    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.
