WARNINGS
It is very important that this instruction manual is preserved together with the equipment for any future consultation. If the
equipment have to be sold or transferred to another user make sure that the manual is supplied together with the equip-
ment, so the new user can know the equipment’s working and warnings.
THESE WARNINGS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN FOR YOUR SAFETY AND FOR THE OTHERS ONE, SO WE ASK YOU
TO READ THEM CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING AND USING THE EQUIPMENT.
● After have removed the packing we make sure of the equipment’s integrity. If there is a doubt do not use it and
turn to qualied personnel.
● The electric security of the equipment is assured only when the same is correctly connected to an electric installa-
tion conformable to the standard norms. It is necessary to verify this fundamental requisite of security and, if there
is a doubt, ask for a control by qualied personnel.
● Before connecting the equipment be sure that the rating (on the back panel) is in conformity to the electric system.
● If there is incompatibility between the wall socket and the supply cable of the equipment substitute it with another
one. In general it is not advised the use of adapters, multiple wall sockets and/or extensions. If their use is essen-
tial it is necessary to use only simple adapters and extensions in conformity to the norms of safe.
● The use of any type of electric equipment requires the observance of some fundamental rules. In particular:
▪ do not touch the equipment with wet hands or feet;
▪ do not use the equipment with barefoot.
● Do not expose the equipment to atmospheric agents (rain, sun, etc.)
● Do not keep the equipment uselessly connected. Switch off the general interrupter when the equipment is not used.
● This equipment is destined only to the use for which it has been designed. Every other use is improper and so
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be considered responsible for possible damages caused by improper or
unreasonable uses.
● It is dangerous to modify the characteristics of this equipment.
● Before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance, disconnect the equipment through the plug or switching
off the mains switch.
● If there is a damage or the equipment doesn’t work well, switch it off. For the repairing turn only to a qualied center
of Technical Assistance and ask for the original spare parts. The missed respect of these things can be dangerous
for the safety of the equipment and for the user.
● The use of this equipment is contraindicated:
▪ carriers of pace-maker or of other electronic installed device, or in proximity of such carrier patient..
▪ with cardiac illness.
▪ with serious unbalances of the arterial pressure.
▪ with serious illness of the nervous system.

● It is besides contraindicated its application:
▪ with troubles of the thermic sensibility.
▪ markedly asthenic.
● It is besides contraindicated its application:
▪ in the tumoral focuses.
▪ on noble organs, like heart, vessels, gonads.
▪ on neoplastic lesions.
▪ in progress of contagious infectious illnesses (TBC).
▪ in infanto-juvenile age.
▪ in case of delays of consolidation or pseudorathrosis.
▪ on the anterolateral intercostal zone, on the abdomen and on the segments with means of endotissual synthesis.
▪ on the testicles.
▪ on the eyes.
▪ on the cartilages of growth.
▪ in the thromboses and thromboebitis.
▪ on the abdomen, in all the cases of calculous or inammation.
● There is danger of burns due to too high energy level or to the treatments in the continuous mode with static treat-
ment head.
● A simultaneous connection of the patient to a high frequency electrosurgical unit can produce burns close to the
electrodes of the equipment and it can be damaged.
● Working close to short wave or microwave therapeutic units can produce instability in the output.
● The unit has been designed to conform the actual Norms regarding the electromagnetic compatibility. If the unit is
interfered or interferes with the functioning of other electronic units, we advise you to supply the unit from another
socket or reposition the unit until the interference stops.
● Do not use wireless telephone near the unit to avoid interferences.
● Before every use, verify the state of the equipment and the accessories in order to discover any condition of elec-
tric danger. In particular to examine cables, the connectors and the head of treatment in order to nd eventual
leaks that they could concur the input of conductor liquid.
● Handle with care the transducer, a coarse manipulation can inuence its characteristics negatively.
● Don’t effect treatments to unconscious patient or with troubles of the thermic sensitivity.
● The unit does not t explosive or gas environments.
●●ATTENTION: This unit produces galvanic current. Hold in consideration the electrolytic effects produced by gal-
vanic current.

INTRODUCTION
UTC2 is a programmable ultrasonic therapy unit (frequency of 1 to 3 MHz), electrotherapy (therapeutic current generator,
for short-term use, suitable for transcutaneous nerve, neuromuscular and muscular electrical stimulation treatments) and
combined therapy.
The equipment was produced with advanced electronic technologies and have a high luminosity graphic touchscreen dis-equipment was produced with advanced electronic technologies and have a high luminosity graphic touchscreen dis-
play (size 7”). Control of the units is made through encoder and keys or through touchscreen and have ad intuitive icons
interface with possibility to easy upgrading by USB port.
The equipment are supplied with a high number of stored protocols and can memorize programs.
The unit can be connected, in addition to the electrotherapy accessory, optional transducer handles working at different
size can have connected to the unit, so that you have the chance to choose the one having characteristics that best t
to the treatment to performed. Transducers are a multi-frequency handle and they have the contact check system, that
it stops the allocation of ultrasounds in the case it happen a wrong or missed contact between the probe and the patient.
The check system could be activated or inactivated by the operator. L’unità presenta un sistema di controllo di sicurezza
con disattivazione della corrente di uscita in caso di distacco accidentale dell’elettrodo.
The equipment has two output channels ET1 and ET2 both for electrotherapy and for combined therapy.
Destination of Use
UTC2 UTC2 is an active medical device for combined therapy of ultrasound therapy and / or therapeutic currents used
for the rehabilitation of inammatory states, post-traumatic chronic and postural traumatic states and ionophoreic and
aspiration of active principles in the ambulatory and hospital environment by of physicians specializing in physical therapy.

ULTRASOUNDS
Physical Elements
Ultrasonic waves are sound waves having frequency higher than to that perceivable from the human ear. The perceivable
frequencies from the man are those between 16 and 20.000 Hz. The frequencies under 16Hz are denominated infra-
sound, while those superior to 20kHz are being denominated ultrasounds.
As all the sonorous waves, ultrasounds require a solid, liquid or gaseous solid material to propagate. The propagation
happens when some of the particles of the mean due to a perturbation start to oscillate and solicit the near particles,
because of the molecular interactions. This provokes compressions and decompressions that propagate each other
through the same mean. The sonorous waves are longitudinal, since the direction of the oscillations of the molecules of
the mean is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.
Speed
The speed of propagation of a sonorous wave depends by elastic characteristics of the mean of transmission. For this
reason, it is greater in the solid than in the liquids and it is greater in these last in comparison to the gases.
Medium
Speed(m/sec)
Water 1430
Aluminum 6400
Air 330
Fat 1450
Bone 4080
Blood 1570
Soft tissue 1540
Wavelength
The length of wave is the briefest distance between any two points in which the particles oscillate in phase.
Frequency
The move of a particle from a position and his/her return in the position of departure is dened as cycle. For frequency of
a wave is the number of cycles in the unity of time. The unity of measure of the frequency is the Hertz (Hz).
Amplitude
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum value of the oscillation.
Power
The power is the energy transmitted by a wave in the unity of time.
Intensity
The intensity of a sonorous wave is the energy that crosses the unitary surface in the unitary time.
The unity of measure that one uses is W/cm2.
Duty cycle (cycle of service) or modulation
