The device is a control unit, which is connected to an ac power supply and a handpiece hose, that drives a dc electric micromotor, and turns on or off or regulates the speed of the motor by the foot control of the dental unit. It has a provision for a low voltage dc power supply for the handpiece with light. It is intended as a control unit for the handpiece used in general dental applications for work such as cutting a tooth for crown preparation, cavity preparation, finishing the crown, inlay or the filling, polishing, prophylaxis and endodontic treatment, with use of straight, right- and contra-angle ISO E-type attachment, with or without internal coolant, of equal, step-up, or step-down speed sheath. The maximum free speed of the electric micromotor is 40,000 rpm.

Special Note:

The electric micromotor and its cord are not autoclavable; therefore, an adequate covering by plastic sleeving as commonly used in dental for infection control method should be used during treatment.
