qualified service personnel.
Due to the sophisticated nature of the Omnisound
®
, ACP requires that all service work be performed at its service
facility or by a qualified ACP field technician or authorized service center.
