1.2 Special signs on device
The inscriptions on the reusable collecting container lid show the direction of the hose connections. Use the tip with the text “VACUUM” on
the connection between the collecting vessel and the device, and the tip with the text “PATIENT” on the hose connection to the patient. In case
of reverse connection, since the anti-overfill device will not work, secretions may enter the suction pump and damage it. To prevent the risk of
infection, the bacteria filter between the device and the sump connection must be renewed or sterilized after each use.
Capacity Indicator
Warning symbol on the capacity indicator warns against the risk of over-discharging the battery pack can be damaged. You must charge
the LIFETIME SA-PB before the red warning LED lights up or when this LED lights up at the latest. In case of not charging and continuing to
use, the device will stop automatically when the battery level becomes insufficient and will give audible and visual warning for 6 seconds.
2. Product Descriptions
2.1 Intended Use
LIFETIME SA-PB is a mobile, portable, electrically operated medical suction pump used temporarily in adults, children and infants:
To aspirate blood, secretion and food particles from the oral cavity, nasal-pharyngeal region and bronchial system
If LIFETIME SA-PB is used in accordance with the rules to evacuate vacuum stretchers and vacuum splints, the danger of
respiratory arrest can be prevented by removing obstruction in the airways. This device can be used inside buildings,
outdoors and during transport.
LIFETIME SA-PB vacuum aspirator will not be used in the following areas:
In medical condition requiring a potential balancing (for instance: cardiac surgery)
In places where explosion danger is available
For drainages in low vacuum intervals (for instance: wound drainages or thoracic drainages)
2.2 Functional Descriptions
An electrical pump with piston gives the vacuum pressure required for aspiration. The device can be optionally functioned with mounted
rechargeable batteries or connected to an external direct current source of 12.0 - 13.8 V. With a vacuum setting unit, it is possible to select a
vacuum power between –100 mmHg and -650 mmHg. Keypad is illumminated to be used in dark environment.
Information
When the vacuum pressure you have chosen is reached, the device switches to a constant speed. When the vacuum
pressure changes, the pump adjusts the speed again to create the vacuum pressure selected.
LIFETIME SA-PB reduces energy consumption by reducing performance when it reaches the required vacuum power.
