The Aaron 2250 is a multipurpose electrosurgical generator for use in the modern operating room and surgi-center. It features both monopolar and bipolar functions to satisfy all of your surgical demands with safety, flexibility, reliability, and convenience.
Ten Blend Settings
You don’t have to settle for one or two blend modes anymore.
With the Aaron 2250 you have ten different blend settings plus
cut, all with 200 watts maximum power output for the most demanding procedures.
Two Levels of Coagulation
It also has two levels of coagulation: Coagulation (120 watts maximum
power) and Fulguration (80 watts maximum power), plus Bipolar (80 watts
maximum
power).
Digital Power Control
In addition, the Aaron 2250 delivers consistent, repeatable power into varying load
impedances, with BovieFDFS (Fast Digital
Feedback System), thereby greatly reducing
the need for changing the power setting to
obtain the desired surgical effect.
Why 200 Watts instead of 300?
Bovie’s major goal in designing the Aaron 2250 was
to deliver the absolute highest level of safety and quality,
but not waste money on features you rarely use.
One major area of savings can be found in the output
power of 200 watts.
Nearly every hospital specification on an electrosurgical
generator calls for 300 watts of power. Have you ever
asked yourself why you need 300 watts at all stations
when it is used so infrequently? We did. It results in
spending a few thousand dollars more per unit for a
feature that just is not used.
For that matter, how often
do you use over 120 watts of power?
By calling for the Aaron 2250 in most of the surgical
suites, you can save a significant amount of money.
Ten Cutting Blend
Modes…
You don’t have to settle for one or two blend modes
anymore. With Bovie digital technology, you can choose
from ten different blend settings. These are clearly
indicated by the LED blend indicator bar conveniently
located adjacent to the blend button controls.
When no LED is lit the Aaron 2250 delivers pure
cutting power. As the “up” button is pushed the bar begins
to illuminate. As the illumination advances from the bottom
to the top the degree of hemostasis will increase and
cutting speed may decrease.
The Aaron 2250 remembers its last used settings;
so when you turn the unit on, it performs a safety system check
and automatically powers up to the last activated settings.
For your convenience, the power output of the
Aaron 2250 is calibrated in watts with large, illuminated digital
displays. Coagulation Modes…
The Aaron 2250 offers two levels of coagulation: Coagulation
and Fulguration.
Coagulation (pinpoint) provides precise control
of bleeding in localized areas. Fulguration (spray) provides
greater control of bleeding in highly vascular tissues over
broad surface areas. Designed for
Safety…
Electrosurgical safety is a combination of good equipment
design and safe surgical practices. The Aaron 2250, as
part of this combination, represents state-of-the-art design
using the latest digital components.
Bovie incorporated
automatic safety systems into the Aaron 2250 like
self-test circuits, audible tones, discreet outputs, and
isolated output circuitry. BovieNEM means safety is digitally designed
inside. The FCFS (first come first served) discrete output design
of the Aaron 2250 enhances safety by allowing only one
output to be activated at any given time. This feature
assures that only the device you first activate will be an
active device. Secondary commands will not override the
first command.
As an example: while the monopolar foot
controlled output is activated, all handswitching is inactive,
as well as the bipolar footswitch capability.
For additional safety this unit has totally separate
bipolar controls, discrete output, dispersive electrode
fault alarms in both sensing and non-sensing modes,
and is designed with an isolated RF output. With the combination of isolated power output,
its patented BovieNEM, Bovie FCFS technology, and the
constant digital monitoring of all functions, the Aaron
2250 is one of the safest electrosurgical systems
available. The doctor’s responsibility is simply to follow
safe electrosurgical practices to insure his safety and
the safety of the O.R. staff and patient.
Digital Error
Detection…
Digital error detection means unsurpassed safety for
the surgeon, O.R. staff, and patient.
The Aaron 2250
constantly monitors every aspect of the Aaron 2250’s
output. At the sign of any problem the machine instantly
disables the output and displays the appropriate error
code on the display. Built to the Required
Standards…

The Goal…
We wanted to give the surgeon a multi-purpose electrosurgical
generator for use in the modern operating room
or surgi-center. It needed to feature both monopolar and
bipolar functions to satisfy all of his surgical demands
with safety, flexibility, reliability, and convenience. This
needed to be accomplished with today’s economy in mind. |
