Key components included in the standard kit are:
- Control and Activation: The 3-Button Power Control Pencil (#A902), which is autoclavable and allows users to adjust power settings directly from the handpiece.
- Electrode Assortment: A generous supply of disposable electrodes and dermal tips, including:
- 5 Sterile Monopolar Electrodes (Blade, Needle, and Ball types).
- 18 total Dermal Tips (Sharp, Blunt, and Derm-Elite varieties in both sterile and non-sterile configurations).
- 4 Disposable Handpiece Sheaths (2 sterile, 2 non-sterile).
- Safety and Grounding:
- 5 Disposable Split Grounding Pads (#ESRE).
- 2 Reusable Grounding Cords (#A1252C).
- Installation: A Wall Mount Kit (#A837) for convenient, space-saving installation, along with a 15-foot 110 VAC Hospital-Grade Power Cord.
Does the Bantam PRO have precise power control?
Yes, the Bovie Bantam PRO is engineered for highly precise and intuitive power control, ensuring accuracy across its operational modes.
Key features that ensure granular control and ease of use include:
- Fine Adjustment Increments: Power can be precisely adjusted in 1/10 watt increments within the 0.1 to 10-watt range, which is critical for delicate desiccator procedures.
- Intuitive Controls: The unit features a large, smooth rotary power-control dial and easy-touch, color-coded membrane pads for quick mode selection and power changes.
- Dual Power Control: You can adjust the power up or down directly using the included 3-Button Power Control Pencil (#A902), allowing for seamless changes without breaking the sterile field.
- Memory Feature: The generator improves workflow efficiency by automatically powering up to the last used mode and power settings, ensuring immediate readiness.
Overall, the generator delivers a maximum of 50 watts for Monopolar Cut, Blend, and Coagulation modes, and up to 40 watts for Bipolar and Spray Coagulation procedures.
What advanced safety features does the generator include?
The Bovie Bantam PRO Electrosurgical Generator is equipped with sophisticated safety systems to ensure secure and reliable procedures:
- BovieNEM Pad Sensing Technology: This critical feature continuously monitors the contact quality of the patient return electrode (grounding pad). If the quality of the contact degrades, the system instantly detects the issue and disables the RF output, minimizing the risk of burns.
- Digital Error Detection: The unit constantly monitors its internal operations. Upon detection of any internal malfunction, the system instantly disables the energy output and displays the relevant error code.
- Isolated RF Output: The generator utilizes an isolated RF output design, which is essential for enhancing overall electrical safety.
What are the versatile electrosurgical modes?
The Bovie Bantam PRO is an exceptionally versatile unit, functioning as both an electrosurgical generator and a high-frequency desiccator. It offers six distinct operating modes to cover a comprehensive range of surgical procedures, from precise cutting to delicate micro-coagulation.
Available Operating Modes and Power
| Mode | Max Power | Key Application and Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Cut I | 50 W | Provides a pure cutting waveform for clean incisions with minimal tissue damage. |
| Blend | 50 W | Delivers a controlled mix of cutting and coagulation, optimizing hemostasis while cutting. |
| Coagulation | 50 W | Used for highly precise, localized control of bleeding. |
| Spray Coagulation | 40 W | Also known as Fulguration, this mode uses high-voltage sparking for non-contact, shallow tissue desiccation. |
| Bipolar | 40 W | Standard bipolar coagulation, limiting current flow to a confined area between the forceps tips. |
| Micro Bipolar | 40 W | Ideal for gentle coagulation in delicate procedures, offering refined control. |
For enhanced precision, power adjustments can be made with a fine 1/10 watt resolution (0.1 to 10 watts) across the desiccator and bipolar functions.
Does the Bovie Bantam PRO remember previous settings?
Yes, the Bovie Bantam PRO Electrosurgical Generator is designed to automatically power up to the last activated mode and power settings, offering convenience for medical professionals.
What advanced control handpiece is provided?
The Bovie Bantam PRO Electrosurgical Generator includes the 3-Button Power Control Pencil (Model #A902). This handpiece is engineered to provide the user with enhanced control and flexibility during procedures.
Key features of the A902 handpiece include:
- Integrated Power Adjustment: It allows users to instantly adjust the power output directly on the handpiece, even when the system is activated via an optional footswitch.
- Sterilization: The handpiece is autoclavable for efficient reuse.
- Compatibility: It fits all industry-standard 3/32” (0.24 cm) disposable and reusable electrodes.
