SET-UP & OPERATION
Fully charge battery for 17
HOURS. (7314P series only) Insert container into holder and gently push into place. NOTE– Do not use excessive force. Pushing container down
too hard could cause potential leak or loss of suction.
Attach 6’ patient tubing to
container lid at outlet labeled
<Patient>.
Turn the unit “on”.
If using AC or DC power, plug
the small connector into the
DC power input on the side of
unit.
Plug the other end into an AC
wall outlet or DC receptacle.
NOTE– The AC adapter may
become warm to the touch
during charging or running of
the unit. This is normal.
Adjust the suction level.
Verify suction level.
NOTE - Always verify suction
level before beginning by
occluding open end of patient
tubing while observing gauge.
Adjust knob to desired level.
WARNING
If the unit is not receiving power from an external source or the battery was not recharged, the low battery indicator light will remain
on and the performance of the unit will drop off rapidly. Switch to another power source immediately after the low battery light appears
to avoid an interrupted suction procedure.
NOTE– The vacuum (negative) pressure should be set as directed by a physician or other appropriate health care professional. Published expert
consensus suggests the suction vacuum pressure should be set as low as possible to effectively clear secretions.1For tracheal and/or
endotracheal suctioning, a vacuum (negative) pressure of less than 100 mmHg in infants, less than 120 mmHg in children and less than 150
mmHg in adults has been recommended.2
NOTE– Gauge is for reference only. If the unit sustains a severe drop, accuracy of the gauge must be checked.
CAUTION– When automatic oat shut-off is activated, contents of the collection container should be emptied. Further suctioning could cause
damage to the vacuum pump.
CAUTION– Should uid be aspirated back into the unit, equipment provider servicing is necessary as possible vacuum pump damage may
result.
WARNING
This device is rated for intermittent operation use as noted in the specications. Do not operate device with no ow (or suction port
blocked). Continuous operation under this condition may cause the unit to thermal shut off or damage the device.

Suction Unit (multi-patient use)
Device Cleaning and Disinfection When There is a Patient Change
DeVilbiss Healthcare recommends that at least the following procedures be carried out by the manufacturer or a qualied third party between uses by different patients.
NOTE– When the device is used as per instructions under normal conditions the interior of the device is protected from exposure to pathogens by the in-line lter on the
collection container, hence no disinfection of internal components is necessary.
NOTE– If the device is used without an in-line lter then the interior of the device may be exposed to pathogens and the device cannot be disinfected.
NOTE– If the following described complete processing of the device by an appropriately trained individual is not possible, the device should not be used by another patient.
1. Use disinfectants safely. Always read the label and product information before use.
2. Always wear personal protective equipment when performing this procedure. Use suitable gloves and safety glasses. Cover exposed skin on arms to prevent accidental
contact with bleach solution that has been applied to the device. Perform disinfection in a well-ventilated area.
3. Dispose of all accessories that are not suitable for reuse. This includes but may not be limited to the collection container, lter, tubing and carrying case.
4. With the power switch in the “Off” position, disconnect the device from all external power sources.
5. Visually inspect the device for any damage, missing parts, etc.
6. Clean the exterior of the device with a clean lint-free cloth. Heavy soil should be removed with a clean lint-free cloth dampened with water. A soft bristled brush
dampened with water can be used to remove stubborn soil. Dry the device using a clean lint-free cloth if water was used to remove soil.
7. Use 5.25% chlorine bleach (Clorox Regular Liquid Bleach or equivalent). Mix one (1) part bleach with four (4) parts water in an appropriate clean container. This ratio
produces a one (1) part bleach to ve (5) total parts solution (1:5). The total volume (amount) of solution required is determined by the number of devices in need of
disinfection. NOTE – An alternate suitable commercial (bacterial-germicidal) disinfectant that meets the requirements listed in the NOTE below and is used as per the
disinfectant manufacturer’s recommended dilution rates and instructions may also be used.
CAUTION– Do not submerge the device in water as this will result in damage to the vacuum pump.
NOTE– Do not use any cleaners or disinfectants that contain ammonia, benzene and/or acetone to clean the device.
8. Apply the bleach solution in an even manner to the enclosure and power cord using a clean lint-free cloth. The cloth should be dampened only and not dripping of
solution. Do not use a spray bottle to apply the solution. Do not saturate the device with the solution. Avoid over-saturating the enclosure seams so that no solution
residue builds up in these areas.
