FLUID CONTROL Arthro

Controlled precision

FLUID CONTROL Arthro is a new pump system for arthroscopy. Its unique advantage is the way it combines high performance with an overall concept of cost-effectiveness. With new software and technical improvements, the pump is ideal for arthroscopic diagnosis and therapy.

FLUID CONTROL Arthro combines an irrigation and suction pump in a single unit, with an integrated vacuum pump and a roller pump for irrigation. Only one outflow tube is needed – no additional roller pump tube set is required.

Product Catalog

The system at a glance

Intuitive pump operation via an ergonomic touchscreen user interface

Maximum set pressure: 200 mmHg

Maximum set flow rate: 2 L/min.

Tube set management with transponder technology

Recognizes single-use and reusable tubes

For reusable tubes: monitoring of 20 reprocessing cycles

For single-use tubes: invalidated after use, so they cannot be mixed up

Very cost-effective day/patient tube set – pays off from two uses a day

Only the patient tube with special hygienic connector (Care-Lock®) is changed

Intuitive pump operation via touchscreen or autoclavable remote control

Autoclavable remote control for flow, pressure and lavage functions

Lavage function can also be activated with a footswitch

Communication interface with the new PowerSpeed AS1 – set pressure and flow rate are adjusted automatically

A new dimension of performance

Higher pressure – higher performance

The system delivers high pressure and high flow.

A reliable lavage mode ensures a quick, effective view of the procedure and greater flexibility in use.

Maximum set pressure: 200 mmHg
Maximum set flow rate: 2 L/min.

Focused on comfort

Intelligent fluid management controls the entire procedure.

Short response times when pressure rises or falls
Automatic rapid pressure relief if intra-articular pressure rises
Visual and audible warnings
Level compensation: if the pump is below the patient's level, the height difference can be compensated, and FLUID CONTROL Arthro then automatically displays the actual intra-articular pressure.

Efficient operation with profiles

Predefined indication profiles ensure efficient operation. Application parameters for the knee, shoulder and small joints are stored in profiles.

Up to 16 different, individually programmable profiles can be stored

Universal tube set concept

New tube set system for FLUID CONTROL Arthro 2204
The new tube sets have a transponder (RFID coding) that ensures the pump can only be used with the dedicated tubes. As always, a range of tube sets is available for FLUID CONTROL Arthro 2204 to suit users' needs.
Day/patient tube set (4171227)
The two-part tube set consists of a day tube and a patient tube. In the day tube, the irrigation solution flows from the bag through the pump head. The patient tube is located after the pump head and is connected to the day tube with a special hygienic connector.
Reusable tube set (8171223)
For users who perform only a few arthroscopic procedures a day, complete tube sets are available. They can be ordered as single-use products (4171223 with spike or 4171224 with Care-Lock) or as a reusable tube set (8171223).
Vacuum tube (8170401)
With the reprocessable vacuum tube 8170401, the suction pump connector is connected to the suction container via the hydrophobic hygienic filter 4171121. The sterile tube set 4170901 with Y-connector can be used to connect the suction channel to the endoscope and shaver.
