Description
The US1000 3rd Edition is an FDA-approved portable therapeutic ultrasound unit intended for personal and clinical use to alleviate pain, muscle spasm, and joint stiffness. It relies on a piezoelectric crystal sound head to convert electrical energy into ultrasound energy and requires ultrasound gel to conduct energy to the skin. The compact device weighs 120 g and is powered by an AC adapter (DC 24 V, 200 mA); a carrying case, ultrasound gel, and instruction manual are included.
Technical specifications describe a fixed 1.0 MHz output frequency (±10%), with three output intensities: Low 1.6 W (0.11 W/cm2), Medium 2.6 W (0.24 W/cm2), High 4.6 W (0.47 W/cm2). Duty cycle options are 7% (Low), 15% (Medium), and 30% (High). The unit operates in Pulse mode with a pulse width of 5.4 ms (±10%) and a repetition rate of 150 Hz (±10%). Maximum temporal power is 8 W (±10%). The timer auto-off is 30 minutes (±1%).
Delivery targets deep ultrasonic energy in soft tissues to promote heating and vasodilation, supporting relief of pain and stiffness during sessions. Includes a six-month warranty.
