A-704
If the unit does not receive an external power source or the battery does not get recharged immediately, the low battery indicator light will
remain on and the performance of the unit will drop off rapidly. Switch to another power source immediately to avoid an interrupted suction
procedure.
Adjust the vacuum level from 80 to 550 mm Hg by turning the vacuum regulator knob located on the side of the unit (clockwise to increase vacuum
and counter-clockwise to decrease vacuum). The desired level of vacuum can be set by using the gauge located on the top of the unit near the han-
dle. To accurately read the gauge, block the patient end of the hose or cap off the collection bottle and allow the gauge to reach a stable vacuum
reading.
NOTE–
Gauge is for reference only. If the unit sustains a severe drop, accuracy of the gauge must be checked.
Suction at the patient is automatically obstructed when liquid level reaches the float shut-off located on the underside of the collection bottle lid.
NOTE–
Always transport unit with vacuum regulator knob rotated fully clockwise in case unit is dropped.
CAUTION– When automatic float shut-off is activated, contents of the collection bottle should be emptied. Further suctioning could cause damage to the vac-
uum pump.
CAUTION– Should fluid be aspirated back into the unit, equipment provider servicing is necessary as possible vacuum pump damage may result.
BATTERY CHARGING
On 7305P series, the units are equipped with a factory-installed rechargeable battery. The unit will have a light for low battery and charge indication.
On7305D series, the units are not factory equipped with a rechargeable battery; check with your equipment provider to determine if your unit has
been upgraded with a rechargeable battery.
Once you've determined that your unit is equipped with an internal rechargeable battery, connect the unit to the proper AC or DC power source using
the AC adapter or DC power cord. The green external power light shall be illuminated. The yellow charge indicator will be illuminated while the bat-
tery is charging. Verify that this illuminates when charging begins. As the charge nears a full charge, the yellow LED may flash on and off for several
minutes. This is normal.
NOTE–
A discharged battery will require 10-17 hours (depending on depth of discharge) of charging to reach a full capacity.
NOTE–
Do not connect the AC adapter to an outlet controlled by a switch to ensure power is supplied to unit at all times.
NOTE–
Do not connect the DC power cord to an outlet that is not constantly energized.
NOTE–
A fully charged battery, on the 7305P series will provide approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation at a zero vacuum level (free flow).
NOTE–
If unit is not in use for extended periods, battery should be recharged every 6 months minimum.
CAUTION– Discharging the battery completely will shorten the life of the battery. Do not operate the unit more than a few minutes if the low battery indica-
tor light is lit. Recharge as soon as possible.
NOTE–
When charging the battery, the battery charging indicator light will remain lit. If your unit does not hold a charge, please be sure the model you are using has a
battery installed prior to returning it to your authorized Sunrise Medical provider or to Sunrise Medical. Verify that the charge light turns on when the external
power is applied with the switch in the “Off” position.
NOTE–
Units equipped with an internal rechargeable battery contain a sealed lead-acid battery which must be recycled.
