Compact monopolar and bipolar electrosurgery for outpatient procedures
The Bovie Specialist PRO A1250S is a 120-watt electrosurgical generator designed for physician offices, outpatient facilities, specialty practices, procedure rooms, and other clinical environments requiring monopolar and bipolar electrosurgical capability.
The generator provides five energy-delivery modes: Cut, Blend, Coagulation, Fulguration, and Bipolar. Its compact design delivers the functionality of a larger operating-room generator in a lower-powered platform suited to office-based and specialty procedures.
The A1250S must be operated only by qualified medical professionals trained in the electrosurgical technique and procedure being performed.
Five electrosurgical operating modes
The Bovie Specialist PRO provides the following maximum output levels:
- Cut: 120 watts
- Blend: 90 watts
- Coagulation: 80 watts
- Fulguration: 40 watts
- Bipolar: 30 watts
These modes allow clinicians to select an appropriate energy-delivery method for monopolar cutting, blended cutting, coagulation, fulguration, and bipolar coagulation procedures.
Power settings and operating modes must be selected according to the procedure, connected accessories, patient requirements, and the instructions provided in the manufacturer’s user guide.
Monopolar and bipolar capability
The A1250S supports both monopolar and bipolar electrosurgical procedures.
Monopolar operation uses a compatible electrosurgical pencil or electrode together with an appropriate patient return electrode. Bipolar operation uses compatible bipolar forceps and accessories connected according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Bipolar forceps, bipolar cables, footswitches, and specialized electrodes are available separately unless specifically included in the final configuration.
Neutral Electrode Monitoring
Bovie NEM Neutral Electrode Monitoring technology monitors compatible split return electrodes during monopolar procedures.
The system is designed to identify return-electrode conditions that require attention and supports proper patient-return-electrode use. Clinical staff must still inspect the patient, cables, accessories, return electrode, and generator before every procedure.
Digital Error Detection
Bovie DED Digital Error Detection continuously monitors generator functions and alerts the operator when the system detects an operating condition requiring attention.
The generator also includes self-test circuits, audible tones, isolated circuitry, and illuminated digital displays to support setup and operation.
Clear digital controls
Large illuminated displays allow clinicians to view selected power settings, while raised push-button controls support rapid power adjustment.
Separate controls and indicators help distinguish the selected operating mode and output level. Audible activation tones provide an additional indication when electrosurgical energy is being delivered.
Compact clinical footprint
The A1250S measures approximately:
- 6 inches high
- 10.25 inches wide
- 12 inches deep
- Less than 14 lb
Its compact dimensions allow it to be positioned on a procedure cart, equipment stand, countertop, or compatible mobile stand without requiring the space associated with a full-size operating-room generator.
Universal electrical compatibility
The generator supports:
- Input voltage: 100–240 VAC
- Line frequency: 50–60 Hz
- Output frequency: 350–600 kHz
The appropriate hospital-grade power cord and electrical configuration must be used for the installation location.
Electrosurgical accessories
The manufacturer’s standard A1250S package lists a disposable push-button electrosurgical pencil, blade electrode, needle electrode, ball electrode, disposable split return electrodes, reusable grounding cords, power cords, and user documentation.
Final supplied contents are confirmed in the quotation.
Additional compatible accessories include:
- Monopolar footswitch
- Footswitch adapter
- Bipolar forceps and cables
- Additional disposable electrodes
- Dermal electrodes
- Loop electrodes
- Extended ball electrodes
- Reusable electrosurgical pencils

Surgical smoke management
Electrosurgical procedures may generate surgical smoke.
A compatible smoke-evacuation system can be added separately to capture smoke near the source during applicable procedures. The smoke evacuator, tubing, filters, and related accessories are not included with the standard generator unless specified in the final quotation.
