Ionyx Locapex Five Apex Locator

The company Ionyx was established in 1993 and located in France. The company dedicates itself to engineer specialised machines for endodontics. Ionyx Locapex Five is an autonomous Apex Locator with a cutting-edge technology. No calibration is needed for Locapex Five and it is very comfortable as well as simple to use. It operates in all root canal conditions which includes all wet conditions too. In an environment where hypochlorite is less than 2.5%, also sodium chloride, water, saliva and even blood.

To make it more comfortable, it has a large display featuring colour LEDs which indicates the file progression in the canal, towards the apex. An error signal comes on in case of wrong measurement. It has a battery level indicator and an automatic stop if the unit is left idle for 5 minutes. 
All accessories (2 cords, 1 grip file, 2 lip electrodes, 1 touch file) are autoclavable at 134°C.
