Covidien/Valleylab Force Triad Electrosurgical Generator

The Covidien/Valleylab Force Triad energy platform is a comprehensive electrosurgical system that offers a wide range of surgical capabilities including precise cutting and coagulation, bipolar functionality, and efficient vessel sealing. This advanced generator combines all these features into a single unit, making it suitable for both open and laparoscopic procedures. The system incorporates three cutting-edge technologies – TissueFect, Valleylab, and LigaSure fusion – to enhance surgical precision and efficiency. With its intuitive interface consisting of three touchscreens, users can easily control and manage the functions of the system.

FEATURES:

• TissueFect sensing technology to precisely manage energy delivery.
• Enhanced LigaSure tissue fusion technology that fuses vessels up to 7mm, lymphatics, pulmonary vasculature, and tissue bundles.
• alleyLab mode that provides a unique combination of monopolar hemostasis and dissection.
• Automatic instrument recognition.
• Compatible with conventional electrosurgical instruments and all current and new LigaSure instruments.

• REM Contact Quality Monitor:
• Interrogation frequency:80 kHz ± 10 kHz
• Interrogation current: < 100μA
• Interrogation voltage: < 12V RMS
  
  
• Acceptable Resistance Range:
• REM resistance measurements are ± 10% during RF activation and ± 5% when RF output is not activated.
• REM patient return electrode: 5 to 135 ohms or up to a 40% increase in the initial measured contact resistance (whichever is less).
• If the measured resistance is outside the acceptable range(s) noted above, a REM fault condition occurs.
  
  
• REM Alarm Activation:
• REM patient return electrode: When the measured resistance exceeds the standard range of safe resistance (below 5 ohms or above 135 ohms) or when the initially measured contact resistance increases by 40% (whichever is less), the REM alarm indicator enlarges and flashes red and yellow, a tone sounds twice, and RF output is disabled. The indicator remains illuminated red and yellow until you correct the condition causing the alarm. Then, the indicator illuminates green, and RF output is enabled.
  
  
• Autobipolar:
• The ForceTriad energy platform is equipped with an auto bipolar feature that allows for the automatic activation of bipolar energy.
• Note: The autobipolar electrode function requires the use of the Valleylab E0018 bipolar Instrument cord.
• Autobipolar Specifications:
  • Interrogation frequency: 80 kHz ± 10 kHz.
  • Interrogation current: < 100 μA.
  • Activation impedance: 20 Ω to 500.
  • Deactivation impedance: User selectable: 1,500 Ω 1,800 Ω or 2,200 Ω.
  • Measurement accuracy: ± 14% of Full-Scale activation impedance while keying active above 10 watts.
  • + 50%, -14% of full-scale activation impedance while keying active at 10 watts or below.
  • ± 5% of Full-Scale activation impedance while keying inactive.
  • Keying delay: User selectable in 500 msec increments from 0 sec to 2.5 sec
    
    
• Duty Cycle:
• Under maximum power settings and rated load conditions, the ForceTriad energy platform is capable of operating a duty cycle of 25% defined as 10 seconds active and 30 seconds inactive, in any mode for 4 hours.
• Caution
• Use of duty cycles greater than 25% (10 seconds active followed by 30 seconds inactive) will increase the risk that heat build-up under a return electrode may be high enough to injure the patient. Do not continuously activate for longer than one minute.
