Applied part types

The control unit recognizes the different types of applied parts (motors and
handpieces). These are shown in the display as a combination of symbol
and text. The size and display depend on which socket the applied part is
connected to and whether the applied part is active or locked.
4.3.5

Identification of control elements on system components

Control elements on the system components of the ELAN 4 electro motor
system are labeled with a gold marking.
4.3.6

Recognition of connected motor cable and applied part

The settings (upper speed limit, pump status and delivery volume) last
selected with this application part type on this bushing are retrieved upon
inserting the same application part type.
When several different hand/foot controls are connected to the control
unit, they are prioritized in the following order (higher items have priority
over lower):
■
Hand controls GA804/GA805 or drill tool GA844
■
Foot control GA808
■
GA810 wireless foot control
4.3.7

Overload protection

To protect the micro motors in the applied parts against damage from
overheating, the motor temperature is monitored. If the temperature is too
high a warning signal sounds and a thermometer symbol appears in the
display 2.
If the temperature continues to be too high, the applied part is switched
off. The following message appears in the display 2: "The motor currently
being used is overheating. Please let the motor cool down or use another
suitable motor".
After a cooling phase the applied part can be reactivated.
It is recommended to have a second applied part ready at hand.
4.3.8

Coolant and irrigation pump

The control unit is equipped with a coolant and irrigation pump 3.
The pump can be activated either in the corresponding pump control panel
or via the corresponding button on the foot control. It can be started by
activating the motor or via the "Flush" function (continuous flushing). The
delivery rate can only be adjusted via the pump control panel.
