Transducers and Intended Applications Refer to the table below for transducers compatible with these ultrasound systems: 

ACUSON S1000 ultrasound system



ACUSON S2000 ultrasound system



ACUSON S3000 ultrasound system

Only the following transducers from Siemens are compatible with your ultrasound system. EMC Note: Operating the transducer in close proximity to sources of strong electromagnetic fields, such as radio transmitter stations or similar installations, may lead to temporary degradation or interference visible on the monitor screen. A lightening of image background may be noticed while visualizing hypoechoic structures, or color spectral interference, or jitter, or horizontal lines in the image screen may occur. The transducer and the system have been designed and tested to withstand such interference and will not be permanently damaged. See also: Electromagnetic Emissions and Immunity: Guidance and Manufacturer's Declaration WARNING: In accordance with Canadian law, the 14L5 SP transducer is not licensed for use with the ACUSON S1000 ultrasound system or the ACUSON S3000 ultrasound system.
