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.

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.
