CONDENSATION DRAIN
The equipment is supplied with an air filtering device and a condensate drain valve.
Any condensate accumulating in the transparent cup is expelled by pushing upwards the needle valve
located on the cup bottom, as shown in figure 17C and 17T.
N.B.: check for condensate on a weekly basis.

ASPIRATION SYSTEM
Every 30 days of operation (and especially in the event of system inactivity for several days) check the
entire aspiration system and make sure that it works correctly. This check must be performed by an
authorised technician.
If foam-generating substances are used (e.g. hydrogen peroxide, etc.), the system may temporarily stop.
If this malfunctioning occurs, use “antifoam agent” tablets. These tablets (a sample of which is included
in the aspiration accessory kit) must be placed in the drain filter and usually last a few days of operation.
All the parts of the aspiration cannulas are easy to disassemble (see Figure) for disinfection and cold
sterilization..
Every 15 days spray the closing tabs of each cannula with silicon spray. Spray the end piece inside when
the tab is closed, and the outside when the tab is open. Then, open and close each end piece repeatedly.
For functional and hygienic reasons we recommend replacing the external aspiration tubes and end pieces
at least once a year.
