17. Service and maintenance
All maintenance work required for the devices that are installed in the
META Tower is described in the single device manuals and in the download
area on www.metasys.com.
Before carrying out any maintenance or repair work, the META Tower
must be switched off and disconnected from the mains power supply;
the compressed air tank must be depressurised (check on the pressure
gauge).
The following filters must be checked and cleaned:
Filters in the hose support and the suction line
Filters for the mouth rinsing basin drain and the mouth rinsing basin
valve
Filters on the suction machine
Servicing compressors
The maintenance intervals are binding and must be adhered to. The
following maintenance work is prescribed: the annual filter cartridge
change (filter cartridge replacement kit), the „3000 h kit + valve block“.
The maintenance work carried out must be documented on page 4 of this
installation manual (device document). METASYS reserves the right to
inspect the maintenance records.
Repair work going beyond normal servicing may only be carried out by a
qualified technician or by METASYS technical customer service. Only use
spare parts approved by the manufacturer and accessories designed for
this purpose!
18. Decommissioning and disposal
Decommissioning
If the META Tower is not used for an extended period, we recommend
draining the condensation from the pressure tank and running the
compressor in the META Tower for around 10 minutes with the condensation
drain open. Then switch the compressor off at the pressure switch, close
the condensation drain and remove the power plug.
Disposal
After disconnecting the device from the power supply (by removing the
plug), the pressure in the pressure tank must be relieved by opening the
relevant drain valve.
When disposing of the compressor, take all safety precautions to prevent
injury to people and damage to property.
The machines may be contaminated. Advise the disposal
company of this so that appropriate precautions can be taken.
Parts that are contaminated with amalgam, such as sieves,
filters, hoses, etc., must also be disposed of in accordance
with the national regulations.
Uncontaminated plastic parts of the suction system can be recycled as
normal plastics.
The integrated control unit, circuit boards and components must be
disposed of as electronic waste. The remaining metal parts must be
disposed of as scrap metal.
All connections must be sealed when sending the device back, e.g. to the
depot or to METASYS Medizintechnik GmbH.
