Bovie® Monopolar Footswitch
The Bovie Monopolar/Bipolar Footswitch (#BV-1253B) is designed for use with the Specialist PRO (#A1250S), Surgi-Center PRO (#A2350), OR PRO 300 (#A3350), IDS-210, IDS-310, and IDS-400, but performs differently depending on what generator is being used. (Sold per Each)
Monopolar and Bipolar Footswitch:
- When being used with the Specialist PRO, the footswitch acts as a mono and bipolar footswitch, with the yellow button performing monopolar function, and the blue performing bipolar function.
- There is no need to purchase two separate footswitches. This footswitch will perform both monopolar and bipolar functions with a simple switch on the generator itself.
Monopolar Footswitch:
- While being used with the Surgi-Center PRO or OR PRO 300, the footswitch can not perform bipolar functions. Rather, it acts as a dual-monopolar footswitch, with the yellow side performing cutting function, and the blue side performing coagulation.
- A bipolar footswitch allows the use of bipolar forceps, while a monopolar footswitch allows the use of pads and pencils.
