INTRODUCTION
SIGNALS
The retailer or the installation engineer will take
care to train the surgery staff with trials on a brand
new, non-contaminated appliance. The installation
of the Aspi-Jet is reserved to dental engineers
authorized by the manufacturer. Aspirated debris
is always contaminated and infected: for this
reason, we stress that the greatest care must be
used to prevent contamination of operators or the
environment. Contamination may also result from
an appliance in bad working order so we recommend
to contact only dental engineers whose teaching
and training is duly certified by the manufacturer.
Any modification of the appliance must be agreed
upon with the manufacturer.

GENERAL FEATURES
GENERAL INSTALLATION AND STARTING
TIPS
Our mobile aspirators supply a good aspiration
independent from the dental unit; the trolleys allow
use in any working position. The aspirator type 6
γ(canister to be emptied manually) can be moved
quickly from one surgery to another; for this reason
it can be used as an emergency aspirator to support
the centralized plant or the aspiration system of
the dental unit. Aspi-Jet 7 γis fitted with automatic
drainage, it must be connected to the waste of the
building. Besides the general features of Aspi-Jet 7
γ, Aspi-Jet 8 γand Aspi-Jet 9 γoffer some additional
function: water supply to the tumbler and spittoon
(cuspidor) with rinsing respectively. The switches
which control the above functions are marked with
symbols and are located on the front panel:
- a tumbler indicates the water supply on type 8 γ;
- a tap indicates rinsing of the spittoon on type 9 γ.
GENERAL FEATURES
GENERAL INSTALLATION AND STARTING TIPS
• Unpack the appliance following the instructions
shown on the package.
• Dispose of the package in compliance with
regulations.
• Verify that the appliance has not been damaged
during transport.
• Do not connect damaged appliances to the mains.
• Do not use extension leads, multiple plugs or
sockets.
• Ascertain that the feeding line is adequate to feed
the machine.
• Assembly of the aspirator must be carried out
by an expert, with suitable equipment and special
training. The installer should read the equipment
manual, perform commissioning and instruct the
users in the use and routine maintenance of the
new machine while it is still unused and therefore
not contaminated.
• The air exhausted by the aspiration system should
be filtered, with a special certified antibacterial filter
available on request, and expelled to the outside.
• After installation, perform the required safety and
operating tests.
• Arrange for periodical inspection of the equipment.
This will not only prevent stoppage of a chair or
of the whole surgery, but is also a way to prevent
injuries and accidents.
• You can find all our updated manuals at our
website: www.cattani.it. We recommend that you
consult them, especially for updates on the subject
of safety.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
The aspirator must be installed in compliance with
CEI 62-5 regulation for electro-medical appliances
(Aspi-Jet 6-7-8-9 γhave been designed accordingly).
Prior to plugging in the unit, check the specifications
on the label and make sure that the mains are
compatible with the appliance and protected against
overcurrent according to CEI 64/8 regulations.
The appliance must be protected against indirect
contacts for class I appliances according to CEI 64-8
reg. and 64-4 for rooms used as medical consulting
rooms (IEC correspondents available on demands).
The plug and cable are equipped with earthing
protection: do not remove this protection in any
case and make sure that the socket is compatible.
Once installation has been completed, the unit
can be switched on by pressing the main switch
1 located on the front panel; the switch will light
up and aspiration will start by lifting one of the
terminals from its seat. If you open the cabinet
door the electrical circuit is open and the aspirator
stops. In standard assembled units aspirated air is
exhausted through the silencer (2) (Fig. A). In order
to convey exhausted air outside you need to fit an
extension to hose 3C and drive it outside (Fig. A).
Most of the noise and bacteria will be carried
outside together with air; we can also supply a
certified bacterial filter for exhausted air.
When installing Aspi-Jet 8 γand 9 γ, besides all
general directions and regulations mentioned, the
engineers shall:
- connect the water supply, without removing the
antispray tube 15 (Fig. B), which protects the Rilsan
tube against bursting;
- check any possible leaking, especially near parts
subject to tension;
- adjust water pressure to a max of 4 bar by using
the pressure control device 12 (Fig. B).

OPERATION AND USE
OPERATION AND USE
Aspirated liquids and air are conveyed to the
manifold (4) through the tip and lifted hose and into
the canister through tube 3A (page 7); inside the
canister liquids are separated from air.
The air is driven all the way to the motor (through
pipe 3B) and is then exhausted, while liquids are
heavier and are collected at the bottom of the
canister. Aspi-Jet 6 γis equipped with a canister
(5) whose capacity allows 8/10-hour continuous
service before reaching maximum level, therefore
the canister needs emptying every evening after
work.
Aspi-Jet 7 γhas automatic drainage: a valve
(6) located at the bottom of the canister is kept
close by depression when suction is performed;
on the contrary, when all terminals are on their
seats suction stops and liquids are drained out
of the canister. In case the canister should fill up
during surgical operations, the probes (7) will
sense maximum level at about 3/4 of the canister
(shortest-probe level); the electrical circuit opens
and suction stops, while a yellow-light indicator
located on the front panel warns that the canister
is full.
For Aspi-Jet 6 γyou need to switch the unit off and
empty the canister manually; for Aspi-Jet 7 γ, as
mentioned above, the draining valve opens and the
draining pump (8) (page 7) starts working. In a few
seconds the canister is empty and suction starts
again automatically.
During surgical operations, foam build-up, caused
by blood and aspirated air, can reach probe level
causing the unit to stop; in this case we suggest the
use of our solid anti-foaming (directions for use are
inside the package - Fig. B1).
In case some failure (clogging of cooling system,
breakdown etc.) should cause overheating of the
motors - >120 °C for Uni-Jet 75 suction unit and
>90 °C for draining pump (8) - a thermal device
rated at a fixed temperature opens the circuit and
resets it automatically, when the temperature of
the windings is back to normal. Should this happen,
identify and eliminate the cause.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Together with liquids some solid particles may be
sucked in, therefore it is necessary to have filters
in order to protect the motor and recover wanted
particles.
Aspi-Jet 6 γis provided, like all other models, with
a debris filter 9 (Fig. C) which can be checked from
outside the cabinet; Aspi-Jet 7 γis provided with a
filter (10) on the canister cover.
Filters must be cleaned every day. In order to remove
the filter 9, first turn the unit on and aspirate only
air for some seconds so that hoses and manifold
dry out; disconnect the power supply line, lift the
terminals from their seat and remove manifold 4
(Fig. C) pulling the filter outwards by its handle. To
check filter 10 lift bent pipe union 11 (Fig. D).
For Aspi-Jet 6 γ, every evening, once disconnected
the power supply line, loosen the two rubber bands
and remove lid: take out canister, empty and clean
(Fig. E).
• Electrical shock risk: also 230 V can be lethal.
• Biological danger, risk of infections from epidemic
diseases.
• High temperature.
• Compulsory direction of flow and of rotation.

For Aspi-Jet 7-8-9 γthe canister must be removed
fortnight, cleaned and disinfected.
Canisters, covers and probes of all models once a
week must be accurately cleaned with a sponge and
Puli-Jet plus new or Puli-Jet plus 2.0 diluted in hot
water.
Every evening, after cleaning the filters, it is
important to aspirate Puli-Jet plus new or Puli-Jet
plus 2.0 diluted in hot water; to prepare the Puli-
Jet plus new or Puli-Jet plus 2.0 solution follow the
instructions on the bottle.
Disinfection and cleaning should be carried out
by means of Pulse Cleaner (Fig. F). Once rinsing
is completed, Aspi-Jet 7-8-9 γcarry out drainage
automatically, while for Aspi-Jet 6 γthe canister is
to be emptied once again.
Puli-Jet plus New with anti-scale or Puli-Jet plus
2.0 dissolves blood and mucus and performs an
antimicrobial action; if used regularly, every day
with hot water, Puli-Jet plus new or Puli-Jet plus
2.0 removes old scalings and disagreable smells.
Do not use detergents, even with reduced foaming,
as aspirated air volume and turbulence may cause
foam build up and damage the suction unit, make it
stop and produce disagreable smells.
O-rings (tightening rings) and sliding closures of
terminals (Fig. G) must be lubricated with Lubri-
Jet spray every 15 working days. It is advisable
to replace all hose of the plant (Fig. H), expecially
outside the unit, and terminals periodically for
sanitary and functional reasons (flexibility and
lightness of hose, smoothness of sliding closures).
