Mix-up of sockets on monopolar socket modules 20140-622,
20140-623
If the sockets are mixed up, the unit will be damaged.
If you use a connecting cable with a monopolar 4 mm dia. connec-
tor, you may only plug the connector into the socket with the blue
ring. The correct socket is marked with an arrow on the illustra-
tion.

Very long activation cycles without cooling phases
The electrosurgical unit is designed and tested for a relative activa-
tion time of 25% (in accordance with IEC 60601-2-2). If you perform
long activation phases without the appropriate cooling phases, there
may be gradual heating under the neutral electrode or the unit may
be damaged.
Risk of burns to the patient!
Keep to the 25 % relative ON time (see also Technical Data, Oper-
ating Mode), if you operate the unit for a lengthy period.
Use of non-approved internal cables by Technical Service
This can result in the increased emission of electromagnetic waves or
reduce the immunity of the unit.
Risk of injury to patient and medical personnel.
The unit may fail or not perform properly.
Technical Service may only use the internal cables that are listed
in the service manual for the unit.
Notes
Grounding
Note: Connect the grounding pin on the unit to the grounding system of the operating
room using a grounding cable if required.
Use of a defibrillator
Note: All HF sockets and the neutral electrode socket (applied parts) meet Type CF re-
quirements and are protected against the effects of defibrillator discharge.
Measures against smoke during
electrosurgical interventions
Note: Erbe recommends using a smoke evacuation system, protective goggles, and a
respirator.
