It would also need, once the questions are answered
- A dehumidifier, or a sealed and conditioned room.
- A voltage stabiliser
- A handover packet in French, built from the manufacturer's manual.
Answer these and the screening sharpens
- What supply frequency is the device rated for? The nameplate prints it in Hz, next to the voltage.
- What voltage range is the device rated for? A nameplate reading 100-240 V means it handles both grids.
- Is there a supplier for coupling gel (Edan P/N 11.57.14019), 2 x AA batteries (alkaline LR6 1.5 V or NiMH 1.2 V, can be bought locally) in Haiti?
- Can spare parts for Edan Instruments SONOTRAX Basic A be bought in Haiti?
- What year was the device made? The nameplate usually prints it next to the serial number.
- What are Haiti's import and registration rules for donated medical equipment?
- Does anything being sent carry an expiry date - sterile circuits, filters, reagents, batteries? If so, what is the earliest?
