Shave precious seconds off rescue time with the Philips SMART pads III. These electrodes have been streamlined for fast deployment because the time-consuming steps of removing the pads' packaging during the initial stages of rescue response have been eliminated. The FR3 SMART pads III can be used on both adults and children (with the optional Infant/Child key), so there's no time wasted changing pad sets. Offset tabs enable an efficient peel-and-place workflow. When used with a Philips FR3 carrying case equipped with a pads Sentry, SMART pads III can be pre-connected and can therefore be tested during FR3's routine self-tests. The multifunction SMART pads III connector is compatible with Philips HeartStart manual defibrillators and can be used for ECG monitoring, external pacing, and synchronized cardioversion as well as defibrillation.

The Philips FR3 AED primary battery is a lithium manganese dioxide disposable battery with a 5-year shelf life. It is typically good for 300 shocks, or 12 hours of monitoring time.
