Revision 1
41
The gas supply at the electrode handle is part of a Luer-lock
connection and to be connected to the socket (1, Fig. 7-1) on the
front of the maxium® smart Beam. In order to flush out any air
present in the applicator, by pressing the
PURGE
key (2, Fig. 7-1) an
argon gas flow can be initiated without activating the
electrosurgery unit.
The components of the gas supply and the gas flow control inside the unit up to the outlet are non-sterile.
For more protection against microbial contamination, there is the possibility of inserting a sterile single use
filter (REF 80-181-90-04) with a pore width of 0.2 µm between the gas outlet of the unit and the sterilizable
applicator, which will hold back potential germs (with the exception of viruses).
