The PTCA Catheter Fuse-Weld Module, P/N 720006, is one of several modular accessories used with Interface Associates' Hot Air System, Model HB-700.
The Fuse-Weld Module consists of two devices; the Timer Controller (724003) and the Catheter Positioning Module, (720006). They easily attach to the base plate of the Hot Air System by two screws. The Pneumatic Positioning Module places the catheter tip precisely inside of a "U"-shaped hot air nozzle. An electronic timer controls the duration of heating time with 0.1 second accuracy. Loading the catheter and centering it in the fixture is very easy, and takes only seconds.
