The adjustable height cart head is mounted on a stable
U-frame. The top of the cart is hinged to permit easy
access to the internal components.
The dental delivery system is a combination of
dental equipment components used to carry,
position and control the devices used in the practice of
dentistry. Delivery systems provide for handpieces and
deliver air, water, vacuum and low voltage electricity
to the dental patient. Delivery systems generally have
several components including a control head, vacuum
utilities, assistant’s utilities, a multifunction syringe and
Intended Use - Dental Cart & Unit
a junction box. Cart Delivery Units are mounted on a
mobile cart.
Air, water, vacuum, drain and electrical power
generally enter the system through the junction box.
Shut-off valves, pressure regulators, transformers and
other devices are located in the junction box. Tubing
delivers air, water and vacuum to the control head and
to the dental handpieces and multifunctional syringe.
Low voltage electricity may be delivered to the control
head for operating items such as scalers, electric
handpieces and ber optic light sources.
The control head contains adjustment knobs for
controlling handpiece pressure, and the amount of
coolant air and water. The dentist controls the rate and
ow through the pressure applied to the foot control or
syringe buttons. There may be a low voltage control
device to control chair positioning and turn the inter-oral
light on and off.
The dental delivery system is classied as Class 1 device under rule FDA CFR 21, Class II device under Health Canada
guidelines and a Class IIa device under rule 11 of the MDD 93/42/EEC of Annex IX. Accordingly, the provisions of Annex
