4.3.2. Adjust The Vacuum Level
1. Once power source is selected, turn the unit on by pressing the “On” button. The GREEN light, representing external
power, will remain lit when external power is connected.
2. Occlude the patient end of the tubing, then adjust vacuum level from 50 to 550 mmHg by turning the vacuum
regulator knob clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to decrease the vacuum (fig. 20). Release and occlude
once more to confirm setting. The desired level of vacuum can be viewed on the LED display (fig. 20).
3. desired level of vacuum can be viewed on the LED display (fig. 10).
The LEDs have two brightness levels. As the vacuum level is adjusted the LEDs will illuminate in progression. When an
LED is at half brightness, it indicates that the vacuum level is halfway between the previous fully lit LED and the half
brightness LED. EXAMPLE: If the 150 mmHg LED is fully illuminated and the 200 mmHg LED is at half brightness, this
indicates that the suction level is 175 mm Hg. When the 200
mmHg LED illuminates at full brightness, this indicates the unit has reached 200 mmHg. Attention should be taken
when setting the different vacuum levels; and it might be necessary to adjust the suction level to local protocol during
use.
3. Connect suction tip or catheter as appropriate.
If the unit does not maintain vacuum, refer to Troubleshooting.
