Introduction
The ULT800 TEE Transducer Leakage Current Tester measures the
leakage current of ultrasound transducers independent of their ultrasound
systems. Use the hand-held, battery-operated instrument during the routine
transducer cleaning procedure conducted between patients.
Connect the transducer to be tested to the ULT800 via a unique adapter.
The ULT800 performs the measurement with the transducer immersed in
either the cleaning solution or saline. To insure that the leakage current
test is accurate, first test the conductivity of the fluid. A special dual
element probe also connected to the ULT800 tests the conductivity of the
fluid. A green
PASS
light or a red
FAIL
light indicates the results of the
conductivity and leakage current tests.
In addition to verifying that the ultrasound transducers are safe for patient
use, the ULT800 makes it possible to reduce expensive repairs. Identifying
transducers that exceed safe leakage currents early may allow for repairs
to be made before a transducer becomes non-repairable.
