The System 5000™ Electrosurgery Generator (ESU) unites technology with versatility providing the opportunity to fine-tune the electrosurgical generator to specific procedures and surgeon preferences. Unique modes on the System 5000™ include the Fluids Mode, for an additional boost of energy in procedures taking place in a fluid environment, and Lap Mode, which limits open-circuit voltages to below 2700 volts in all modes and reduces the potential risk of inadvertent burns from the capacitive coupling.
