SSCOR S-SCORT VX2 Manual De Instrucciones De Funcionamiento Y Mantenimiento página 7

Electrical operation: Constant battery charging is required.
DC BATTERY CHARGING FROM VEHICLE
Hard wire the charging cable to the hot DC circuit (in front of the master switch). Connect the electri-
cal line cord to the S-SCORT by securely attaching the charging plug (1.1A) into the receptacle (1A).
The vehicle electrical system furnishes power to the internal dual mode charger. The pump is powered
by the vehicle current.
DC BATTERY CHARGING FROM AC POWER USING AC-DC CONVERTER
The 9Volt 1Amp AC Converter will not run the pump. If battery charging from AC power is required,
connect the SSCOR AC-DC converter (1) to an AC outlet. The converter connects to the unit through
the receptacle (1A) on the front panel. Do not attempt to run the pump with the AC converter attached
to the pump. Remove the AC converter connection from the pump prior to any suction precedure.
BATTERY CHARGING VERIFICATION
Once the unit is connected to the charging source, check the control panel (2). The "power source con-
nected" orange LED (3) shows a good connection and battery is charging.
TEST FOR VACUUM
• Press the ON/OFF switch (5) on the control panel to start the vacuum pump.
• Attach patient tubing to patient port (12) on collection canister (13).
Two Position Regulator Models
• Occlude patient tubing and push vacuum regulator (7) to the stop (full vacuum).
Observe vacuum depressing canister lid. Pull vacuum regulator out to the stop to reduce vacuum to
125mmHg.
Variable Regulator Models
• Occlude patient tube and turn vacuum regulator (7) clockwise to the stop.
• Observe gauge (located above the vacuum regulator). The vacuum reading should rise to 300mmHg
from the zero setting in 2 seconds. It should max out at approximately 525 mmHg.
NOTE 1: After the vacuum test, readjust the vacuum reading to your desired level.
NOTE 2: If the vacuum does not exceed 525mmHg, check for a leak in the system i.e. tubing, barb
connections or loose canister lid (10,11,12,13). Refer internal vacuum problems to qualified personnel.
After your test, reconnect the unit to the charging source; check the power light (3).
Running on DC Power
Turn the unit on and disconnect it from the charging source to test the function of the battery.
1. Check battery condition indicators (4), See page 5.
SPECIAL NOTICE: A blinking LED on the control panel indicates low battery capacity. This means
the battery has been subjected to irreparable damage.
REPLACE BATTERY!
Keep the unit connected to the charging source at all times except for portable use.
