Texua JC03-30W

Rooms where somebody other than the clinician is looking at the machine are where the panel pays for itself. Teaching departments running students through a treatment, services where an assistant or rehabilitation technician works alongside, and any appointment with a patient who wants to understand what is being done to them rather than receive it.

That last group is larger than it sounds. A treatment that involves a head moving slowly over a painful area for several minutes invites the question of how much longer and how strong it is. Being able to point to the answer changes the tenor of the session, and an anxious patient who can watch the count descend is generally easier to treat.

What the panel does not alter is reach. Three megahertz places the energy in the first centimetre or two, which suits trigger points, superficial tendon, shallow calcific deposits, scar tissue and ankle or wrist presentations close to the surface. Deeper muscle bellies sit outside it, and no console setting changes that.

The indication list sits above all of it. Guidance advises against ultrasound for low back pain, sciatica, and osteoarthritis, and a 2025 rotator cuff tendinopathy guideline agrees, so what a service treats should be settled regardless of how legible the display is. Procurement runs through trust services, private practices and teaching institutions under their own rules. Conformity paperwork reaches the buyer from the manufacturer through the seller, and adverse incidents are reported to the MHRA via the Yellow Card scheme.

A 10.4-inch panel

The largest published entry on the sheet, and the reason to consider this console. Screen area determines whether a patient two feet away or a student across the room can read what is being delivered. On a machine used in front of other people, that is a working consideration rather than a cosmetic one.

The patient can follow the treatment.

Intensity and time remaining visible to the person receiving them removes most of the questions a long session generates. For anxious or first-time patients, watching the count go down is more reassuring than being told it is nearly finished.

Legible from a teaching position

A student or assistant standing back can see the settings without leaning over the couch. On a teaching list, that means a demonstration works for more than one observer, and the clinician keeps both hands where they should be.

Two point six kilograms

A console in that band lifts onto a bench, moves between rooms and goes in a car without a second person. On a service that runs ultrasound in whichever room is free, weight decides whether the machine travels or the patient does.

Duty cycle across acute and chronic work

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

A published beam non-uniformity coefficient

Stating the ratio of peak to average intensity turns sweep technique into an instruction rather than a habit. At 6, it sits inside the accepted band and explains exactly why protocols specify a rate of movement.

An applicator temperature ceiling

Not exceeding 45 degrees at the surface in skin contact is a stated bound on the part of the device a patient feels throughout, and one an operator can hold the equipment to.

Every gap is closable in writing

What the panel runs, the radiating area with units, the depth measurement method, the calibration interval, what separates the two power ratings, and the class with its certificate. All of this already exists in the manufacturer's file.

10.4-inch panel

The display is listed as 10.4 inches, the largest single entry in the specifications. What runs on it — protocols, body maps, languages, any record function — is not described.

Three megahertz operating frequency

Operation is fixed at 3 MHz. Tissue absorbs this quickly, so treatment reaches a centimetre or two. No second frequency is offered.

Effective intensity to 1 W/cm²

One watt per square centimetre is the published maximum. Therapy machines are permitted up to three, so the upper part of that range is not available here.

Energy scale 1 to 10

Ten selectable steps, with no published conversion from a step to an intensity in watts per square centimetre.

Duty cycle 20 to 80 per cent

Adjustable across the full span, switching described as automatic and continuous. Pulse ratios and timer range are both absent.

Beam non-uniformity coefficient 6

Peak intensity measured against the average across the radiating area. Three to seven is the accepted span; eight is the unsafe threshold.

Collimation beam type

Named as a type, with no profile, divergence figure or account of the measurement behind it.

Radiating figure 4.5

Written as "4.5 centimetres" for a quantity belonging in square centimetres. Intensity is calculated from it, so the slip isn't contained.

Maximum penetration depth given as 12 cm

Offered as a maximum. Half the energy at three megahertz is absorbed within one to two and a half centimetres, which leaves twelve requiring an explanation.

Applicator surface temperature not exceeding 45 °C

A limit on the surface resting against skin for the length of a session, quoted without measurement conditions or duration.

Console dimensions 370 × 285 × 320 mm

Published with a net mass of 2.6 kg. That volume against that mass is unusually light for a mains device with a display and a transformer.

Packed dimensions 556 × 462 × 290 mm

Packed at 5.6 kg and roughly 0.074 cubic metres, so the packaging outweighs the console and takes about twice its volume.

Two machine power figures

Given as 30 W and 60 W, both mains input. Nothing else on the sheet separates them.

Calibration, applicators and marking not published

No verification interval, applicator count or head sizes, coupling gel provision, cleaning products, device class, marking, Approved Body number, MHRA registration, or UK Responsible Person.

Every sheet is a set of decisions, and this one put effort into the display. A 10.4-inch panel on a 2.6-kilogram console is a real advantage in a room where the patient or a student is watching, and it says nothing about what reaches the tissue. The output side is the plain configuration: one frequency, a ten-step scale, and an intensity maximum comfortably below the permitted ceiling. Read as a superficial-work machine with an unusually good interface, it makes sense. Read as a general-purpose console, it will disappoint, because no setting extends the depth. The radiating area units and the twelve centimetre depth both need correcting either way. Medigear.uk lists the JC03-30W for UK business buyers and can arrange delivery, installation, commissioning, familiarisation and service cover.
