Chapter 3: Preparing the Ultravision™ system for use
This section describes how to prepare the Ultravision system for use, specifically:
•

Periodic inspection

• Charging a battery using the battery charging station
• Inserting and removing a battery
• Preparing the mains converter for use.
• Preparing the Ultravision system for use:
○ Use with instruments requiring a patient return electrode
○ Use with instruments that do not require a patient return electrode
Warning
Read all warnings, cautions and instructions provided with the system and its accessories before use. Failure to do so could
result in death serious injury to the patient or operator.
Periodic Inspection
The Ultravision system should be visually inspected at least once every year regardless of use. This inspection should
include checks for:
• Damage to the generator and recharging station.
• Damage to the battery recharging station power cable and plug.
• Damage to the mains converter and its power supply including the cable and jack.
• Damage to the patient return adaptors cable or connectors.
• Proper mating between the patient return adaptors and the Ultravision generator and electrosurgical generator.
Warning
Do not use the Ultravision system with any damaged component. Damaged cables must be replaced before use. If there is
any damage to the Ultravision generator or battery recharging station, contact Alesi Surgical or its local distributor.
Charging the battery using the Ultravision™ Battery Recharging Station
A battery should be recharged when purchased and whenever the Ultravision generator battery level indicator is red or flash-
ing red. To fully charge a battery from zero to full power takes approximately 12 hours. A fully charged, new battery should
provide at least 10 hours use of the Ultravision system.
1. Inspect the battery recharging station power cable for any signs of damage.
2. If there is no evidence of damage, attach the power cable to the recharging station.
3. Attach the correct face plate to the power cable plug and insert into a grounded, hospital-grade wall socket and
confirm that the power/fault indicator light is illuminated green.
4. Insert a battery into a docking bay, ensuring that the battery terminals engage fully with the recharging station
terminals. Confirm that the battery charging indicator is illuminated orange.
5. Allow the battery to charge until the charging indicator is extinguished. Remove the battery from the docking bay.
6. Unplug the power cable from the wall socket.
Batteries should be stored in a dry, clean environment when not in use.
Warning
Connect the battery charger power cable to a properly grounded, hospital-grade power socket of the correct voltage. Plug
the power cable directly into the power socket without any extension cables and/or adaptors. The use of extension cables
may increase the risk of a fire hazard.
The battery recharging station has been certified for use outside the immediate operating theatre environment. It does not
have sufficient reserve voltage or current protection to allow safe contact with the patient.
Caution
Batteries must be recycled and not incinerated or disposed of in general hospital waste disposal. Do not attempt to directly
connect the negative and positive terminals of a battery.
The battery contains acid and no attempt should be made to disassemble a battery.
