• The CONMED 1000SES TM Filters are com-
pletely disposable. Please handle these dispos-
able filters according to your local codes or
regulations and hospital policy. These filters
may be disposed of or incinerated, whichever
is appropriate for your institution.
• The CONMED 1000SES TM Filter should be
changed according to the life of the filter. The
CONMED 1000SES
TM Filter, used with the
CONMED 1000SES TM , should not be used
for more than 8 hours. Failure to change the
filter may result in decreased efficiency and
contamination of the electric motor, vacuum
pump, and sound absorbing media within the
unit.
• If fluid is expected to be aspirated by the
CONMED 1000SES
TM Filter, fluid collection
devices must be installed with the vacuum
hose assembly. Failure to install a fluid collec-
tion device could cause filter blockage and
electrical damage.

CAUTIONS:
• Do not block either the tubing or the filter.

restricted, the motor/blower may overheat and
cause the unit to fail.

plied by CONMED may cause damage to the

hoses, adapters and suction canisters. Failure
to follow the procedures outlined in this
manual may result in overheating of the motor
and may void the unit warranty.
• When using a Suction Canister set up, do
not increase the vacuum setting to more than
50%. Failure to observe this maximum may
result in overheating of the motor and system
failure.

in the presence of flammable
anesthetics.
