Introduction
The Transposal Ultra Fluid Cart (cart) is designed to collect surgical fluids from one patient at a time in a
reusable suction device that can then be emptied, cleaned, and rinsed. The cart is also designed to enhance or
replace main wall vacuum supplies in operating room suites. Two fluid collection capacity options are
available. The Ultra Quad (4 reservoirs) collects up to 52-liters of fluid while the Ultra Duo (2 reservoirs)
collects up to 33-liters. Once fluids are collected, the cart is connected to an Ultra Evacuation Unit (evac) to
process the reservoirs.
Two manuals are provided with this equipment and are shipped with the equipment during the initial
installation. Copies of these manuals are available to any Dornoch Medical Systems, Inc. (DMS) customer
upon request.
The two different manuals are as follows:
Instructions for Use Manual –This manual is designed to instruct users in the correct operation of
the cart as well as safety considerations associated with the unit.
Technical Service Manual –This manual includes operation instructions, installation & disconnection
instructions, technical specifications, and preventative maintenance requirements for the unit.
This is the Technical Service Manual, and it is broken into eight sections including:
Introduction
Technical Description
Operation
Instructions for Use
Installation
Maintenance
Company Information
Limited Warranty
As a supplement to these two manuals, instructional video(s) are available to assist maintenance personnel in
their understanding of the equipment‟s operation and the maintenance procedures needed. If required, DMS
service personnel can be contacted 24-hours a day at 1-888-466-6633.

Important Information
Please read this manual and follow all instructions. The words WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE have
special meanings and should be reviewed.
WARNING: Disregarding WARNING information may compromise the safety of the
patient and/or health care staff and may result in injury or death.
CAUTION: Disregarding CAUTION instructions may compromise product reliability
and may result in damage.
NOTE: NOTE information supplements and/or clarifies procedural information.
A triangle with an exclamation point alerts the health care professional to read and understand the
accompanying instructions, especially the operating, maintenance and safety information.
Intended Use
The intended use of the cart is to collect surgical fluids in a reusable suction device that can then be emptied,
cleaned, and rinsed while providing suction independent of the facility‟s wall source.
Equipment Description
Carts collect up to 52-liters of surgical fluids without the need to tandem multiple suction canisters. In
addition, the cart‟s on-board suction assist pump improves or replaces facility wall vacuum when inadequate
suction is otherwise present. The cart significantly reduces employee exposure to potentially infectious body
fluids, while eliminating up to 70% of Operating Room red bag waste.
The cart contains either two 16.5 Liter reservoirs or four 13 Liter reservoirs which are processed using an
evac. The multiple reservoir design allows separate suction level measurement. However, the carts contain a
single vacuum pump. A suction level decrease in any reservoir, due to an open port or line, may cause the
other reservoir to decrease. Once the system is installed, operators use the carts to collect fluid during
surgical cases and then move them to the evac where they are processed. Once the evac cycle is started, the
reservoirs are automatically emptied, cleaned, and rinsed. The carts are then wiped down and, with the
addition of a new single use lid or manifold, are ready for another surgical procedure.
Carts come in two model options with the main difference being the single use disposable. The two models
are the Ultra Fluid Cart (UL-DU2800 –Duo with Canister Lid and UL-QD2800 –Quad with Canister Lid)
and the UltrafleX Fluid Cart (UL-DU500 –Duo with Cart Manifold and UL-QD500 –Quad with Cart
Manifold). The 2800 configuration is designed for single patient use in each reservoir, as well as high fluid
generating procedures. The standard configuration Ultra Fluid Carts use the Transposal Single Use Lid #TP-
DL2800 to provide the suction to the surgical field. The other configuration option is the UltrafleX Fluid
Cart designed for the busy Operating Room demanding multi-patient fluid collection and high vacuum flow.
The special UltrafleX Fluid Cart Single Use Manifold #UL-CL500 supports these needs with a convenient,
easy-to-use remove and seal design.

Operation
The Transposal Ultra Infectious Fluid Management System consists of carts for fluid collection and the evac
for fluid disposal. Carts collect up to 52 liters of surgical fluids without the need to tandem multiple suction
canisters. In addition, each Ultra unit‟s on-board vacuum pump replaces or improves facility wall vacuum
performance when inadequate suction is otherwise present.
Once connected to a 120 VAC electrical outlet, cart reservoirs collect fluids from one to three separate sites.
Ultra Duo Fluid Carts have two 16.5 liter reservoirs and Ultra Quad Fluid Carts have four 13.0 liter
reservoirs. Reservoirs can be used with wall vacuum and/or the on-
board vacuum pump.
A single use lid (Figure 3) or manifold (Figure 4) is used to make suction
tube connections from the field to the cart. The Ultra Duo uses two
single use lids or manifolds and the Ultra Quad uses four lids or
manifolds. New lids are pressed on to the top of cart reservoirs or new
manifolds are inserted into the housings. On carts with the single use lid,
only one sealed, cleaned reservoir is used per patient. Carts are removed
from the OR suite for processing after all reservoirs have been used, or at
the end of the day. On carts with the single use cart manifold, the
manifold is changed between patients to allow for multi-patient fluid
collection. The carts are removed for processing at the end of every day.
Cart processing is accomplished with an
evac (Figure 5) located in an OR utility
closet or decontamination room. Evacs
empty, clean, and rinse reservoirs for
reuse. The evac‟s water, drain, and
sensor lines are easily connected to the
cart using a drip-less all-in-one coupler
connection. Carts are powered by the
evac coupler connection during
reservoir processing.
