  • Page 11 APC 300 and ERBE electrosurgical equipment meet all relevant generally recognized rules of technology as well as the applicable work safety and accident-avoidance regulations. The combination of the APC 300 and one of the electrosurgical units listed below together with an ERBE APC applicator is a well-thought-out system of interrelated elements.
  • Page 12 Training The APC 300 may only be used by persons who have been given training in the correct use of the APC 300 or the combination of appliances (APC 300 - electrosurgical equipment, instrumentation) which has taken these operating instructions into consideration.
  • Page 13 +10° C, or especially below 0°, the equipment will require about 3 hours to acclimatize to room temperature. ATTENTION: The APC 300 must be set up in a way that permits air to freely Ventilation circulate around the case. The unit must not be set up in narrow niches or shelves.
  • Page 14 Take note of visual and audible error indications. Do not set the volume of the actuation signals for COAG, CUT and PURGE too low. Do not use laser safety goggles It is possible that the APC 300 display may no longer be visible with laser safety goggles.
  • Page 15 Notes on Safety • 2 Dangers associated with argon plasma coagulation Argon Plasma Coagulation is a monopolar high frequency surgical method i.e., high frequency current flows through the patient's body to the neutral electrode, as is generally the case in monopolar electrosurgery. Burns, damage to tissue WARNING! All safety regulations concerning monopolar high frequency surgery are applicable.
  • Page 16 WARNING! When applying APC in body cavities, it is imperative to ensure that the endoluminal gas pressure does not rise excessively. Maintenance The APC 300 should be safety-checked at least once a year. Alterations and repairs may only be performed by ERBE or by persons expressly authorized by ERBE.
  • Page 17 Defective or inadequate insulation can cause patient burns. Training The APC 300 may only be used by persons who have been given training in the correct use of the equipment or the combination of appliances (APC 300- electrosurgical equipment) which has taken these operating instructions into consideration.
  • Page 18 4. Select power limitation Power should be set as low as possible: The recommended dosages as noted above apply for ERBE electrosurgical units ICC 200, 300, 350. Of course the physician takes the final responsibility in each case.
  • Page 19 Notes on Safety in the Medical Specialties • 3 • Never activate the APC probe while it is in contact with tissue. • Never press the distal tip of the APC probe against an organ wall before or during activation. During APC, distention of the organ being treated can cause discomfort to 6.
  • Page 20 3 • Notes on Safety in the Medical Specialties The 10 Commandments of APC in Flexible Endoscopy You shall not confuse Argon Plasma Coagulation with Argon Laser. The two are completely different. You shall always test Argon Plasma ignition and the electric arc outside the endoscope before inserting the APC probe into the working chan- nel.
  • Page 21 Notes on Safety in the Medical Specialties • 3 You shall take care that the APC probe does not touch the organ wall during activation; however, your application shall be near enough to ensure Argon Plasma ignition. for ignition closer when ignited distance 3 to 10 mm You shall never press the activated probe into tissue or against the organ...
  • Page 22 3 • Notes on Safety in the Medical Specialties You shall set the power limit of the electrosurgical unit and the activation duration adequately according to wall thickness in the affected organ (e.g. an upper limit of max. 40 W in the right colon, but higher power for a large tumor, see Recommended Dosages).
  • Page 23 Notes on Safety in the Medical Specialties • 3 APC in bronchoscopy Emphysemas WARNING! Argon plasma coagulation in a non contact procedure. Do not hold the distal end of the activated applicator against or insert it into tissue. Emphysemas can result. Intraluminal gaspressure WARNING! When using argon plasma coagulation, argon flows into the lumen of the organ.

  • Page 25 For this reason the units must be installed on the APC 300 in such a way that their cases are not in electrical conducting contact with the APC 300 casing: i.e. the aforementioned electrosurgical units must be electrically insulated and installed on the surface provided on the APC 300.
  • Page 26 If these tolerances are exceeded in either ways, the unit may break down. Ventilation The APC 300 must be set up in a way that permits air to freely circulate around the case. The unit must not be set up in narrow niches or shelves. Protection from moisture The APC 300 is protected against penetration by liquids according to EN 60- 601-2-2 .

  • Page 27: Changing Cylinders

    Always use the safety belt on the mobile equipment trolley. Input pressure The input pressure at cylinder connections 1 and 2 of the APC 300 may not exceed 4.5 bar (65.25 psi). If the unit is connected to a central argon supply, the input pressure may not exceed 2.5 bar (36.25 psi).
  • Page 28 300 must be modified by a technician if a central argon supply is used. Connecting argon cylinders The input pressure at cylinder connections 1 and 2 of the APC 300 may not exceed 4.5 bar (65.25 psi). ERBE advises working with two argon cylinders with a volume of 5 liters and a pressure of 200 bar (2900 psi).
  • Page 29 2. Remove the pressure hose of the argon cylinder at the rear of the APC 300. 3. Place the hose opening on the drainage pin at the rear of the APC 300 and press. The hose contains a residue of argon which escapes with a loud hissing noise.
  • Page 30 5 • Changing Cylinders The system will now automatically be rinsed with argon by the APC 300. If the presure hose and pressure reducer are fitted tightly, no further hissing noises should be audible! Changing cylinder data 1. Call up the menu point Changing cylinder data.
