Papimi : Ion Induction Therapy

The papimi DELTA creates high intensity electromagnetic impulses by discharging capacitors via a plasma chamber. A high voltage of 40 kV and peak currents of about 10 kA result in an energy output of 96 J. A pulsed magnetic field is thus emitted with intensity in the range of 48-110 mT in the vicinity of the applicator coil.

Each impulse lasts about 50 μs and comprises high-frequency spikes on a continuous spectrum in the kHz to MHz range, with the peak intensity at 150-250 kHz. The device features a user-selected pulse rate from 1 to 8 Hz, or can be operated at a variable pulse rate.

Pulses induce weak electric currents deep in the tissues (eddy currents), of the same frequencies, affecting cell energy and membrane potential – this whole process works athermally and can be carried out while patients are clothed.
