real
(current and voltage)
b. Checking the frequency
c. Checking the pulse width
These technical checks may only be performed by individuals with appropriate
training. The results must be noted in the medical device book along with the

Technical Data
Compound:
silicone-carbon
Durability:
approx. 12 months
Colour:
black
Manufacturer:
Pierenkemper GmbH, Germany
Application
Spread 2-3 drops of schwa-medico electrode gel evenly over the flat side of
the electrode. The electrode gel improves the conductivity of the electrode.
Place the electrodes on the relevant skin areas and secure the electrodes with
a tape strip. Do not apply to broken skin!
Because conductivity of the electrodes slowly decreases after approx. 6 months
of use, replace electrodes after approx. 12 months of intensive use.
Cleaning
Clean electrode surface with water and soap or appropriate disinfectant (e. g.
alcohol 90 %) after every use.
