Description
What it is
- Type/Name: Single Diode Laser Applicator (sometimes listed as “single applicator” or “single laser diode”)
- Emitter layout: 1 true laser diode only — no LED or SLD elements in this head.
- Intended use: localized photobiomodulation/low-level laser therapy where you want a precise spot rather than broad area coverage.
Core technical features
- Wavelength: 850nm infrared (IR).
- IR at this band is used for deeper tissue penetration vs visible red light.
- Output power: 200mW total (0.2 W).
- Configuration family: one of three Chattanooga single-diode options:
- 27840: 850 nm, 100mW
- 27841: 850 nm, 200mW (shown)
- 27805: 820 nm, 300mW
What the head enables on the base unit (day-to-day “features”)
The applicator is hardware; the base unit controls dosing and modes. With 27841 attached, compatible Chattanooga systems provide:
- Independent control of all parameters (time, dose, mode).
- Energy display in Joules or J/cm² (so dosing is trackable/repeatable).
- Continuous and pulsed treatment modes.
- Fully variable pulse frequencies.
- Real-time feedback of energy delivered.
- Preset clinical indications tied to this applicator.
- User-defined protocol slots to save custom settings.
- Easy connection to Vectra Genisys/Genisys-family electrotherapy combo units with laser module.
Compatibility
- Designed for Chattanooga laser systems such as Vectra Genisys / Genisys TranSport and also listed as compatible with Vectra Neo units that have the laser module.
When you’d use 27841 vs other heads
- 27841 single diode (200mW): best for small, focused targets (trigger points, tendon insertions, tight joint lines).
- More power than 27840, so faster dosing for the same small area.
- Cluster heads (27811/27812/27808): designed for larger areas and faster coverage via multiple emitters.
