ASPIRATION SYSTEM
Note:
Every 30 days of operation (and especially in the event of system inactivity for several days)
check the entire aspiration system and make sure that it works correctly. This check must be
performed by an authorised technician.
If foam-generating substances are used (e.g. hydrogen peroxide, etc.), the system may temporarily stop. If this
malfunctioning occurs, use “antifoam agent” tablets. These tablets (a sample of which is included in the
aspiration accessory kit) must be placed in the drain filter and usually last a few days of operation.
All the parts of the aspiration cannulas are easy to disassemble (see Figure 19CT) for disinfection and cold
sterilization.
Note:
Every 15 days spray the closing tabs of each cannula with silicon spray. Spray the end piece
inside when the tab is closed, and the outside when the tab is open. Then, open and close
each end piece repeatedly.
Note:
For functional and hygienic reasons we recommend replacing the external aspiration tubes and
end pieces at least once a year.
