1000 cc collection pot 3ΑC286
The 1000 cc collection pot provided with the aspirator can be used in two ways. as sterilisable collection pot, or as collection pot with single use bag.
Do not turn over the pot while it is connected to the device in function, since the liquid would come into contact with the hydro phobic antibacterial filter, immediately blocking suction; in case this happens, empty the pot and replace the antibacterial filter.
The antibacterial filter must be inserted directly in the pot’s lid.
Never use the aspirator without the antibacterial filter, sinceit is very dangerous for the patient.
The collection pot is supplied with overflow valve, lid and pot in a see throughmaterial (polycarbonate). The antibacterial filter must be placed directly in the lid, only on the hole called VACUUM. The antibacterial filter protects the suction circuit from possible contaminants sucked during use. All the components of the pot can be conventionally sterilised in autoclave at a maximum temperature of 121°C, or by boiling them for 10 minutes.
We recommend to replace the whole pot every 30 sterilisation cycles.
Do not turn over the pot dring use to prevent the backflow valve from being activated; if this happens turn off the aspirator and remove the tube connected to the antibacterial filter.
Never use the aspirator without the secretion collection pot and/or without the antibacterial filter.
Connection: connect one end of the short sterilisable silicon tube to the rubber holder of the antibacterial filter and put the latter in the “VACUUM” input of the blue lid, connect the other end to the “INLET” input of the aspirator. Connect one end of the sterilisable silicon tube to the “PATIENT” input of the blue lid; connect the sterile single-use manual regulator to the other end and connect the single-use sterile pipe to the regulator.
The aspirator can be used with the 1000 cc re-usable transparent secretion collection pot and with the single-use bag supplied. In this case the antibacterial filter is integrated in the single-use bag, therefore the antibacterial filter and the blue lid with the valve should not be used. The filter embedded in the bag, also prevents the reflux of the liquids sucked towards the aspirator when it is full, or when it is inadvertently turned over. In this case to restore the device to normal operation, the single-use bag shall be replaced. For the cleaning and disinfecting the vial, sterilize the single parts in autoclave at a maximum temperature of 121°C, or by boiling them for 10 minutes. The bag is single-use and it MUST be replaced after each use. The bag must always fully inserted in the pot to avoid vacuum loss.
