ELECTROTHERAPY
IFC-4P: IFC (Interferential) Traditional (4 Pole)
Interferential Current is a medium
frequency waveform distributed
through two channels (four electrodes)*.
The currents cross each other in the
body at the area requiring treatment.
The two currents interfere with each
other at this crossing point, resulting in
a modulation of the TheraTouch® (the
current intensity increases and decreases
at a regular frequency).
* IFC-4P requires the use of at least four
(4) electrodes at all times, as well as
criss-crossing the electrodes as indicated
below.
WAVEFORM SPECIFICATIONS
PARAMETERS
Carrier
Frequency
Carrier frequency is the
base frequency
of the alternating current.
Beat
Frequency
(High & Low)
Occurs when two
waveforms are in and out
of phases. The difference
between the two
frequencies produces the
modulated effect
(i.e. Beat H. of 4000 and
Beat L. of 4150 will
yield a 150 pps beat
frequency).
Vector-Auto
Vector-Auto is a form of
amplitude modulation
and is a percentage of
the set interferential
amplitude (intensity)
and will decrease from
its maximum level over 6
seconds.
Vector-
Manual
Vector-Manual is a form
of amplitude
modulation. When
Vector-Manual is set to
a different angle, the
output intensities of two
channels are different.
The rhythmical change
in position of the
interference pattern,
results in the modulation
of the amplitude of one
or both input currents.
