NOTE!
Ensure containers are positioned properly in the respective holders.
NOTE!
Only use containers with overflow protection.
5.3.2 Connecting the Vacuum Tube
CAUTION!
When using the Aquilex System with tissue removal systems, e.g. MyoSure®, the
combination of low set pressures and excessive vacuum pressures may result in
a significant loss of intrauterine distension pressure which has the potential to
affect the visibility of the surgical field. Conversely, when employing a high dis-
tension pressure, the deactivation of the tissue removal system can lead to pres-
sure spikes that can exceed 150 mmHg.
Connect vacuum tube with hygiene filter to suction containers. The vacuum tube
with hygiene filter must be replaced when dirty and after 30 days at the latest.
The vacuum tube with hygiene filter should not be cleaned.
