SYSTEM COMPONENTS
CONTROL UNIT
The EBI Bone Healing System
®
Stimulator control unit operates on nickel metal hydride,
rechargeable batteries which allow for ambulatory use. The control unit contains the operating
electronics programmed for the FLX
®
Flexible Treatment Coil. It includes an audible and visible
self checking alarm mechanism to alert the patient if the unit is not functioning properly.
The control unit is designed to store the patient’s daily usage information. Patients are
encouraged to bring the control unit and treatment coil to each follow-up visit to allow the
prescribing physician to review their treatment regimen.
NOTE:
The control unit may be worn comfortably on a belt or the waist using the Belt Pouch
when the patient is ambulatory.
BATTERY CHARGER CRADLE
The battery charger cradle is powered by the battery charger/power unit adaptor and is
designed to recharge the control unit batteries. Its design also allows the control unit to be
used in a treat and charge situation (i.e., while sleeping, sitting) (See TREATING AND
CHARGING STEP 3 pg. 11).
BATTERY CHARGER/POWER UNIT
The battery charger/power unit is powered by normal house current and is designed to provide
power to the charger cradle. Power unit must be unplugged from wall outlet to be disconnected.
LINK CABLE
The link cable connects the control unit to its FLX
®
Flexible Treatment Coil. The link cable
supplied is a 33” (83.8cm) cable. Link cables are also available in 12” and 48” lengths. For
either a 12” (30.5cm) or 48” (121.9cm) cable, phone the Biomet Patient Support Department
at 1-973-299-9300. Outside the United States contact your local EBI/Biomet Distributor.
FLX
®
FLEXIBLE TREATMENT COIL
The FLX
®
Flexible Treatment Coil is an encased wire coil that may be incorporated into a cast,
over a cast or brace, or when a cast is not utilized, may be applied directly to the skin. A spe-
cific electrical current is delivered to the coil by the control unit. The coil then delivers the ther-
apeutic electromagnetic signal to the nonunion fracture site.
GROUNDING PLUG
This product is equipped with a grounding plug with the exception of the Model 2001E. The
battery charger/power unit should be plugged into a wall outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use an extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Do not use damaged
cords.
