KARL STORZ Autocon 350 Electrosurgical Unit Analysis Report
Device Identification
The product in the image is a medical electrosurgical device used for cutting tissue or stopping bleeding (coagulation) during surgical operations. It is also commonly referred to in the industry as a “cautery device” or “HF (High Frequency) Surgical Unit”.
Brand and Model
Upon detailed examination of the logos and model numbers on the image, the device’s identity has been determined as follows:
- Brand: KARL STORZ
- Model: Autocon 350
- Catalog/REF Number: 205235 20
The “STORZ – KARL STORZ – ENDOSKOPE” logo is clearly visible on the top left corner of the device’s front panel. In the upper right section, the model name “autocon 350” and model code “205235 20” are clearly legible. Based on this information, it is 100% certain that the product is a KARL STORZ Autocon 350 model electrosurgical unit.
Originality
The logo print quality, typography, color tones (dark blue/grey color scheme specific to the Storz brand), and interface layout on the device’s front panel indicate that it is an original KARL STORZ product. There is no visual doubt that it is an aftermarket or counterfeit product.
Areas of Use
The KARL STORZ Autocon 350 is used in specialties where endoscopic interventions are performed, such as general surgery, urology, gynecology, and gastroenterology. The main functions of the device are:
- Tissue cutting
- Coagulation/Hemostasis
- Bipolar and Monopolar electrosurgical procedures
Quantity Information
The image shows 1 unit of the main electrosurgical unit. White-colored shoe covers/caps-like materials randomly left on the device, unrelated to the product, have not been included in the count.
General Condition and State
The device is in a used (second-hand) condition. While its casing maintains overall integrity, there are signs of extensive use. Its external appearance indicates that the device is not new and has completed a certain portion of its shelf life or operational period. No major breakage that would hinder the device’s function is observed on the metal casing or the plastic front panel.
Physical Deformation
The physical details identified as a result of examinations are as follows:
- On the lower left part of the front panel, in the grey area next to the on/off switch, there is adhesive residue and a stain resulting from the removal of a previously affixed label.
- There are abrasions and dirt on the grey paint around the socket inlets located on the lower right part of the device.
- Dust accumulation and slight dirt deposits due to use are observed on the top cover and corner joints.
Mechanical and Electronic Components
Mechanical Components: The membrane (soft-touch) buttons on the front panel appear physically intact; no tears or punctures are observed on the buttons. The black “I/O” power switch on the left side is in place.
Electronic Components: The device is in the off position in the image. The screens (“888” digit displays) are dark, so pixel loss or screen malfunction cannot be determined from the image. However, no cracks are observed on the physical surface of the screens.
Accessories and Connection Points
On the lower right part of the device, there are sockets for probe and electrode connections:
- From left to right: It is assessed that these are a Bipolar socket, Monopolar sockets, and a Neutral electrode (plate) input.
- Currently, a black-colored adapter or connector part with its tip extending outwards is inserted into the second socket input from the left. A cable connected to the tip of this part is not visible in the image.
- Other accessories such as a foot pedal, neutral electrode plate, or active surgical pencils (cautery pencil) belonging to the device are not present in the image.
- The power (electrical) cable cannot be clearly distinguished in the image; if there is a cable going towards the back of the device in the background, its clarity is low.
Battery Status
These types of desktop (console-type) electrosurgical units usually operate directly with mains electricity (AC). There is no visual indication that the device is a portable/battery-operated model. It is probable that it has an internal memory battery, but this cannot be seen externally.
Label Information
Technical markings and codes identified on the front face of the device:
- Ref Code: 205235 20 (Catalog number identifying the model).
- Panel Texts: The “W (max)” indication states that the device provides power output in watts. Adjustment knobs are available for Cutting (yellow symbols) and Coagulation (blue symbols).
- Symbols: The CF type equipment symbol (suitable for use on the heart, isolated) is visible in the lower right.
Screen Analysis
The device has two separate LED display areas. The left display is designed to show cutting power values, and the right display is designed to show coagulation power values. Since the device is currently unpowered, no error codes or values are readable on the screens.
Potential Malfunction Risk
No serious damage (deep impact, liquid contact marks, burns, etc.) has been observed on the device’s body in the images. However:
- Considering the device’s production technology and physical condition, electronic components (capacitors, etc.) may require age-related maintenance.
- Membrane keypads may lose their sensitivity over time; however, they currently appear visually intact.
- The dirt on the device indicates that it requires detailed cleaning and biomedical calibration before being used in a sterile environment.
In conclusion, the device is a used medical device that visually maintains its integrity, has cosmetic flaws, but is in a “refurbishable” condition.
