Built by Texua, the JC01-100W is a dual-frequency therapeutic ultrasound console aimed at hands-on treatment rooms. The machine power is rated at 100 watts. Frequency is selectable at 1 or 3 MHz, effective intensity reaches 3 watts per square centimetre, energy control runs from 1 to 20, and the duty cycle spans 20 to 80 per cent with automatic and continuous switching. The beam type is collimating with a non-uniformity coefficient of 6, the radiating figure is 4.5, and the applicator surface temperature is not to exceed 45 degrees. The console carries an eight-inch screen, measures 370 by 285 by 320 mm and weighs 3.8 kg, on 220 V at 50 Hz or 110 V at 60 Hz.

What that specification doesn't show is staffing. An EA clinician delivers every minute of a therapeutic ultrasound treatment by hand. The clinician stands at the couch, keeps the applicator moving at an even pace, and cannot step away to start anything else. Protocols in the literature commonly run around ten minutes per site, at a few centimetres per second, covering roughly twice the radiating area.

The non-uniformity coefficient makes that continuous movement obligatory rather than good practice. At 6, peak intensity within the beam is around six times the average across the radiating area, so a head left resting concentrates energy into a small volume. Combined with an intensity ceiling of three watts per square centimetre, the international maximum for therapy machines, the technique is a safety control.

Medigear.uk lists the JC01-100W for UK business buyers. Before ordering, request what separates the two published power figures, the radiating area with units, the calibration interval, and the device class with its declaration of conformity from the seller.

Staffing is the first thing to work out with this console, ahead of where it sits or what it plugs into. Therapeutic ultrasound occupies a clinician and a couch for the entire treatment, with no step where the operator can walk away. A department adding it to a musculoskeletal list is adding appointment slots, not just equipment, and it should do that arithmetic before ordering rather than discovering it in the first week.

What the time buys depends on the frequency selected. At three megahertz the energy is absorbed within the first centimetre or two, which suits trigger points, shallow calcific deposits, superficial tendon and scar work. At one megahertz the same console reaches three to five centimetres in, where larger muscle groups sit. Pulsing towards the lower end of the duty cycle range reduces heating for acute presentations, while continuous output drives the thermal effect in chronic ones.

The treated field stays small in either case. The radiating area of the head governs the area, and the usual approach covers roughly twice that figure, so a region of any size takes either a longer session or more than one field. Swelling and soft-tissue presentations that spread across a limb need planning on that basis.

Against all of it sits the guidance. Ultrasound is advised against in low back pain, sciatica, and osteoarthritis, with a 2025 rotator cuff guideline agreeing. Procurement runs through trust services, private clinics, podiatry groups, and teaching institutions under their own rules, with a Class IIa or IIb device clearing clinical governance alongside finance, and adverse incidents reported to the MHRA via Yellow Card.

Two frequencies without changing the machine

One and three megahertz on the same console means the depth question is answered per patient. A clinician working a mixed list can treat a shallow insertion and a deeper muscle belly in consecutive slots without the equipment compromising either.

Twenty steps across the intensity range

A twenty-point scale gives finer resolution than a shorter one, which matters when the top of the range coincides with the regulatory maximum and most protocols sit well below it. Working up to a patient's tolerance is a smaller adjustment each time.

The full permitted intensity is available.

Effective intensity reaches three watts per square centimetre, the highest levels therapy machines may deliver. Protocols specifying the upper part of that range at one megahertz are within the console's capability, not beyond it.

Duty cycle covering acute and chronic work

Twenty to eighty per cent with automatic and continuous switching puts largely non-thermal pulsing and continuous thermal output on the same unit, so the mode follows the presentation rather than the hardware.

A published beam non-uniformity coefficient

Putting a figure on beam evenness turns technique from habit into instruction. At 6, the peak runs around six times the average, which tells an operator exactly why the sweep rate in a protocol is there.

A stated applicator temperature limit

Not exceeding 45 degrees at the surface resting against skin is a boundary an operator can hold the equipment to, on the part of the device in contact for the entire treatment.

Dual rated voltage

Rated voltage covers 220 V at 50 Hz and 110 V at 60 Hz, which widens where a unit can be redeployed across a group, provided the variant supplied is confirmed at order.

Everything unresolved is answerable on paper.r

What the hundred-watt rating drives, the radiating area with units, what the depth figure measures, the energy scale mapped to intensity, the calibration interval, and the class with its certificate. All of it already exists in the manufacturer's file.

Machine power: 100 W

Published as mains input. A second rating of 50 W appears on the same sheet, with no other entry separating the two.

Dual operating frequency

Selectable at 1 MHz and 3 MHz. The lower setting penetrates deeper into tissue; the higher setting is absorbed closer to the surface.

Effective intensity to 3 W/cm²

The published maximum, which equals the international ceiling for therapy machines. There is no margin above it.

Energy scale 1 to 20

Twenty steps across the output range. Nothing maps those steps onto watts per square centimetre, and the relationship may not hold across both frequencies.

Duty cycle 20 to 80 per cent

Adjustable across that span, with switch modes given as automatic and continuous. Neither the pulse ratios nor the timer range appears.

Beam non-uniformity coefficient 6

Peak intensity against the average across the radiating area. Three to seven is the generally accepted span; above eight is treated as unsafe, and the figure dictates how the head must be moved.

Collimation beam type

The beam carries that label with no profile, divergence figure or measurement method attached.

Radiating figure 4.5

Written as "4.5 centimetres". The quantity is an area in square centimetres, and effective intensity is derived by dividing acoustic power by it, so the units need settling.

Maximum penetration depth given as 18 cm

Published as a maximum. Half-value depth at one megahertz is commonly put at three to four centimetres, so the figure's meaning needs establishing.

Applicator surface temperature not exceeding 45 °C

An upper limit for the part in skin contact throughout treatment. The measurement condition and duration are not given.

Eight-inch screen

The controls sit on an eight-inch screen. Resolution, stored protocols, languages and any session record function are undescribed.

Console dimensions 370 × 285 × 320 mm

Published with a net mass of 3.8 kg, which is unusually light across that volume for powered electronics.

Packed dimensions 465 × 380 × 375 mm

Packed size: 6.8 kg, with a shipping volume of roughly 0.066 cubic metres.

Applicators, calibration and marking not published

No applicator count, head sizes, or indication of whether both frequencies share one head; no coupling gel provision; no calibration interval; no device class; no marking; no Approved Body number; no MHRA registration; and no UK Responsible Person.

The output specification here is full, and the capability it describes is real: two frequencies, twenty steps, a duty cycle spanning acute and chronic work, and intensity to the permitted maximum. What no specification sheet shows is that every minute of every treatment is delivered by a clinician standing at the couch with the head in motion, over a field roughly twice the size of the radiating area. That is the figure a department needs alongside the technical one, particularly when guidance advises against the modality for two of the commonest presentations a musculoskeletal service sees. Medigear.uk lists the JC01-100W for UK business buyers and can arrange delivery, installation, commissioning, familiarisation and service cover. Request the hundred-watt rating, the radiating area (with units), the calibration interval, and the device class from the seller in the quotation.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

All of it, for the length of the session. Therapeutic ultrasound is delivered by hand from start to finish, so the clinician is occupied for every minute and the couch is occupied with them. Protocols in the published literature commonly specify around ten minutes per site, and a service treating two sites is looking at a full appointment slot before assessment or anything else in the plan. When a department is costing a new modality in staffing terms rather than equipment terms, that number matters, and it does not appear on any specification sheet.

No, and the beam specification is the reason. A non-uniformity coefficient of 6 means the strongest part of the field carries around six times the average intensity across the radiating area. Held still, that peak sits on one patch of tissue for the whole exposure. Continuous movement spreads it, which is why every protocol specifies a sweep rate and a duration. An unattended treatment is not a slower version of the same thing; it is a different and worse exposure. Plan the rota on the basis that one machine occupies one clinician.

Less than people expect, which is the other half of the time question. The radiating area of the head sets the treated area, and a common rule of thumb works over roughly twice that figure. If the radiating area is four and a half square centimetres, a single treatment field is around nine or ten square centimetres, which is a patch the size of a large postage stamp. Larger regions need either a longer session, a second field, or a decision that a different modality suits better. Confirm the radiating area with units before planning any of that.

Nothing published. The sheet carries two machine power figures and separates them by no other entry, down to a shared mass and a shared set of dimensions. Machine power in any case describes mains draw rather than what the applicator delivers, and the figures that govern delivery, intensity and radiating area are published independently and do not move between the two. Ask what the higher rating drives, whether it changes anything the patient experiences, and whether the two builds differ physically at all.

Because it is the maximum therapy machines are permitted to deliver, not a point below it. A console reaching the ceiling has nothing in hand if the head begins delivering more than it displays, and therapy heads do drift. Surveys of machines in clinical service have repeatedly found large proportions outside tolerance, with figures approaching seventy per cent reported by work linked to the UK national measurement laboratory, and over-delivering devices associated with skin burns. Get a calibration arrangement in place before first use, and ask what the manufacturer specifies as an interval.

Not as a depth where useful treatment arrives. At one megahertz the half-value depth is commonly put at three to four centimetres, which leaves around a quarter of the surface energy by eight centimetres and very little past that. Three megahertz is absorbed far sooner. Eighteen centimetres sits outside anything the standard dose tables support, and the figure may describe a depth at which pressure is still detectable rather than one that treats. Ask what was measured, how, and against what threshold before the number supports any indication.

It needs correcting, and it is not a trivial correction. The quantity is an area in square centimetres, defined in the measurement standard for physiotherapy ultrasound as the smallest area through which three quarters of the acoustic power passes. Effective intensity is acoustic power divided by that area, so the intensity figure on this sheet depends on it. A length of four and a half centimetres is not a radiating area. Ask for the value with its units, the measurement method, and whether it differs between the two frequencies.

Not obviously. The published console measures 370 by 285 by 320 mm, enclosing roughly thirty-four litres, and the net mass is 3.8 kg. That works out to near a tenth of a gram per cubic centimetre, which is very light for a mains-powered unit containing a transformer, a display and control electronics. Either the depth figure takes in something largely hollow, such as an applicator cradle, or one of the two numbers wants revisiting. Ask for a dimensioned drawing before bench or trolley space is allocated.

Enough to settle the indication list before an order goes in. NICE advises against offering ultrasound for low back pain with or without sciatica, and the 2022 osteoarthritis guidance likewise recommends against it, naming therapeutic exercise as the core treatment. Cochrane reviewed chronic low back pain and found the current evidence does not support its use, and a 2025 rotator cuff tendinopathy guideline agrees. Weaker and mixed signals remain for myofascial pain, calcific tendinitis and knee osteoarthritis. Given the staffing a session consumes, that list is worth writing down.

Any service that cannot free a clinician for the whole of every treatment, because this modality has no unattended mode. Any department whose caseload is mainly low back pain or osteoarthritis, given the guidance. Anyone without a calibration arrangement, on a console specified to the intensity ceiling. And any buyer choosing between the two published power ratings without knowing what separates them. For a service with staffing, a defined indication list, and calibration in hand, two frequencies on one console cover a genuine range of depths.
