With its logical and intuitive interface, the VIO 3 is designed to ensure optimal userfriendliness 1. The size of the touchscreen display alone speaks for itself: from the operating field, the surgeon always has a clear view of all control elements. As your stepGUIDE, VIO 3 provides guidance by suggesting experienced starting settings used in various clinical applications. This results in less setting adjustment or modifications.
Program selection
Rapid acess to the required program using the guided navigation of stepGUIDE.
Recommended connection
Based on pre-programmed settings the stepGUIDE supports you in selecting a socket for your chosen instrument.
Slot assignment
The active slot and the instrument in use are shown on the display and through the illuminated socket frame.
Accessory assignment
Foot pedal, AUTO STOP and AUTO START assignment using drag and drop.

Multi-modality modes for various clinical specialities
VIO 3 has the right mode for your application, supporting monopolar and bipolar techniques and our proprietary hybrid technology – a combination of different technology.
19 OPTIMIZED MODES
The right modes for your application adapted to your instrument selection
PRECISE EFFECT SETTINGS
Adjusting the selected mode has never been easier via the effect setting
HIGH REPRODUCIBILITY
Advanced measurement technology, Consistent cutting and coagulation effects
HOMOGENOUS TISSUE EFFECTS
VIO 3 responds to parameter changes in the tissue immediately regardless of the electrode shape or incision technique
Dynamic adjustment of the modulation frequency makes this new mode ideally suited for exposing structures. preciseSECT facilitates rapid and effective coagulation with limited tissue-separating properties, in combination with less development of smoke and carbonization2.
Disciplines: general / visceral surgery, gynecology, urology
With the new AUTOSTART, thermoSEAL is twice as fast as the BiClamp mode3. And this mode permanently measures the tissue parameters while sparing lateral tissue. This makes thermoSEAL ideal for sealing tissue bundles and vessels using our instruments as well as for coagulating bleedings extremely efficiently.
Disciplines: general / visceral surgery, gynecology, urology
highCUT bipolar
Bipolar resection
This new mode has been optimized for bipolar resection in a saline solution. The power peak system (PPS) enables rapid incision. The stable plasma facilitates rapid cutting5.
Instruments: bipolar resectoscopes
softCOAG
Accelerated coagulation
Now with QuickStart5: in the case of bipolar and monopolar softCOAG, a short pulse of energy on contact with tissue results in accelerated coagulation.
Application: coagulation for laparoscopic procedures
VIO® 3 Product trailer
The future of electrosurgery has begun. VIO 3 is progress - a device which changes standards.
Expanded choice in instrument selection
Use up to 6 instruments of your choice (including APC) in accordance with your procedure. The connection options offered by VIO 3 support a larger number instrument combination.
Connection options
When using APC 3, you can extend your options and insert up to 6 instruments of your choice.
Expanded instrument selection
4 monopolar, 4 bipolar, 4 plug & play instruments (e.g. BiClamp) or any combination thereof.
Universal socket5
Standard instruments can be inserted into any universal socket.
Easy socket exchange
Sockets can easily be replaced without opening the casing.
High-tech and safety are our passion.
We have been a pioneer in the development of electrosurgery for over 90 years, gathering experience you can count on.

All APC modes are integrated into the VIO® 3
pulsedAPC® and forcedAPC are performed using an even finer, 100-increment effect setting for preciselyadjustable devitalization. The preciseAPC® mode is used for hemostasis, particularly in the low-energy range and for sensitive structures to facilitate coagulation with minimal penetration.
