Force Fx Valleylab Operator Manual Instructions
The Valleylab™ FX8 energy platform drives electrosurgical handpieces with precision using lower levels of energy.1,2 It’s designed to support a wide range of surgical procedures that require division, hemostasis, and dissection.
Along with cut, coag, and soft coag modes, the Valleylab™ FX8 energy platform enables two unique modes that can bring new possibilities to your procedures:
- Valleylab™ mode provides a unique combination of monopolar hemostasis and division2,([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE0068753, A quantitative comparison to conventional monopolar electrosurgery: L-hook monopolar drag force measurements.
