*Note: Compression also signifies the relaxation time with respect to active time. Exam.:Comp.=100,000 also means that the relaxation time is 100,000 bigger than the active time.
The compression ratio also corresponds to the crest factor known for the Electrosurgical Diathermies in the coagulation mode with typical values 5 to 10.
