NOTE
Ultrasound Output Connector
The ultrasound output connector
used with all standard generators is
a high voltage (5000V) coaxial style
SHV-BNC connector. This connector
provides superior shielding of electri-
cal noise, compared to other types
of connectors. The ultrasound output
connector mates with fully shielded
coaxial ultrasound cables that are
secured with a simple and reliable
quarter-turn bayonet style attachment
mechanism.
The ultrasonic output from this con-
nector (that drives the attached
ultrasonic load) is a very high AC volt-
age (1200VAC). At high power levels
this can exceed 2 amps of current and
must be securely terminated via the
ultrasound cable for safe operation.
Use original equipment ultrasound
cables for safe and reliable system
operation. Improperly assembled
ultrasound cables can result in high
voltage arcing and will destroy the
ultrasound connectors.
