Intended Use
The intended use of the TPSS is the automated handling of surgical fluids collected within the hospital and/or surgical
center. Fluid filled canister(s) are automatically emptied, cleaned, disinfected and rinsed allowing for immediate reuse in
the surgical process.
Equipment Description
The TPSS is a standalone unit that can automatically process up to two disposable or reusable canisters. The TPSS also
disposes of solids that are normally flushed down a clinical sink (hopper) allowing it to replace an existing clinical sink
when space restrictions apply. The TPSS significantly reduces employee exposure to potentially infectious body fluids,
while eliminating up to 70% of Operating Room red bag waste.
The TPSS processes 1800cc and/or 2800cc canisters for reuse. Once installed, operators simply place fluid filled
canisters in the unit and close the lid. With a touch of a button the canisters are automatically emptied, cleaned,
disinfected and rinsed. The canisters are then placed in an area to dry. With the addition of a new single use lid, they are
ready for reuse within the facility.

Operation
The TPSS (Figure 3) empties, cleans, and disinfects reusable 1800cc, reusable
2800cc (Figure 4) or disposable 1800cc suction canisters. This unit is ideally
located in a decontamination room near the operating room suites.
When an instrument or DMS transport cart is unloaded in the decontamination
room, one or two sealed canisters are placed in the TPSS. The operator then
closes the TPSS lid and presses a button to start a patented disposal process.
With the TPSS lid locked, canister lids are removed and fluid collectors are
emptied, cleaned, and disinfected using an array of spray heads. A hot water and
enzyme solution cleans collectors. An inexpensive 2700 parts-per-million
household bleach and cold-water solution then disinfects.
Once disinfected, canisters are rinsed with cold water before
the unit’s lid unlocks and opens. Reusable canisters are then
removed from the TPSS and allowed to air dry before reuse
(Figure 5). Disposable canisters and lids are discarded. The
entire process takes just a minute and-a-half per canister.
DMS has received a letter of approval from the Clorox
Company for the use of Ultra Clorox Bleach (EPA Reg. No.
5813-50) as a disinfectant spray on reusable suction
canisters. Independent lab testing data demonstrating the
TPSS’s ability to deliver a minimum 2700 parts-per-million
disinfecting bleach solution is available upon request.

•Closed System Design. The TPSS is designed to confine and contain fluids during disposal. Personnel
never open suction canisters.
•Interactive Controls. The TPSS’s high-tech control system guides users through unit operation while
monitoring key functions.
•Disinfection Cycle Monitoring. Continuous automatic monitoring of the disinfection cycle is
accomplished with multiple electronic sensors within the TPSS unit.
•Vacuum Protection. Hydrophobic filters on each green Transposal single use lid prevent main line
vacuum contamination. In addition, DMS’s unique vacuum adapter only connects to protected lid
vacuum ports.
Environmental Protection
Infectious Waste: None
Non-infectious Waste: After the TPSS disinfection cycle has been completed; the canister and the
disposable are non-infectious.
Waste Disposal Accessories
There are no current accessories required for disposal from this unit.
MSDS Sheet for Bleach and Enzyme
MSDS sheets are available upon request by calling DMS at 1-888-466-6633.
Reusable Suction Canister Use and Processing
Canister Use. Transposal canisters, consisting of a reusable fluid collector and single use lid, shall be used in
place of traditional disposable suction canisters/liners in surgery and other patient care areas throughout the
facility. Transposal reusable canisters, like their disposable counterparts, are considered non-critical and non-
sterile medical devices and should be handled accordingly.
Before starting a procedure, verify the canister is clean and has a new single use lid is installed. If unsure of the
status of the lid, replace it with a known new single use lid.
Fluid collection for each canister is up to 2,800mL with an accuracy of +/- 50mL.

Safety Station Technical Service Manual 9 10/17/2011
GD-99009 Rev. B
Canister Processing. Designated OR, SPD, or housekeeping personnel shall empty, clean and disinfect used
Transposal canisters in the TPSS. Processing shall be accomplished in accordance with manufacturer’s directions.
While handling canisters, personnel shall wear personal protective equipment (PPE). Minimum PPE includes
gloves, mask, and eye shield.
Personnel shall wear clean gloves when removing processed canisters from the TPSS. Reusable collectors are
always removed first and placed on a rack to air dry. After removing collectors, personnel shall remove single use
lids and place them in regulated or non-regulated trash in accordance with facility policy.
Chemical Handling. Bleach and/or Enzyme should be added to the TPSS when notified that the chemical is
low. Add up to one gallon maximum to the reservoir to prevent overfilling. While adding chemicals, personnel
shall wear PPE.
If the bleach reservoir is allowed to run empty, the reusable canisters will not be disinfected at the end of the cycle.
Overflow Protection. The single use lid (#TP-DL2800) contains a white hydrophobic filter that serves as an
overflow protection device. Once the canister is filled to capacity and the filter gets wet, suction within the
canister will stop.
Only attach the black vacuum adapter from the suction source to the port labeled “vacuum supply” on the single
use lid. The filter is located under this connection port.
Disinfection Verification. Daily visual verification of the TPSS disinfection cycle shall be completed using a
Verification Log Kit (#TP-VL100). Continuous automatic monitoring of the disinfection cycle is accomplished
with multiple electronic sensors within the TPSS unit. If an error is detected, corrective actions are displayed on
the TPSS screen. All disinfection error messages shall be reported to an immediate supervisor.
Reusable Collector Storage. After drying, disinfected reusable collectors shall be transferred to a designated
clean storage area.
Single Use Lid Storage. A supply of new single use collector lids shall be kept in a designated clean storage area
with processed collectors, or near any point of use.
Canister Assembly. A new suction canister, consisting of a new single use lid and a dry disinfected reusable
collector, shall be assembled in a designated clean area. When assembling canisters, the user should visually
inspect the canister for any cracking or damage and replace it if necessary.

Safety Station Technical Service Manual 10 10/17/2011
GD-99009 Rev. B
Canister Replacement. Prior to reuse of the canister, a new single use lid (#TP-DL2800) must be placed onto
the clean canister. The user must verify the white hydrophobic filter is in place on the lid. Canister replacement
procedures by department are presented below.
Surgery, Special Studies, GI Clinic, Labor & Delivery Departments.Suction canisters shall be replaced after every surgical
procedure.
Med-Surg Floors, ICU’s, Other Non-Procedure Areas. Suction canisters shall be replaced for every new patient or every
24-hours for the same patient.
Canister Transportation. Used canisters shall be sealed, securely placed in an instrument or DMS Transport
Cart, and transported to the TPSS for immediate processing. Before placing canisters in to the TPSS, verify all of
the ports on the single use lid are capped.
Canister Storage. Used canisters may be stored up to 24 hours in a DMS Transport Cart or other secure location
prior to processing in the TPSS.
