Temperature
monitoring /
regulation handpiece
The generation of the mechanical pulse energy causes a substantial build-up of heat
in the handpiece. To avoid reducing the life of the handpiece, a temperature switch is
integrated. An internal shutdown mechanism forces the handpiece to cool if
excessive temperatures are reached.
In addition to temperature monitoring, the Z
Wave
Pro
provides temperature control by
means of a temperature sensor in the handpiece. A ventilator in the handpiece is
started when activated by the foot switch; it stops automatically if it reaches a certain
temperature.
If the temperature reaches a critical level, a cooling phase is initiated. This is
indicated by the following display message:
“Over temperature in handpiece. Please allow the handpiece to cool down.”
Output of pulse is no longer possible.
After confirming the message with the button with the green arrow, the handpiece
cannot be selected any longer and the time is indicated until the handpiece will reach
normal operating temperature again.
Meanwhile the application can be continued with the second handpiece.
Application head
A large applicator with Ø 39 mm is available for the application.
Change of applicator
To change the applicator, hold the handpiece with one hand, and unscrew the
applicator head counter clockwise from the handpiece with the other hand.
Then screw in the new applicator clockwise to the stop position.
Note
The applicator is a wear part and needs to be replaced after a certain period of use
(see chapter 11 Maintenance).
Footswitch
Place the corresponding foot switch in such a way that it can be reached easily during
the application. The control panel of the switch is independent of direction; an exact
alignment of the foot switch is therefore unnecessary.
To avoid damage, ensure that only slight pressure is exerted on the switch. The
operation is performed with the front foot – not the heel.
The switch has no locking system i.e. the activation remains as long as pressure is
applied on the switch.
