Medtronic Valleylab FT10 Energy Platform Features
The Medtronic Covidien Valleylab FT10 energy platform delivers precise amounts of energy with improved performance for faster sealing and cutting times. The Built-in smart TissueFect, on the Covidien FT10, is a tissue sensing technology that improves the speed and consistency of current hand-held devices by reading tissue composition in real-time. TissueFect, on the Valleylab FT10, examines device performance 434,000 times per second, monitoring tissue impedance and allowing effective and efficient energy delivery. The Medtronic FT10 provides RF energy for monopolar and bipolar surgical applications as well as tissue-fusion and vessel-sealing applications. The Touchscreen is divided into four sections for user input and viewing capabilities. This Energy Platform (VLFT10GEN) will automatically detect coded handsets and configure the energy platform accordingly. Medtronic Valleylab offers a variety of Electrosurgical units, such as the Medtronic Covidien Valleylab Force Triad.

Refurbished Medtronic Valleylab FT10 Electrosurgical Units
Soma Tech Intl offers the Valleylab FT10 Electrosurgical Units up to 50% below OEM prices with the same service and warranty as new. Soma Tech technically and cosmetically refurbishes these Medtronic Valleylab electrosurgical units back to the original engineering manufacturer specifications. Using highly skilled, trained, and certified in-house biomedical engineers these units are fully tested, disassembled, and if necessary, parts are replaced. Once all the parts of the Valleylab FT10 Electrosurgical Units are in working order, the electrosurgical units are calibrated back to OEM specifications, to make sure they work exactly the way they did when they originally left the manufacturer. Soma Tech not only refurbished the product, but each unit also goes through a Special cosmetic restoration process. The Valleylab FT10 is cleaned and minor scratches and dentures are repaired, and decals are replaced if necessary.
Soma Tech Intl also purchases used and pre-owned Valleylab FT10s’ s. If you or your facility wants to sell your surgical tables, Soma Technology has an experienced purchasing department that makes the process headache and hassle-free. When selling your Medtronic Valleylab FT10 to Soma, there is no need for a middle man, it is a direct transaction to Soma which ensures that you get top dollar for your medical equipment. Soma Tech not only buys electrosurgical units but also buys a wide variety of different medical equipment if your medical facility is looking to free up space.
