UNIT DESCRIPTION

The Aaron 2250 is a self-contained unit, consisting of the main enclosure and power cord. The main components

incorporated in the generator include:

• Front Panel Components Power switch; membrane switches to control power output and mode selection;

receptacles for connecting electrosurgical accessories; and indicators that show the current settings, patient

return electrode status, and footswitch status.

• Rear Panel Components Volume control; bipolar and monopolar footswitch receptacles; power cable

receptacleand fuse holder; equipotential grounding stud; and remote accessory receptacle.

• Internal Components Display board; main board; speaker board; relay board; power supply; and cables.

Before servicing the Aaron 2250, it is important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions supplied with

the generator. Also, be familiar with any other equipment used to install, test, adjust, or repair the generator.

WARNINGS:

Use the generator only if the self-test has been completed as described. Otherwise, inaccurate

power outputs may result.

The instrument receptacles on this generator are designed to accept only one instrument at a

time. Do not attempt to connect more than one instrument at a time into any given receptacle.

Doing so will cause simultaneous activation of the generator.

CAUTIONS:

Do not stack equipment on top of the generator or place the generator on top of any electrical

equipment. These configurations are unstable and/or do not allow adequate cooling.

Provide as much distance as possible between the electrosurgical generator and other electronic

equipment (such as monitors). An activated electrosurgical generator may cause electrical interfer-

ence with them.

Do not turn the activation tone down to an inaudible level. The activation tone alerts the surgical

team when an accessory is active.

NOTICES:

If required by local codes, connect the generator to the hospital equalization (grounding)

connector with an equipotential cable.

Connect the power cord to a wall receptacle having the correct voltage. Otherwise, product

damage may result.
