What to check when buying a used GE LOGIQ e R9
Inspect the power cord and AC/DC adapter
An adverse-event report on a LOGIQ e adapter describes heat and arcing at the power-cord connector, attributed to foreign conductive material in the connection.
How: Look over the cord, plug, appliance inlet and adapter for damaged insulation, weak strain relief, debris or heat marks, and confirm the adapter's label voltage matches your site.
Have a biomed run the electrical safety tests
Ground continuity and leakage tests show whether the console and each probe are safe to use on patients.
How: Ask for ground continuity from the plug's ground pin to exposed metal, chassis leakage and each probe's leakage current, and if a probe fails, retest it on another connector or swap probes to tell a probe fault from a console fault.
Reject a damaged, leaking or deformed battery
The console carries internal lithium-ion battery packs, and a damaged or leaking pack is a safety fault rather than wear.
How: Inspect each battery pack for damage, leakage, an odor, deformation or discoloration.
Test boot, battery operation and the logs
A unit that will not run on battery points to a broken battery, a poor battery connection or a charger-board fault, and the logs show faults a short demonstration can miss.
How: Boot it from AC and from battery, waiting after each shutdown before powering on again, then run it on battery alone with probes disconnected until it shuts down, recharge it, and review the error, temperature and configuration logs and any battery-expiry reminder on screen.
Common questions about the GE LOGIQ e R9
Is the GE LOGIQ e R9 FDA-cleared?
The LOGIQ e is FDA-cleared under 510(k) K232186, decided on November 3, 2023.
Earlier 510(k) clearances naming the LOGIQ e are K151028 (June 18, 2015), K133533 (February 12, 2014), K113690 (December 29, 2011) and K072797 (October 17, 2007); the last two also name the LOGIQ i and Vivid e. The clearances name the LOGIQ e, not a particular revision.
Does the GE LOGIQ e R9 offer contrast imaging in the US?
No. Contrast is an optional operating mode of the LOGIQ e, and it is not available in the United States.
What are the GE LOGIQ e R9 console model numbers?
GE designates the LOGIQ e consoles H48942CC (TB Basic Console), H48942CD (TP Basic Console), H48942CH (TP CKD console), H48322DB (TP CKD with Probe Check) and H48322DC (TP Basic with Probe Check).
The LOGIQ e Vet Basic Consoles are H48942CE (TB) and H48942CF (TP).
Which GE systems share the LOGIQ e R9's service manual?
The LOGIQ e basic service manual for R11.x.x software also applies to the LOGIQ Xe Expert, Pro and Performance; the LOGIQ He Expert, Pro, Performance, Elite, Super, Standard, Surgery and Intervention; and the LOGIQ e Exp, LOGIQ e Pro and LOGIQ e Vet.
