Main functions: Aspiration of secretion, blood, serous fluids, vomit and rinsing fluids
along with any contained particles as well as temporary collection
of these fluids.
Intended use: Drainage and temporary collection of body fluids. A negative
pressure is generated by means of an electrical aspiration pump. A
septic fluid jar, which must be installed, allows for temporary
collection of the drained body fluids.
Intended users / user

Intended patient target
groups:
Patients of all age groups with and without restrictions
Medical conditions to be
diagnosed, treated or
monitored:
Patients requiring aspiration, e.g., in the operating theatre
Organ(s) applied to: Natural and artificial body orifices
Duration of application: Device designed for continuous application; in practice, short-term
use on the patient (<30 days)
Use environment: Environments for use are the hospital/clinic environment and
doctor’s practices. The device may only be used by trained and
instructed medical staff.
Patient selection criteria: All patients requiring aspiration
Indications: For all applications requiring aspiration, e.g., general surgical
interventions (aspiration of wound cavities, abscesses), aspiration
of the nasopharynx, bronchial aspiration, during endoscopy for
aspiration of secretion or rinsing fluids, and in neurosurgery

1.5.4 Interface description
Other connected products
To fulfil its intended purpose, the product must be connected according to the following interface
descriptions:
1.5.4.1 Hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter
NOTE
The use of a hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter is not necessary if a suitable
hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter is integrated for a specific purpose in the septic
fluid jar of a disposal aspiration system.
The hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter protects against contaminants which could be present in
the form of particles or aerosols in the gas drawn in. Moreover, the hydrophobic bacterial and
viral filter serves as protection against oversuction; the hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter
closes off the flow of gas to the product in the event of oversuction. In its function as a bacterial
and viral filter, it protects the inside of the pump from the ingress of bacteria and viruses. The
products sold by ATMOS (REF 5752 1783) and (REF 5752 4514) are hydrophobic bacterial and
viral filters.
Prerequisites:
• Pore size ≤ 1,0 µm
• Conical tube connector with an outer diameter of 8 to 11 mm
• The tube connector must match the tube being used.
• The conical connector must match the septic fluid jar cap being used.
• The hydrophobic bacterial and viral filter must close tightly against water passage at an
absolute pressure of up to 10 kPa
• Observe the direction of flow, if applicable (see note on the hydrophobic filter).
1.5.4.2 Vacuum connection tube
The vacuum connection tube is used to connect the aspirator and the septic fluid jar.
Technical specifications:
• Shore hardness of 60
• Inner diameter 6–8 mm
• Tube length between aspirator and filter is max. 60 cm ±10 cm
• Vacuum resistant down to −95 kPa (must not collapse)
Prerequisites:
• The vacuum connection tube must comply with the hospital's standards for hygiene.
• The vacuum connection tube must be connected using a hydrophobic bacterial filter.
• The inner diameter of the vacuum connection tube should match the outer diameter of the
tube connector on the septic fluid jar cap of the pump.

16 GA 5752 2300 GB 27
Introduction
Basic requirements

2.1 General safety notes
DANGER!
Danger to life!
For open heart operations and those to the central nervous system, there may be
equipotential bonding between the user and the patient.
The product may not be used with components for aspiration that are metal and
conductive. For use on open hearts and the central nervous system, CF protective
class equipment is necessary.
DANGER!
Danger to life! Danger due to unauthorised modifications.
The product may not be modified.
DANGER!
Explosion hazard!

GA 5752 2300 GB 27 19
Safety notes
General safety notes 2
DANGER!
Infection hazard!
The bacterial filter paper provides additional protection against contamination of the
ambient air.
Do not operate the aspirator without a bacterial filter paper.
WARNING!
Risk of injury!
ATMOS products may be used only when fully functional.
Check to ensure that the ATMOS product is fully functional and in good working
order prior to use.
WARNING!
Risk of injury!
Electrical devices (e.g. mobile phones, radios, magnetic resonance tomography
scanners) may interfere with the functioning of the equipment when used in the
vicinity of the equipment.
Please observe the specifications regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
(emission and resistance to interference).
Adhere to these specifications when using electrical devices and react if you see
your equipment being affected in any way.
WARNING!
Risk of infection due to improper handling
Applicable rules for hygiene have to be observed in order to avoid infection or
bacterial contamination when suctioning off and disposing of secretions. Observe
the intended purpose of the bacterial filter. Use only sterile catheters during
extraction and ensure that the patient is not injured during the procedure. Always
wear gloves while working.
WARNING!
Risk of infection due to using no or a defective hydrophobic bacterial and virus
filter.
Secretions enter the aspirator during aspiration.
Stop using the aspirator. Clean and disinfect the aspirator and have it repaired by a
service technician authorised by ATMOS to do so.
WARNING!
Contact may cause allergic reactions!
The materials used have been tested for their tolerability. In very rare cases,
contact with accessible materials on the device and its accessories may cause

2.2 Product safety notes
DANGER!
Infection hazard!
Risk of bacteria and viruses entering the aspirator.
A bacterial and virus filter protects the inside of the aspirator against contamination
by bacteria and viruses.
Use a bacterial and virus filter which also provides protection against oversuction.
WARNING!
Risk of injury!
Aggressive vapours may be generated during the aspiration of liquids.
Use appropriate smoke filter for the aspiration of liquids with highly volatile agents
(e.g. when using iodine as disinfectant).
CAUTION!
Property damage due to oversuction!
The product may only be operated with the overflow protection in place as
otherwise oversuction could occur. A hydrophobic filter offers an additional
protection against oversuction. It closes off the flow of gas to the product. Particles
in the gaseous phase may clog the hydrophobic filter.
Use a bacterial and virus filter which also protects the inside of the aspiration from
bacterial and viruses.
CAUTION!
Observe ambient conditions!
If the ambient conditions are undercut or exceeded during transportation, storage
or operation, functionality may be affected.
Conduct a functional check and rectify any deficiencies.
