The model EN-57M apparatus is intended for cutting and coagulation of soft tissues with high-frequency currents and it represents a modernized version of the Model EN-57. In this new model the number of outlets has been increased, the set of accessories -- improved, the complement of monoactive electrodes -- broadened, a biactive pincer -- added and the design of passive electrodes -- changed. The active electrodes, electrode-holders and cables attached to them are manufactured of materials permitting their steam and air sterilization. Particular consideration has been given to the electric safety of the apparatus in providing protection against burns caused by the high-frequency current.
