2.4 Characterisation of the Individual Current Modes

Note All current modes of the unit are emitted in the constant current mode,
with the exception of simultaneous treatment (see page 37). Here, the de-
vice is automatically switched to a mixed mode consisting of constant cur-
rent and constant voltage mode to avoid unpleasant current sensations
when the contact between skin and transducer is interrupted.

2.4.1 Low-frequency Current Modes (LF)

(G)
Galvanisation
Direct current without any interruption or break
Variation:
Medium-frequency interrupted direct current (8 kHz; duty cycle 95%).
Application:
Note You have to take special care when applying galvanic current. The mois-
tened viscose covers must be well attached to the skin surface. The inten-
sity must not exceed 0.1 mA/cm² of active electrode surface!
