4.0 Cleaning and servicing
4.4.1 General
There is a bacterial filter (Fig. 4.1) at the lid of the
Tra-
cheoport®
which
a) protects the interior of the unit against contaminati-
on,
b) stops the flow of liquids due to its hydrophobic
features.
Together with the mechanical overflow safety this filter
prevents sucking in of secretion into the interior of the
unit, and, due to this, failure of the unit.
Removing the filter:
Remove the filter from the unit and take off the silicone
hose. Dispose of the filter.
Installing the filter:
Connect the new filter to the silicone hose (after the sili
-
cone hose has been cleaned and disinfected). Observe
direction of flow (arrow must show upwards). Reconnect
filter to connection 4.2.
