6. Functional description
This appliance has been developed to aspirate
secretions, blood, tissue and bone, as well as
fluids accumulating during drilling, from the
patient´s oral cavitiy� This unit is especially rec-
ommended for mouth and mandible surgery,
e�g� in implantology, where large amounts of
blood are likely to be produced and which has a
tendency to coagulate� Conventional suction
machines and/or separation units cannot usually
cope�
Both vacuum and delivery have been specially
adapted for this special usage and can be regu-
lated from the unit itself�
After switching on the VC 45 at the main power
supply switch, the vacuum pump in the unit
starts up� On the upper side of the VC 45 there
is a pressure gauge which displays the level of
vacuum being produced� To regulate the vacu-
um, close the suction handpiece adjust the
amount of vacuum required by turning the rotat-
ing thumb screw� Once a surgical cannula has
been inserted into the suction handpiece, the
VC 45 is operational� The aspirated material
passes directly to the collector vessel� Inside the
collector vessel, the air is separated from the
aspirated fluids and other particles� Within the
collector lid there is a bacteria filter, which is de-
signed so that fluids are prevented from flowing
to the vacuum pump� Below this bacteria filter
there is a spray shield, which stops any fluids
being splashed towards the bacteria filter� Once
work has ceased, the unit should be switched
off at the main power supply switch�
Before removing the collector vessel in order to
empty it, be sure to allow a few moments for the
vacuum pressure within the unit to subside�
