    MCO25plus Operating Instructions by blowing away any smoke (so-called laser plume) produced during laser application. A smoke evacuator is used to remove the smoke altogether from the surgical site. This can either be a fixed-installation device for exclusive use in the laser room, or a separate unit operated in conjunction with the laser.
  • Page 14: Grounding The Unit

    MCO25plus Operating Instructions 2.12 Grounding the Unit The unit is grounded via the grounding conductor integrated in the power cord. This is an important prerequisite for the safe operation of the unit. If the power cord is connected to the supply source in accordance with the relevant electrotechnical regulations, proper grounding is automatically ensured.
  • Page 15 MCO25plus Operating Instructions To ensure that the irradiation parameters selected cannot be accidentally changed during the laser treatment, all control-panel buttons are blocked (inoperable) as long as the footswitch is held down.

    MCO25plus Operating Instructions Description of the Unit Some General Remarks on the Laser Principle LASER is an acronym meaning “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. The laser (light source) consists of an active medium and an excitation source. This excitation source transforms (“pumps”) the active medium from its normal state into a stimulated energy...
  • Page 20: Range Of Application

    (among other factors, water content and perfusion rate) The application possibilities of the Martin MCO25plus are numerous. Apart from a low penetration depth and a precise cut, its laser-surgical advantages include low patient strain and fast wound healing.
  • Page 21: General Description Of The System

    System Design Options The MCO25plus is available in two versions: with or without scanner. Thanks to the system’s modular design, the performance characteristics of both versions are fully identical. As a scanner can be conveniently added by installing just a few additional components, the modular concept allows easy upgrading of the scannerless system anytime later.
