2. Commissioning

2.1 Installation

The unit is intended for use only in a medical environment and connection to the mains must be in
accordance with the IEC 364-710 regulations. Further, connection to the mains should be via a suitably
protected socket using the mains lead and plug provided by the manufacturer or one of an equivalent
quality. For safety reasons, extension leads or multi-socket connections should not be used. The mains
socket must be protected by a fuse rated at not less than 10 Amperes.

The ELEKTROTOMB can be placed on any flat surface with a tilt angle not in excess of 10”. The
surface itself should be equivalent in size to that of the unit. Care must be taken not to block the air vents
on the underside of the generator and ensure a free flow of air around the unit. The ELEKTROTOMB
should be protected from the danger of fluids entering the unit.

For intracardiac surgery this equipment must be connected to the main power stabilizer in the operating
room or location where it is installed by means of the (yellow/green) power-stabilization cable supplied.

2.2 Important notes for safe usage

Misuse of the generator and a disregard of these instruction can lead to serious injury!

Take care to study these instructions supplied with your ELEKTROTOMB

Warning!
The unit is not intendedfor me in explosion endangeredareas

Caution must be exercised when anaesthetic gas mixtures such as Oxygen (02) and nitrous Oxide (~20)
are used during surgery in the thoracic or head regions. The use of anaesthetic gas, exhaust management
systems is to be recommended. Inflammable substances used for cleaning or disinfection or, particularly,
solvents used to remove adhesives, must be removed or fully evaporated before the using an
electrosurgical unit. The danger of pocketing or pooling of inflammable liquids or vapours in body
cavities such as the navel or vagina as well as in the depths of surgical wounds which must also be
considered and not underestimated. Liquids must not be allowed to gather or pool under the patient. The
presence of endogenic gases which may be ignited, must also be taken into account when using
electrosurgical equipment on the gut and a system of inert gas flushing is recommended. Material such as
cotton wool or gauze can, in certain circumstances, also be ignited via HF current induced sparking -
particularly in the presence of oxygen.

The use of electrosurgery requires caution and the following rules should be considered
:LEKTROTOM@ 640 http://www.berchtold.delET53O~e.ht~
. The high frequency current output of the unit should be minimal and not more than is required for the
task to be performed.

Note:
A reducedor lack: offunction after setting the unit ou(but controls at ‘normal’power can be causedby a number offactors
such as neutral electrodeproblems, bad connections,damaged cables or a crusted active electrode.Thesespoint should be
consideredbefore selectingwhat rnz@!~be a much bzjber unit ouput than necessav.
* Do not attempt to test the unit by directly discharging against a metal object or the negative electrode.
*The function of other electromedical equipment can be interfered with by the use of high frequency
current.
*The switching mechanisms of an electrode handle which is not completely water tight, may be
penetrated by blood, saline or other rinsing liquids or amniotic fluid producing an unpredictable
response from the generator.
* In order to prevent accidental HF current burns, the electrode handle should be placed on the
instrument trolley when not in use and not on the patient.
* Placing a finger switched, electrode handle onto very damp drapes or, into pooled liquid on the drapes,
may cause patient burns directly below the electrode handle.

2.3 First usage

Before the unit is first used surgically, the Manufacturer or their official agent shall:

a) have fully tested the unit in the position in which it is to be used;

b) have given full operational instructions for the unit to a responsible person.

2.4 Visual and functional checks before each use

Before each use the user must be sure that the unit and its accessories are in good working order.

The following visual checks should be made:

e check for external damage to the unit, insulation and plugs

0 check that the appropriate accessories a present and that they fit
* Very carefully check the insulation on endoscopic instruments

Damaged or doubtful equipment must not be used.

Warning!

7. Power Circuit ELEKTOTOMB 530

8. Technical Description ELEKTROTOMB 530

8.1 Power supply

The power supply module contains:

* A pulse pause controlled power converter which produces from 0 to 180 volts with a current limited to
4 Ampere.
* The low voltage power supply produces a stabilized constant voltage of 10 volts and unstabilized
constant voltages of 5 volts and 15 volts. With these voltages, digital and analogous areas, digital display
and relays are supplied.

The galvanic separation of the power supply module from the network is realized through the
application of the mains transformer.

8.2 RF-activation and application

By means of the hand-/foot switch, the processor recognizes the order to apply RF-current and
processes the application conditions set on the control segments before. Then the control logic forms a
pattern pulse sequence for the RF-generator, which transforms the energy of the power supply module
to an RF-current of 500 kHz and supplies the outlet through the corresponding relays.

During the application of RF-current, the function of the patient plate is controlled by the control logic.
The application level is supervised by means of digital and analogous converters.
5LEKTROTOMO 640 http:Nwww.berchtold.deiETS30-e.htn

8.3 Main power supply

The mains supply circuit realizes four important functions:

* Switching the unit ON/OFF by means of relay I<l. Relay I<1 is supplied by Tl, UZl and the contacts
of K2.
* Energy exchange results through the pulse controlled transistor VTl. The components DDl, DA3
with their corresponding electronic components serve as pulse pause generator and steer on the
transistor VT1 by an optic separation.
* The circuit set up with the components UZ2, UZ3, DAl, DA2 forms the auxiliary voltages
5 volts, 10 volts and 15 volts.
* The component DA4 supervises the current flowing to the generator, limits it and produces a
logarithmic signal, which is used for automatic coagulation.

8.3.1 Main power supply

8.4 Board for control elements

The power control device is composed of three equal circuits.

Each is designed for a different current kind and functions as follows:
The position code with the change of setting of the rotary switch is refilled. The components 40174
(DD4, DD5, DD13, DD14, DD15) serve as intermediate buffer and deliver signals activating the
corresponding diode through the driver components 2804 (DD16, DD17, DD18, DD7).
Simultaneously an analogous signal of 0 to 10 volts for power supply control is produced with the
resistance matrix.

With the bistable relay and corresponding auxiliary controls the current kind is selected and stored up to
the next operation..

8.5 Display board

ZLEKTFCOTOMB 640 http:/lwww.berchtold.de/ET530-e.htn

The display board is composed of diodes

with serial resistors, lamps and sensors.
All these parts are joined with the board
for control elements through plugs and
are activated or probed by the PC board
directly.

8.6 RF-generator

The oscillation circuit consisting of the digital elements Dl.A, D1.B and a quarz oscillator produces a
nominal frequency of 4 MHz. The component DD2 divides the nominal frequency by 8 and forms a
two-phase signal to-gether with the elements DD3.A, DD3.B.

The dig&l switch DDl .C, DDl .D makes it possible to switch on/off RF-current or to form a modulated
RF-current. The driver components DD4, DD5 take the RF-signal off the digital switch and secure the
switch-over process of the amplifier. The RF-detector is set up with the element DD3.C according to a
conventional scheme and shows “1” if W-current flows, “0” if not.

8.7 Patient circuit board

The current supplied by the RF-generator is galvanically separated from the application part through the
transformer Tl. The relays I<l, I(2 serve the optimization of the output power of the corresponding
applications and have slight influence on the adaptation. The thrush L2 balances the output signal and
serves as leakage current sensor. The relays I<3 to I<11 are needed for changes in adaptation or in output.
The circuit DAl, VT1 enables “BICOMATIC-function over monitoring of load resistance and is
galvanically separated, supplied and probed by means of TlO. All sensors (T2 to TlO) except T6 are
probed with a rectangular signal of 7,8 kHa. The neutral plate monitoring containing sensor T6, works
with a frequency of 31,25 kHz.
ZLEKTROTOMO 640 http://www.berchtold.deiET530Pe.htn

8.8 Control circuit board

Hand-/footswitch-control-signal-detection: The test signal is transmitted to the sensors through the

drivers DD2.A, DD3. Simultaneously, the alternated signals are separated according to their polarity and
tested by the pulse detectors DDlO, DD14, DDll and DD13. The input signals of the component 40174
(DD14, DD13) with active/passive hand-/foot switch are the following:

* connect multimeter to TP 3/2 GND. There must be a supply voltage of 10 volts if not, check 10 volts
supply voltage of mains board and check interconnection
0 connect multimeter to TP 1 /TP 2 GND. Switch unit on and activate unit if voltage > 0 volts < 5 volts
the leakage current suppression is activated (see page 31 point 3 - pilot light for RF leakage current
monitoring illuminates)
* connect multimeter to TP 5/TP 2 GND. A ccording to the power adjusted at the rotary there should be
a voltage between 0,5 volts and 7,0 volts - the unit must be switched on and activated.

13.14 The automatic switch off mode with contact- and bipolar contact coagulation does not
function

* check component DA 4 on the power supply board and the cable connections to the control circuit
board
* check component DA 3 on control circuit board.

13.15 - Symbol at the front lights

* check power transistor/driver/optoelectronic coupler on main power supply board and RF generator
board.
* check relays I< 1 and I< 2 on patient circuit PC board for functionality

13.16 Bipolar current is activated automatically without accessory in the hand mode

*Note: This con be proven by RF indication and RF sound

*check component DA 1 (TLC 271 Cl?) on patient circuit pc board
