1.1 Purpose
ACCUVAC Basic is a mobile and portable electrically
powered aspirator (suction pump).
It is used for:
• aspirating accumulations of blood, secretions and
food from the oral cavity, the nose and throat
region and the bronchial system;
• deflating vacuum matresses and inflatable splints.
ACCUVAC Basic:
• can when used by a skilled operator eliminate
obstruction of the respiratory tract and hence the
risk of respiratory failure;
• cuts energy consumption by reducing power
output on reaching the necessary vacuum;
• can optionally be powered by a rechargeable
internal power pack;
• or by an external DC source supplying 12.0 -
13.8 V;
• is also suitable for use in wards.
ACCUVAC Basic must
not
be used:
• in medical rooms where potential equalization is
necessary (e.g. heart surgery);
• in explosion-risk areas.
