PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE CHECKS
The SUPER VEGA suction equipment does not need maintenance or lubrication.
It is necessary to check functioning and instrument before every use. Unpack the instrument and always
check integrity of plastic parts and feeding cable, they might have been damaged during previous use.
Connect cable to electrical network and turn switch on. Close the aspirator outlet with your finger and with
suction regulator in maximum vacuum position check that the vacuum indicators reaches
-80kPa (-0.80 bar) minimum. Rotate the knob from right to left and check the aspiration regulating control.
The vacuum indicator should go down -40kPa (-0.40 bar).
Verify that loud noises are not present, these can indicate wrong functioning.
Two protection fuses (F 1 x 1.6 A 250V) reachable from exterior and situated in the plug protects the
instrument. For fuses replacing, always the type and the range.
Type of fault
1. No aspiration
2. No aspiration
3. The float doesn't close
4. The float doesn't close
5. Low suction
6. No aspiration due to
flow leakage of mucus
Faults 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6
If the overfill security system it's activated, don't proceed with the liquid aspiration.
If the overfill security system doesn't work there are two cases:
1° case – If the overfill security system doesn't work the aspiration will be stopped by the bacteriological
filter who avoid the liquid penetration inside the device.
2° case – If both the security system doesn't work, there is the possibility that liquid comes inside the
device, in this case return the device to GIMA technical service.
BEFORE EVERY CHECKING OPERATION, IN CASE OF ANOMALIES OR BAD FUNCTIONING,
PLEASE CONTACT GIMA TECHNICAL SERVICE.
GIMA DOES NOT GIVE GUARANTEE IF INSTRUMENT, AFTER THE TECHNICAL SERVICE
CHECKING, APPEARS TO BE TAMPERED.
