The Alsatom MPC System are a new generation of electrosurgical units developed using the digital technology with control system by microprocessor, the latest today available for this kind of devices and the only one able to guarantee both performances really suitable to the actual surgical needs and the very high levels of safety, today compulsory according to the latest safety rule for this type of devices (IEC 60601-2-2 III ed., today already European Standard EN). ALSATOM MPC line is available with 5 models, 4 for monopolar/bipolar use, 1 for bipolar use only.
Alsatom SU 50-MPC
is the basic model for monopolar/bipolar use, has a max output power of 80W, can be used only by setting single foot-switch and it is suitable for general surgery, ORL, dermatology, dental surgery and etc.
Alsatom SU 100-MPC
is the same to the model SU50-MPC but, having a max output power of 140W, it is able to meet better every surgical need, including gynaecology, veterinary and etc. This model is also suitable for fulguration in the bladder under liquid.
Alsatom SU 140-MPC
has the same output power of the model SU100-MPC, but it is more complete as regarding its usage function. In fact it has 2 separate controls, complete of specific display, for the independent setting of cutting and coagulating power and it can be used not only by the foot-switch but also by the hand-switch (cutting/coagulating) pencil.
Alsatom SU 140/D-MPC
is the most complete model of series . It is the same to the model SU140MPC, can be used with handswitch pencil, but it has a technical feature not in common with the units for minor surgery. In fact it is equipped with a double foot-switch for the activation of cutting and coagulation and therefore it results not only the most complete and functional answer for all the above-mentioned needs but even the ideal solution for the first aid, the gastroenterology and etc.
Alsatom SU 140/BD-MPC
is the model for bipolar use for cutting or coagulation with a max output power of 100W. It is the same to the model SU 140 MPC with double foot-switch and 2 separate controls, complete of specific display, for the setting of cutting and coagulation powers.
CONSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY
*Microprocessor control — MPC System
MPC system is a advanced control system of the functioning parameters able to grant a level of performances and safety otherwise unobtainable. The system which performs a complete autodiagnosis switching on the unit and check it in real-time during the use, allows an extremely safe and easy-to-use because, in case of faults, blocks automatically the output power informing the users through specific error codes.
*Automatic adjustment of output powers with dynamic control and stop in case of faults — ADC System with OUTPUT ERROR CONTROL
The output powers are controlled by the microprocessor that ensures an automatic very efficient and dynamic optimisation in every surgical field, carrying out 7000 tests/second thus granting the best surgical results always using the lowest possible power.
This system grants also the maximum safety because, as nowadays it is compulsory according to the latest safety rule, stops in real time the output power, in case of internal faults, and therefore prevents from a sudden and potentially dangerous output power exceeding the selected value.
This system checks also the HF leakage currents and, if there are any load unmatching impedances (patient tissue) reduces automatically the RMS voltage to safety levels.
*Power setting Micro Type with control display Control display for models SU140, SU140/D, SU140/BD *Neutral plate safety circuit and activation signals “sounds and lights” In compliance with IEC Standard 60601-2-2 III ed. (see technical features) *Pneumatic foot-switches All the foot switches are “high safety type” water proof and explosion proof being pneumatic without electrical connection.
