A 0-50 digital display power setting indicator provides the operator a parallax free reading of the power setting (+/- 5watts, full scale @ 100 ohms). A bar graph display output current monitor provides the operator a relative measure of the output current amplitude and to denote the presence of output energy during activation. The handswitch is powered by an independent low voltage (7 Vdc) isolated power supply. Audio and Visual monitors are in accord with IEC 601-1-2 and ANSI HF-18 guidelines. RF and Low Frequency leakages are well within IEC 601-1-2 and ANSI HF-18 safety guide lines lines for isolated (body floating) bipolar coagulators. This device is substantially equivalent to existing approved devices.
