Lavage Flow Adjustment
Holding open end of handpiece upright, lavage can be increased by holding the handpiece and gently twisting the blue lavage
adjustment knob clockwise. The rate of flow through the Handpiece determines the temperature of the lavage. Low flow rates
produce warmer temperatures, high flow rates produce cooler temperatures.

7.2 Water Line Requirements
• Incoming water supply line pressure to the ultrasonic scaler
must be 25 psi (172kPa) minimum to 60 psi (414 kPa)
maximum. If your dental water system's supply line pressure
is above 60 psi, install a water pressure regulator on the
water supply line to your Ultrasonic Scaler.
• Incoming water temperature to the Cavitron System should
not exceed 25˚C (77˚F). If needed device should be installed
to maintain a temperature within this specification, or a
Cavitron DualSelect Dispensing System attached to allow
this system to be operated as a closed water system.
• A manual shut-off valve on the dental water system supply
line should be used so that the water can be completely shut-
off when the office is unoccupied.
• A filter in the dental water system supply line is
recommended so that the particles in the water supply will be
trapped before reaching the ultrasonic scaler.
• After the above installations are complete on the dental
water supply system, the dental office water line should
be thoroughly flushed prior to connection to the ultrasonic
system.
• After flushing system, verify there are no leaks.

the Power Control Knob located on the
treatment unit head that has been installed by
your service technician. Stickers have been
provided for application to the treatment unit
to denote the Cavitron Ultrasonic Scaler power
range (see image). These stickers are not required and
may or may not have been applied by your technician. If
they have not been applied or left behind by the technician
and you would like to apply them to your treatment unit,
contact DENTSPLY Customer Service to order them.
Option 2: If you are using a treatment unit equipped with
a touch pad, your service technician will wire the power
adjustment to the appropriate buttons on the treatment unit.
Power can be adjusted using these buttons.
Lavage Flow Adjustment
Water flow through the handpiece is adjusted by rotating a
control element on the cable connector (blue).
