Maximum Probe Temperature

Maximum probe temperature for Vscan Air  – Curved array transducer (for deep scanning),  Linear array transducer (for shallow scanning) and Sector array transducer (for shallow scanning).

---

The table below indicates the maximum probe temperature.

Probe	Max Temp (°C) (Simulated use)	Max Temp (°C) (Still air)
Vscan Air CL – Curved array transducer (for deep scanning)	39.4	48.7
Vscan Air CL – Linear array transducer (for shallow scanning)	40.8	45.8
Vscan Air SL – Sector array transducer (for deep scanning)	39.7	46.7
Vscan Air SL – Linear array transducer (for shallow scanning)	40.8	45.2

    Maximum probe temperature

NOTE: Measurement uncertainty and probe variation: 2.0 °C.

NOTE: The probe will stop scanning, if exceeding an applied part surface temperature of 43°C

NOTE: Lens temperature is measured under conditions per IEC 60601-2-37, Ed2.1
Thermocouple was placed at the geometric center of the lens
Thermal phantom at not less than 33°C or in the range 20-33°C for external probes. Maximum Vscan Air probe temperature rise is measured and added to 33°C. Maximum Vscan Air probe temperature (Simulated use) is <43°C.
With Vscan Air probe transmitting in air, temperature rise is measured and added to 23°C. Maximum Vscan Air probe temperature (Still air) is <50°C. Lens temperature is monitored for 20 minutes.
