What is enPulsPro?
A state of the art therapeutic massager.
Radial pulse therapy
Radial Pulse Therapy is a procedure for relief of minor muscle aches and
pains and for temporary increase in local blood circulation.
What does
enPulsPro do?
The handpiece contains a projectile that is accelerated through the
electromagnetic transfer of kinetic energy. This kinetic energy is transferred
into impact energy in the applicator head. The impact energy delivered from
the applicator head results in radial pulses developed in the target tissue.
With enPulsPro, a maximum penetration depth of about 35 mm into human
tissue can be achieved.
How does the
enPulsPro generate
radial pulses?
An electromagnetic field is generated at the rear end of the handpiece by
means of a coil.
A projectile is accelerated through the field crashing into the applicator head
at the front of the handpiece generating radial pulses that spread radially into
the tissue.
Why enPulsPro?
The innovative technology allows for a compact design without a
compressor.
The modern multi-color display, showing all therapy-relevant parameters, the
modern touch operation and the ability to simultaneously connect 2
handpieces.
Customizable program startup settings and a clear, simple menu offer
maximum convenience for the user.
Adjustable frequencies and various applicators enable the therapy to be
tailored to the respective status of the patient.
What else does
enPulsPro offer?
An integrated VAS scale provides an orienting overview of the chronological
progression and success of the therapy.
Intended Use
enPulsPro is an electromagnetic therapy system for the generation and
application of radial pulses in orthopedics and physiotherapy.
Note:
The application of the device is reserved to medical professionals (such as
physicians, therapists and health paraprofessionals).
enPulsPro has been constructed and designed solely for the application on
superficial skin problems in humans.
The device is intended for use mechanical massage devices.

Operating Instructions
8.1 Device Description

Page 10
Handpiece
The handpiece (7) contains the radial pulse generator, a cooling fan for heat
dissipation and the socket for the various applicator heads. It is connected to
the control device (1).
Note:
The pulse generator in the handpiece is a wear part and must be replaced
after a certain period of operation, as its ability to function decreases with time.
Zimmer MedizinSysteme GmbH guarantees the unrestricted use of at least
two million shocks per radial pulse generator.
Depending on power and frequency, the generator can produce far in excess
of 2 million radial pulses.
Further information regarding the need to replace the pulse generator can be
found in Chapter 16.
In order to use the handpiece on the patient, an applicator head must be
completely and securely screwed onto the handpiece.
Interval operation
The handpiece is not suitable for continuous operation. The heat resulting
from friction increases the temperature of the applicator head with increasing
duration of treatment, to such a degree that thermal damage to the patient
cannot be ruled out.
Please refer to the maximum values for the treatments in the figure in Chapter
9.1. After reaching the specified values, the treatment must be interrupted and
can only be resumed once the applicator head has cooled down to room
temperature.
Note:
Please note that the temperature monitoring of the handpiece (described on
page 1)1 only demonstrates a technical shutdown to protect the mechanical
parts inside the handpiece. It provides no information regarding the
temperature of the applicator head.
Recommendation:
To avoid interruption to ongoing therapy in treatments with more than 6,000
pulses, the connection of a second hand piece is recommended.
During the cooling phase for one handpiece, you can switch to the second
hand piece and immediately continue the treatment.
Note:
When switching from one handpiece to another during ongoing therapy, the
pulse frequency and the number of shocks remain unchanged. The pulse
energy returns to 0 and must be reset.
Operating Instructions
8.1 Device Description

Page 11
Handpiece
temperature
monitoring /
regulation
The generation of mechanical shock energy causes substantial heat
generation within the handpiece. A thermal safety switch is integrated so that
the life of the handpiece is not affected. In the event of overheating, an internal
shut-off switch ensures the cooling down of the handpiece.
In addition to temperature monitoring, enPulsPro features temperature
regulation by means of a temperature sensor in the handpiece. The fan in the
handpiece starts upon activation using the footswitch and automatically stops
when a certain temperature is reached.
When the temperature reaches a critical level, a cooling phase is initiated.
This is indicated in the display by the following message:
"Overtemperature in the applicator. Please allow the applicator to cool."
The emission of pulses is no longer possible.
After confirming the message with "OK", the treatment screen comes to the
foreground. In the selection window of the handpiece, the handpiece is shown
a deactivated. The time required for the applicator to cool down is displayed.
Applicator heads
There are 3 different applicator heads available for therapy.
Changing the
applicator heads
To change the different applicator heads, hold the handpiece with one hand
and unscrew the applicator head from the handpiece with the other hand,
turning in an anti-clockwise direction. Then screw in the desired head, turning
clockwise until it stops.
Note:
The applicator heads are subject to wear and must be replaced after a certain
period of operation (see Chapter 13.2 Maintenance).
Footswitch
Position the corresponding foot switch in such a way that is can be easily
reached during therapy. The control element of the switch is not direction-
dependent, meaning that the precise alignment of the footswitch is not
necessary.
To avoid damage, ensure that only light pressure is applied to the switch. The
switch should be operated with the front of the foot, not the heel.
The switch has no locking mechanism, i.e. it only remains activated for as long
as pressure is applied to the switch.
