5.2 Selecting a suitable HF electrode
This handle can also be operated with Erbe HF electrodes (shaft
diameter: 4 mm).
Erbe recommends the use of Erbe HF electrodes. If the handle is
operated with HF electrodes from another manufacturer, please
observe the following: The joint from handle to HF electrodes of
other manufacturers is not standardized. The HF electrode of an-
other manufacture, although it may appear to fit the Erbe han-
dle, may have different dimensions and tolerances, a different
type of insulation, etc. Such differences hold risks for patient and
staff. Erbe Elektromedizin is glad to provide more information as
required.
