Proper Use of Transducers
Figure 6-2 Image Orientation Mark
To extend the service life and maintain optimum transducer performance, please operate as follows:
Inspect transducer cable, socket and acoustical window of the transducer periodically.
Shut down the machine before connecting or disconnecting the transducer.
Do not drop the transducer onto the floor or collide with hard objects. Otherwise it will be
damaged easily.
Do not heat the transducer.
Do not pull or bend the transducer cable.
Coupling gel can only be used on the head of the transducer, and it should be wiped off after use.
Clean and disinfect the transducer after every use.
The acoustical window and the shell of the transducer should be examined frequently.
1. Do not disinfect or clean transducers under high temperature. The temperature should be below
45°C.
2. To avoid damaging the device, the disinfection method is limited to regular maintenance of
devices in hospitals. Disinfecting instruments should be cleaned first.
3. The coupling gel adapted to the transducer is a medical ultrasound coupling gel. Use only
ultrasound coupling gel that complies with local regulations.
