Bovie A1204 Reusable Metal Plate

Yes, the Bovie A1204 Reusable Metal Plate is designed for extensive compatibility across many Bovie electrosurgical units, serving as a durable, reusable grounding solution. This reusable metal plate can be used with both current and legacy generators, including:

• Current PRO Series: Bantam PRO (#A952), Specialist PRO (#A1250S), Surgi-Center PRO (#A2350), and OR PRO 300 (#A3350).
• Legacy Models: A1250, A1250U, A2250, and A3250.

Note: To function, the plate must be paired with a compatible return electrode cord, such as the #A1254C or the A1204 Reusable Cord (#A1204C).

The Bovie A1204 Reusable Metal Plate is designed for connection to the electrosurgical system using one of the following Bovie return electrode cords:

• Return Electrode Cord (#A1254C)
• Reusable Cord (#A1204C)

Proper connection with one of these cords is essential for using the plate as a durable, reusable grounding component.

Yes, for optimal performance and electrical contact, Bovie recommends using a standard ultrasound gel when applying the A1204 Reusable Metal Plate.

Recommended examples of suitable application mediums include:

• Parker Aquasonic 100
• Aquasonic Clear

Yes, the Bovie A1204 Reusable Metal Plate features a rectangular design with specifically rounded corners to ensure patient safety and facilitate easier handling during clinical procedures.

For optimal conductivity and performance, Bovie recommends using standard ultrasound gels such as Parker Aquasonic 100 or Aquasonic Clear.

Yes, the Bovie A1204 Reusable Metal Plate is designed for repeated use, providing a cost-effective and waste-reducing solution for electrosurgical grounding. It can be used with various Bovie electrosurgical generators.

The Bovie A1204 Metal Plate functions as the crucial patient return electrode (or grounding plate) for Bovie electrosurgical generators. Its purpose is to safely complete the electrosurgical circuit by collecting the current from the patient and returning it efficiently to the generator.

Key Benefits and Usage

• Reusable Design: This plate is a durable, long-term component, providing an economic alternative to disposable pads.
• Dimensions: It features standardized dimensions of 6 inches by 4 inches.
• Optimal Use: For safe and effective conductivity, a standard ultrasound conductive gel (such as Parker Aquasonic 100) must be applied to the contact surface before placement.
