The canister must be replaced when the liquid level exceeds 650 ml. In this case, an
alarm will be activated. The vacuum operation will stop when the fluids level in the
Canister reaches 700 ml.
When fluids in the canister reach approximately 650 ml, solidification process of the
fluids by the hydro-gel at the top of the canister will start, and will be completed within 60
minutes.
Warning: The collection canister and tubing are intended for single use only and
must be disposed off after usage according to hospital and bio-hazard protocols and
according to institutional procedures and local, state and federal environmental
regulations.

protocols.
Insert a new collection canister to the socket. A clicking sound will indicate that the
canister is properly inserted.
6. Connect the new proximal canister tube to the distal tube connected to the
dressing.
7. Turn the device on using the main power switch.
8. Activate Vacuum using the OP/SET button.
