3.3.2 Sediment Bowl checking and Replacement
WARninG – infectious Materials
The suction system may contain infectious materials. Always wear personal protective equipment and follow
appropriate protocol.
cAUTiOn:
Due to its caustic nature, DO NOT use BLEACH as a disinfectant, as it will corrode certain internal parts.
Small amounts used as an irrigating solution for dental procedures is acceptable.
Use qualified service personnel to open the back panel of the system and remove the sediment bowl. See service instructions
for access. The holding tank is located on the left above the vacuum pump. Loosen the Velcro straps under the separator (Fig
3.4-A). Grab the sediment bowl with both hands and remove by rotating while pulling down (Fig 3.4 - B). Once removed,
empty contents into an appropriate hazardous waste receptacle to send to an authorized mercury disposal service provider.
Replace the bowl by sliding it into the Holding Tank until seated. Secure with Velcro straps. Close back panel and secure.
3.3.3 System Air Pressure
An air filter/regulator (see Figure 3.4 - A) controls system air pressure and is preset to 75-80 psi.
The air/filter regulator is located inside the unit, at the base of the aluminum air tanks. To access,
remove the panel screws and open the panel. Read the air gauge provided. If the system pressure is
not 75-80 psi, lift the adjustment knob and turn clockwise to increase pressure or counter-clockwise
to decrease pressure. To release excess pressure, press the Air Syringe button before reading the
gauge. When the desired pressure is reached, push the adjustment knob back down to lock it in
place and prevent accidental pressure change.
3.3.4 Oil Mist Recovery Jar
The dental unit utilizes a container to assist in capturing excess handpiece lubricant. This Oil Mist Recovery Jar is located under
the left side of the system behind the holder bar. Exhaust lines of the pneumatic handpiece connections are routed through it
and then exhausted out through a separate tubing. The jar uses standard 2 by 2 gauze to capture oil mist droplets from the
exhaust air. The gauze should be replaced every three months or whenever it becomes visibly noticeable that it is discolored
from oil mist. To change: unscrew the jar, remove and dispose of the old gauze. Unfold a new gauze, fluff it up, place it in the
jar and reattach.
