Valleylab FORCE FX-8C: Innovative Electrosurgical Generator for Bipolar and Monopolar Surgery

The Valleylab FORCE FX-8C is a cutting-edge electrosurgical generator designed to meet the diverse needs of modern surgical practices. This versatile device is equipped with Instant Response Technology, ensuring consistent power delivery and precise tissue effects across various surgical modalities. Its isolated output provides safe and effective power for cutting, desiccating, and fulgurating tissue, whether performing bipolar or monopolar surgery.

One of the key features of the FORCE FX-8C is its range of operating modes. For bipolar procedures, it offers three distinct modes: precise (low), standard (medium), and macro (high), allowing surgeons to tailor the device's performance to specific clinical needs. In monopolar mode, the FORCE FX-8C provides three cutting modes (low, pure, and blend) and three coagulation modes (desiccate, fulgurate, and spray), offering unparalleled versatility and control.

Safety is paramount with the FORCE FX-8C, which includes the Valleylab REM Contact Quality Monitoring System. This system continuously monitors the patient return electrode’s status, ensuring optimal contact and minimizing the risk of burns. Additionally, the generator supports simultaneous coagulation, a valuable feature during complex procedures requiring multiple instruments.

The FORCE FX-8C is also compatible with the Valleylab CUSA System 200 or CUSA EXcel system for ultrasonic electrosurgery, further expanding its utility. The device’s intuitive design features options for handswitch and footswitch activation, making it adaptable to various surgical setups. Surgeons can also benefit from the recall function, which remembers the most recently used mode and power settings, enhancing workflow efficiency.

On the front panel, users will find easy-to-use controls for setting modes and output power, as well as indicators providing clear information about current settings and the status of the patient electrode. The rear panel includes additional features such as volume control, multiple footswitch receptacles, and ports for RF activation, serial communication, and expansion.

Internally, the FORCE FX-8C is built with high-quality components, including a microcontroller board, display board, footswitch board, RF board, and a robust power supply system. The unit is designed for durability and reliability, with efficient cooling mechanisms like fans and heat sinks to maintain optimal operating conditions.

The compact and robust design of the FORCE FX-8C (35.6 cm width, 45.7 cm depth, 11.1 cm height, and 8.2 kg weight) makes it a practical addition to any operating room. Its self-contained structure, featuring a main enclosure with a power cord, ensures ease of transport and setup. A handle located on the underside of the chassis adds to its portability.

Overall, the Valleylab FORCE FX-8C is a comprehensive and adaptable electrosurgical generator, combining advanced technology with intuitive features to effectively and safely support a wide range of surgical procedures.
