Calculation of service times
• The service times are calculated with the following values:
— Pulse amplitude: 2.8 V
— Pulse width: 0.4 ms
— Pacing impedance: 500 
— Basic rate: 60 ppm
• Pacing site:
— Triple-chamber devices: RV
— Dual-chamber devices: RV and A
— Triple-chamber devices: RV, LV and A
Note: Devices in the Lumaxfamily should be implanted within 16 months between the
date of manufacture and the use by date as specified on the package.
• If the ICD is implanted shortly before the use by date, the expected service time
may be reduced by up to 15 months.
• Please note that four capacitor reformings are carried out per year. Therefore
you have to account for at least 4 shocks per year, even if less than 4 have been
delivered (see the following charts of service times).
