SERVOX ® digital XL instruction manual
4 Description
The SERVOX ® digital XL consists of the SERVOX ® digital XL speech aid (Art. No. 37270) and the accessories described in the scope of delivery.
The SERVOX speech aid is an electrically operated handset made of plastic, with a sleeve made of titanium. The SERVOX
®
screwed onto the upper end of the speech aid contains a transducer and a diaphragm for transmitting vibrations.
Activated by pressing a button, this transducer vibrates to produce a sound. If the speech aid is pressed with the screw cap onto one of the
application points on the cheek, base of the mouth or neck, this sound is transmitted through the tissue into the mouth/throat and can be
formed with speaking movements of the lips, tongue and used for speaking. Volume and sound can be adjusted via a volume control and by
turning the screw cap. The speech aid can be operated either with AAA rechargeable batteries or with AAA batteries.
Patients who have lost their vocal cords or cannot use them due to injury, illness or surgical removal of the larynx (laryngectomy) can use the
sounds produced by the SERVOX ® digital XL speech aid to speak.
