5.3.2 Connecting the Vacuum Tube
WARNING!
Combination of low set pressures and excessive vacuum pressures
When using the Aquilex® Fluid Control System with tissue removal systems, e.g.
MyoSure®, the combination of low set pressures and excessive vacuum pressures
may result in a significant loss of intrauterine distension pressure which has the
potential to affect the visibility of the surgical field. Conversely, when employing a
high distension pressure, the deactivation of the tissue removal system can lead to
pressure peaks that can exceed 150 mmHg.
Connect vacuum tube with hygiene filter to suction containers. The vacuum tube
with hygiene filter must be replaced when dirty and after 30 days at the latest. The
vacuum tube with hygiene filter should not be cleaned.
Connection for low vacuum (white)
• Connect vacuum tube with white connector to low vacuum port (white) (1)
Fig. Low vacuum tube [} 30]. This vacuum pump has a fixed vacuum pressure
(~225 mmHg).
• Use the connecting tube ((5) Fig. Low vacuum tube [} 30]) when two con-
tainers are serially connected to the same vacuum port.

Connection for high vacuum (green)
• Connect vacuum tube set with the green connectors to the high vacuum port
(green) (8) in Fig. High vacuum tube [} 31]. This vacuum can be adjusted to a
maximum 500 mmHg using adjustment controller.
• Use the connecting tube ((12) Fig. High vacuum tube [} 31]) when two con-
tainers are serially connected to the same vacuum port.
