6LE7 transducer:
No. Name Function
<1> Transducer head It utilizes the piezoelectric effect to convert electrical signals
into ultrasound waves, which are transmitted to the body, and
to generate electrical signals when receiving the reflected
ultrasound waves (echoes).The lens on the surface is the
acoustic lens. Apply ultrasound gel on the acoustic lens.
<2> Needle-guided
bracket fix tab
Mount the needle-guided bracket using this tab.
<3> Water
injection/drainage
port
Used for inject/drain water
<4> Cable This transmits electrical signals between the transducer body
and connector.
<5> Connector This connects the transducer to the ultrasonic diagnostic
system.
<6> Lock handle This locks the connector to the ultrasonic diagnostic system.
