switching power supply adapter with Input being 100-240 VAC,
1.0-2.0 Amp, 50/60 Hz and Output being 24 VDC, 3.0 Amp.
• Insert the 2.5 mm metal plug from the Power Adapter into the
back of the scaler.
• Insert the supplied AC cord female plug into the Power Adapter.
• Plug the male AC power cord into any grounded electrical outlet.
Use of 30KHz
Detachable Handpiece
The TurboSensor® + is provided with a 30KHz detachable handpiece.
The handpieces do not come sterilized and must be autoclaved
prior to initial use.
To attach the cable to the handpiece, align the small groove in the plug
with the mating groove in the jack and push the connector gently until
it “clicks”. Removal is accomplished by rotating the hose collar and
gently withdrawing the connector from the handpiece.
Turning on the Scaler and
Controlling the Power Output
The unit provides a rocker switch on the rear panel for Main Power
Control. UP position of the switch turns the device ON. Green LED
on the front panel would illuminate indicating powered ON status
of the device. DOWN position of the switch on the rear panel would
turn the device and Green LED indicator OFF.
Scaling will be activated upon pressing the foot switch once the
device is turned ON. The pedal should be placed where it will not
accidentally be pressed when the device is not in use.
The Turb gives you two ways to adjust the scaling power,
by using the Power Control Knob for normal operation, or by
depressing the Foot Pedal to enter the “Turbo Mode”.
POWER
Use the Power Control Knob to set the initial
scaling power. Rotate the knob in a
clockwise direction to increase the power,
or counterclockwise to decrease the power.
When starting a procedure, use the Power
Control Knob to set the power to “Medium”.
When the foot pedal is slightly depressed to
the fi rst position, the insert will begin
vibrating at medium power. Then adjust the power up or down based
the specifi c needs for the case being treated
Use the “Turbo Mode” for short-term increases in power during
scaling. Using increased foot pressure, fully depress the foot pedal
to the fl oor to enter “Turbo” mode. A yellow indicator light will
illuminate on the front panel to confi rm the scaler is operating at
“Turbo” power. Scaling power to a point midway between the
current setting and the scaler’s maximum power.
Engaging the Turbo feature at a low power setting causes a
signifi cant boost in power.
Engaging the Turbo feature at high power will produce very
little change.
Since water fl ow is not aff ected by “Turbo Mode”, extended
procedures may require a water adjustment.
Partially lifting your foot off the pedal will return the scaler to
normal, “non- Turbo” mode. Releasing your foot completely off the
pedal will deactivate scaling. Green LED indicator will NOT turn
OFF, as it indicates device ON status.
Purging
Per CDC recommendations, waterlines should be purged based on
the following schedules:
• Two minutes at the start and end of each day.
• 20 seconds between patients.
The Turb off ers the following
exclusive Purge features:
• Purging ONLY with the handpiece detached from the cable to
prevent contamination of an autoclaved handpiece.
• Convenience of a foot controlled “Tap-On” Purge.
How to Purge
1.
Confi rm the unit is ON and that the green LED on the front
panel is illuminated.
2.
Disconnect the detachable-autoclavable handpiece from
the cable.
3.
Adjust the water control to Maximum fl ow.
4.
Hold the cable end over a sink or drain.
5.
Depress the foot pedal for more than 2 seconds to activate
purge mode.
a.
When initial pressure is applied to the foot pedal, a short
burst of water will be expelled from the cable to confi rm
purge mode is being activated.
b.
After two seconds, a steady stream of water will fl ow, and
the Purge LED will begin to pulse.
c.
Once water fl ow is continuous, and the Purge indicator
LED pulses, foot pedal pressure can be released without
interruption of the purge cycle.
6.
The Purge light will pulse for the fi rst 20 seconds of the purge
cycle after which it will stay constantly on for an additional 1
minute 40 seconds. (2 minutes of total purge time).
7.
When the Purge light changes from pulse to constant the 20
second purge cycle for between patient waterline purging is
complete. Depress the foot pedal to stop purging.
8.
The beginning and end of day purge cycle will automatically
shut off after 2 minutes.
Safety Feature:
Deactivation of the purge cycle can be manually
accomplished at any time by tapping the foot pedal.
