
After completing assembling operations always make sue that cover seals perfectly to avoid vacuum leackages or
liquid exit
After disposing of disposable parts and disassembling the jar wash in running cold water and rinse thouroughly.
Then soak in warm water (temperature shall not exceed 60°C). Wash thouroughly and if necessary use a non-abrasive brush to
remove incrustations. Rinse in running warm water and dry all parts with a soft cloth (non-abrasive).
The jar and the cover can be autoclaved by placing the parts into the autoclave and running one sterilization stem cycle at 121°C
(1 bar relative pressure – 15 min) making sure that the jar is positioned upsidedown. Mechanical resistance of the jar is
guaranteed up to 30 cycles of sterilization and cleaning at the indicated conditions (EN ISO 10079-1). Beyond this limit the
physical-mechanical characteristics of the plastic may decrease and replacement of the part is therefore recommended.
After sterilization and cooling at environment temperature of the parts make sure that these are not damaged.
The aspiration tubes can be sterilized on autoclave using a sterilization cycle at 121°C (1 bar relative pressure – 15 min).
The conical connector can be sterilized on autoclave using a sterilization cycle at 121°C (1 bar relative pressure – 15 min).
DO NOT WASH, STERILIZE OR PUT IN AUTOCLAVE THE ANTIBACTERIAL FILTER
Instruction for disposal Liner Flovac®:
If the device is equipped with disposable collection systems FLOVAC ® carry out the disposal of the bag as follows:
Turn off the Vacuum and remove all the tubes connected to the Liner, giving particular attention to avoid accidental contamination.
Fit the appropriate plugs to the "PATIENT" and "TANDEM" ports, pressing the home firmly, taking care to avoid accidental
contamination. Turn the butterfly connector to OFF. Remove the liner bag from the rigid container and transfer it to the waste
disposal area, ensuring that all the openings are sealed, keeping in mind the product is potentially infectious.
This product must be disposed of in accordance with the current hospital regulations.
The SUPER VEGA SUCTION ASPIRATOR does not need maintenance or lubrication.
It is, however, necessary to inspect the unit before each use. With regard to training, given the information contained in the user
manual and since it is easy to understand the said device, it doesn't appear to be necessary.
Unpack the instrument and always check integrity of plastic parts and feeding cable, they might have been damaged during
previous use. Connect the cable to electrical network and turn the switch on.
Close the aspirator outlet with your finger and with suction regulator at maximum check that the vacuum indicators reaches at
least -80kPa (-0.80 bar). Rotate the knob from right to left. The vacuum indicator should go down -40kPa (-0.40 bar).
Check that no loud noises are present. A protection fuses (F 1 x 1.6 A L 250V) reachable from exterior and situated in the plug
protects the instrument. For fuses replacing, always the type and the range.
Before changing the fuse, disconnect the plug from the power supply socket.
Internally, the device (only for devices fitted with a circuit board) is protected by a fuse (T 50mA L 250V) that cannot be reached
from the outside, so please contact a technician authorised by the manufacturer for its replacement.

1. The suction unit doesn't
work
2. No aspiration
3. No aspiration
4. The Vacuum power on the
patient side is either very low
or absent
5. The float doesn't close
6. The float doesn't close
7. Low suction
Faults 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7

PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE CHECKS

Cause
Cable is damaged
External power source failure
Jar Cap not screwed on correctly
Lid seal not in its seat
 Vacuum regulator set to

None of the procedures have
achieved the desired results
Remedy
Replace the cable
Check the external power source
Unscrew the cap, and re-screw it
Unscrew the cap and insert the seal properly in
its seat
 Turn the vacuum regulator clockwise and
check the value of the vacuum on the gauge
 Replace the filter
 Replace or reconnect the tubes, check the jar
connections
 Empty the jar, or disconnect the tube from the
jar and unblock the shut-off valve. The unit
twill only work in the upright position
 Refer to authorised service personnel
