Let’s understand the coding
ONE-PIECE CABLES FOR ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHS OR STRESS-TEST |
|
1 | It identifies the plug towards the device, or the device itself |
2 | R: protected from defibrillation ; Void: not protected |
3 | Type of terminals: B (or void) = 4mm Banana, G = Pinch/Grabber, S = Snap |
4 | I: IEC Color Coding |
5-7 | Trunk cable length (cm): 200 cm (standard) or 350 cm (XL) |
8, 9 | NV: the plug towards the device has no screws |
EXAMPLE:
EE100LRSI-200 10-lds cable, with 4mm Banana terminals and Standard length, for LUMED devices
LEADSWIRES FOR ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHS OR STRESS- TEST |
|
1 | Type of terminals: B = 4mm Banana, G = Pinch/Grabber, S = Snap |
2-4 | It identifies the type of plug, towards trunk cable or ECG module |
EXAMPLE:
