Connect the alimentation cable supplied with the suction unit in the rear side.
Connect the same cable to the electricity network 230 V AC.
Operate on the switch on control panel to start the aspiration.
Follow carefully the instructions for tubes connections and insertion of filter described in the
following page.
DESCRIPTION OF CONNECTIONS:
Important for a correct use of the device and to preserve the device to wire the external tubes of the suction
unit following the indications.
Connect the tubes as described:
1. Fix the tube (A) to the tube connector of
aspiration (B)
2. Insert the hydrophobic filter on the free side of
the tube (A)
3. Fix the tube(C) to the free extremity of the
filter (F)
4. Fix the tube (C) to the entering connection of
the pot (E) (vacuum), characterized by the
presence of a float to close the aspiration
with full pot. This safety system allows to
protect the filter from liquids (F).
5. Connect the tube (D) to the free connection
(G) (patient) of the collection pot.
6. The final part (i.e. catheter) is connected to
the tube (D) trough a connection (NOT
INCLUDED)
IMP: the filter has to be mounted in vertical position above the connection of aspiration (vacuum)
FILTER
The filter has a great importance, it is protected from the liquids coming from the pot by a safety valve, but
not from foam and steam that has to keep.
For this reason we suggest to replace it frequently and check its functionality.
•
Switch on the suction unit with free flow and check that vacuum-meter doesn't move from ~0 if the
degree of vacuum increases, the filter should be replaced
•
A fall of the aspiration could indicate the necessity to replace the filter.
•
TO REVERSE THE WORKING OF THE FILTER CAUSES POLLUTION AND ENDANGERS THE
FUNCTIONING OF THE SUCTION UNIT
•
RESPECT THE CONNECTION OF TUBES, FILTERS AND TUBECONNECTOR
VACUUM REGULATOR
A knob on the control board allows to adjust the max. vacuum level applied to the patient.
To check the correct working of the pump and of the vacuum regulator:
Close the ending part and take the regulator to the highest degree of vacuum.
-
Read the value on the vacuum indicator ( ~ -0.79 bar )
-
Turn the regulator and check the correspondence of the values indicated by the index of the hand-
-
grip and by the vacuum-meter.
-
What is above mentioned refers to an efficient circuit.
