Grounding Pads

SWAROPLATE Non-Split Grounding Pads (Neutral Electrodes / Diathermy Pads)

Those electrodes are for standard applications with HF - surgery devices which have no Contact Quality Monitoring (CQM). The disadvantage of this type of application is that there is no dynamic control of the electrode - this means that the generator is not able to detect if the electrode is coming off the patient.

SWAROPLATE Diathermy Pads / Neutral Electrodes

• A list of compatible HF-surgery devices is available.
• Meets the requirements of IEC 60601-2-2:2009.
• For correctly applied electrodes the maximum temperature rise under standard load according IEC 60601-2-2 is typically < 4°C. Limit according to the standard is < 6°C.
• NE contact-impedance is typically 1 Ohm (for adult size electrodes).
• Shelf life is 24 months in the originally sealed bag.

The advantages of SWAROPLATE Diathermy Pads / Neutral Electrodes:

• Stays in place - The adhesiveness of the foam border and of the conductive gel make sure that the electrode will not come off. This means that there is practically no danger of burnings with SWAROPLATE
• Ready to be used - Just remove the protective sheeting and apply the electrode on the prepared skin. There is no additional gel required!
• Highly flexible with excellent skin compatibility - Gel and adhesive foam are tolerated even by a sensitive skin. There is no gel left on the skin after the application
