Shortwave Diathermy Accessories

Keep your compatible shortwave diathermy system ready for clinical use with replacement and add-on accessories from Balego. This accessory collection includes capacitive electrodes in multiple sizes, the Diplode, the Monode, and left or right electrode arms for professional shortwave diathermy workflows.

Whether your clinic needs to replace a worn electrode, expand treatment setup options, support capacitive-field treatments, or maintain applicator positioning hardware, this page helps you compare each accessory by size, use case, and clinical workflow.

Shortwave diathermy accessories help clinicians configure, maintain, and adapt compatible diathermy systems for different treatment-area sizes and applicator setups. This product group includes three capacitive electrode sizes, two applicator options, and left/right electrode arms.

The attached accessory chart identifies seven selectable options: Capacitive Electrodes 120 mm, Capacitive Electrodes 165 mm, Capacitive Electrodes 80 mm, Diplode, Monode, Electrode Arm (Left), and Electrode Arm (Right).

Capacitive electrodes are available in three sizes. Choose the size based on the treatment area, patient setup, and compatible system instructions.

How to choose a capacitive electrode size: Choose 80 mm for smaller or more focused treatment-area setup; choose 120 mm for a balanced, mid-size electrode option; choose 165 mm for larger treatment-area coverage; and confirm the selected electrode size matches your system, electrode arm setup, and clinical protocol before use.

The Diplode and Monode are different accessory options used with compatible shortwave diathermy systems. Choose based on your device configuration, clinical workflow, and replacement needs.

Selection tip: If your system was configured with a Monode, choose the Monode replacement. If your workflow or system setup calls for a Diplode, choose the Diplode. When unsure, verify the system model, manual, and accessory compatibility before purchasing.

Electrode arms help position the electrode or applicator during treatment setup. Choose the side that matches your system configuration or the part being replaced.

Selection tip: If replacing an existing arm, match the replacement to the same side. If building out a capacitive-field setup, confirm whether your configuration requires one or both arms.

Shortwave Diathermy Accessories from Balego support professional clinics using compatible diathermy systems for deep tissue heating workflows. This accessory page is organized around practical purchasing needs: electrode size selection, applicator replacement, and electrode arm positioning.

Capacitive electrode options are available in 80 mm, 120 mm, and 165 mm sizes, giving clinicians a choice of smaller, mid-size, or larger electrode footprints. The Diplode and Monode accessories support compatible applicator workflows, while the left and right electrode arms help maintain proper positioning during treatment setup.

For clinics that depend on diathermy as part of their rehabilitation or physical therapy services, having the correct accessories available can help reduce downtime, preserve treatment-room efficiency, and support consistent device setup.

Capacitive Electrodes 80 mm — SKU 020453216. The smallest listed capacitive electrode option. Best suited for workflows where a smaller electrode footprint is preferred: smaller treatment-area setup, focused capacitive-field workflows, clinics needing a compact electrode option, and replacement of matching 80 mm electrodes.

Capacitive Electrodes 120 mm — SKU 020453217. A mid-size option and the default SKU shown on the Balego page. A practical choice for clinics needing a balanced electrode size: general capacitive-field accessory needs, mid-size treatment-area setup, replacement of matching 120 mm electrodes, and clinics wanting a versatile capacitive electrode option.

Capacitive Electrodes 165 mm — SKU 020453218. The largest capacitive electrode option in the chart. Useful when a broader electrode footprint is preferred: larger treatment-area setup, broader capacitive-field coverage, replacement of matching 165 mm electrodes, and clinics wanting multiple electrode sizes available.

Diplode — SKU 020969553. An accessory option for compatible shortwave diathermy systems. Choose this item when replacing a Diplode or adding one for compatible clinical workflows: Diplode replacement, compatible applicator setup, clinics expanding diathermy accessory options, and professional diathermy workflows requiring a Diplode.

Monode — SKU 02200002. A diathermy applicator accessory used with compatible shortwave diathermy systems, commonly associated with inductive-style workflows. May be needed as a replacement or additional applicator: Monode replacement, inductive-style applicator workflows, clinics maintaining SWD100 accessory sets, and backup or additional applicator availability.

Electrode Arm, Left — SKU 14790. Supports compatible applicator or electrode positioning on the left side of the system setup. Choose when replacing a left-side arm or completing a setup that requires left-side support.

Electrode Arm, Right — SKU 14791. Supports compatible applicator or electrode positioning on the right side of the system setup. Choose when replacing a right-side arm or completing a setup that requires right-side support.

Before ordering, confirm your exact shortwave diathermy system model; whether your system uses capacitive electrodes, a Diplode, a Monode, or electrode arms; which electrode size is required (80 mm, 120 mm, or 165 mm); whether you need a left electrode arm, right electrode arm, or both; whether the accessory is a replacement part or an add-on; whether your system requires additional cables, pads, arms, or applicator hardware; and current manufacturer instructions for setup, safety, contraindications, and use.

Shortwave diathermy accessories are intended for use with compatible professional clinical diathermy systems. Use only according to the manufacturer’s instructions, applicable contraindications, facility safety procedures, and qualified clinical judgment.
