THE ULTRASOUND TRANSDUCER STORAGE SYSTEM

THE SAFE AND CLEAN WAY TO STORE YOUR TRANSDUCER

• The storage rack provides protection for the transducer probes and transducer connector not in use.
• It protects the electrical connections within the transducer connector from contamination and damage.
• It also provides a safe storage capacity for the transducer probe and reduced stress on the electrical cable between the transducer probe and the transducer connector.

                 METHODS TO JUDGE WHETHER THE ULTRASOUND PROBE WORKING                                                                                         PROPERLY OR NOT......

               It is very common that the ultrasound probe breaks down for various reasons.Here we are telling you how to analyse the malfunction in it.

METHOD-1

APPEARANCE

• Damage on acoustical lens will result in coupling agent into the probe,which affects the detection range or even no image.
• Bubbles on the acoustical lens will lead to this situation,we need to press the lens to get images.
• Acoustic lens is convergence or divergence of sound wave acoustic components,the probe cannot function when lens is missing.

AIR BUBBLE PRESENT

METHOD-2

DARK STRIPES IN ULTRASOUND DISPLAY AREA

• No signal input or output in the probe will lead to dark stripe,reasons may be:
• One quartz vibrator inside the probe breaks down.
• The cables which sends signals break down.
• Copper lines on the signal board break down.
• The chip inside the signal board is burns out.

CRYSTAL DAMAGE

METHOD-3

IMAGE BLURRING

• Normal wear and tear of the probe itself.
• Poor operational environment like temperature,humidity,corrosive gas and dust in the air and other factors may cause instrument malfunction.
• Probe shielded wire and ground wire no grounding or broken lead to interference.
• Due to the frequent use of probe,the cable is easy to damage which results in blurring images.

BROKEN CABLE

                       PROBE COMPONENT OF COMMON FAILURES AND SOLUTIONS

LIST OF COMMON FAILURES

• CRYSTAL FAILURE
• CABLE LEAKAGE
• LENS FAILURE
• SHEATH FAILURE
• CASE FAILURE

CRYSTAL FAILURE

• After long-term use can be caused the crystal of natural aging
• Touch hit will make probe crystal damage

CRYSTAL FAILURE PROBE SHOWS

• Image has dark
• Black bars
• Interference 
• Defects such as blind area
• Affecting the quality of diagnosis

CRYSTAL FAULT SOLUTIONS

• This kind of failure is caused by ultrasound probe wafer short circuit.
• Which can judged by measuring the power supply voltage of the chip.
• If the chip set has a short circuit,Replace the corresponding chip.
• It makes the probe to restore the previous feature.

DAMAGED CRYSTAL ULTRASOUND PROBE

CABLE LEAKAGE FAILURE

• Ultrasound probe cable is adopted by high quality of high muti-fiber sheilded cable and wire.
• The bending and torsion of the cable makes outside of reserve cable insulating layer will be,

• Broken skin
• Fracture
• Revealing the inside line
• Shielding layer damage
• Break

CABLE LEAKAGE FAULT SOLUTION

• Due to probe affected by external force or wrong operates,the probe was not properly placed for a long time.
• Open the outer leather,lateral horizontally gashing the total shielding wire.
• Pick out the deep crack line.
• Welding is completed with transparent tape around one layer.
• Use a multimeter to measure whether it turned on.
• This wire shielding will be connected and wrapped the tape.
• To connect the wire shielding and tie up good adhesive tape.
• After the outermost shielded wire welding,fixed outer holster with high voltage margin plastic tape.
• In this way,you can continue to use probe for a long time.

CABLE BREAKAGE ULTRASOUND PROBE

LENS OF FAILURES

• Acoustic lens is gelatinous professional substance that ultrasound probe contacts the upper body.
• The acoustic lens can cause wear and tear,scratch,crack,corrosion,degumming,blister and other damage after used for long-time.

LENS OF FAULT SOLUTIONS

• With liquid silicone inject in degumming and expelled bubbles.
• With gauze tied the probe for 24 hours before deregulation.
• The fault disappears and the probe returns to normal.
• The failure was caused by unglued match between Acoustic lens and matching layer.
• In dealing with this kind of failure,using liquid silicone rubber for the probe acoustic lens repair materials.

LAYER DAMAGE ULTRASOUND PROBE

SHEATH FAILURE

• Ultrasound probe sheath is ultrasound probe and cable joint reinforcement effect of slab.
• Ultrasound probe sheath important is to prevent the cable right-angle fold the pressure.
• Long-term use can make sheath fracture,falloff and missing,cable broken.
• It also affects the image

BROKEN ULTRASOUND PROBE CABLE

CASING FAILURE

• Shell can be cracked and aged if ultrasound probe for long term use.
• Due to human factors such as throwing,hitting and deformation.
• The quality of the probe shielding enclosure will cause the image unclear.
• There will be serious when the induced current from the front,threatening the patient's body.

CASE DAMAGED ULTRASOUND PROBE

SHEATH AND SHELL DAMAGE SOLUTION

• Handle with care.
• Need to replace the damaged components.
