4. GENERAL CARE
CLEANING
WARNING
The equipment must be disconnected
from the mains electrical supply prior
to cleaning and disinfection.
4.1 The following routine should be carried out immediately after each period of use:
i. Disposable filters must be changed after
each day's use, or IMMEDIATELY if wetted, or after aspiration of infective fluids.
ii. All components likely to be in contact with
aspirated body fluids should be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized after use, or whenever it is suspected that infective fluids have been in contact with the unit.
iii. The outside of the suction unit should be
washed with hot (55°C) detergent solution, e.g. 0.1% Teepol or equivalent, rinsed with clean water, and wiped dry.
iv. The jar inlet tube can be cleaned by
removing the jar lid and flushing the tube through with water under pressure.
v. In case of undue frothing, for example,
moisture could be sucked past the cutoff valve. If wetting of the filter indicates that this has happened, the cutoff valve assembly must be disinfected.
vi. Should the float cage, or rubber valve seat
be damaged in any way, the complete cutoff valve assembly must be renewed.
vii. Phenol based disinfectants and solvent-
based liquids should not be used for cleaning receiver jars, use aqueous based liquids at all times.
STERILIZATION
method of sterilization for the jars is steam autoclaving, if chemical techniques are to be used only use aqueous based systems.
4.3 Jars and lids should be thoroughly cleaned before autoclaving and all traces of cleaning liquids removed by adequate rinsing in water. (Also see section ‘vii’ of section 4.1).
SUCTION UNIT DISINFECTION
4.4 The suction unit should be moved to a well-ventilated area designed and used as the disinfection area. Access to the area should be restricted to those people involved in the disinfection process. Initially the unit should be cleaned as detailed above [4.1­(iii)] and then disinfected as below:
i Wash down all surfaces and crevices with
a 70% solution of industrial methylated spirit and water. Allow drying by evaporation at room temperature.
ii All infected or soiled cleaning materials
should be disposed of safely and carefully , taking into account any National, Local or Hospital procedures covering the disposal of potentially contaminated waste.
DAILY CHECKS
4.5 To ensure the VP35 Suction Unit operates efficiently in an emergency, the following checks should be carried out daily:
i. Check jar cutoff valve for free movement.
If valve action is faulty , rectify or renew lid assembly .
ii. Check jar for cracks or chips in rim. Renew
if damaged. Renew rubber bung if hardened, split or damaged.
CAUTION
To avoid cracking the jar by thermal shock, place it towards the rear of the autoclave shelf and open the door slowly. Do not use phenols or solvent based disinfectants to sterilise jars.
4.2 The jar lid assembly can be sterilized by all normal methods including high pressure autoclaving. The most suitable
iv. With suction unit switched ‘on’, vacuum
control valve turned up to maximum and suction line blocked off, check reading on vacuum gauge moves quickly to at least 600mm Hg (atmosphere at 760mm Hg). Service unit if vacuum value low .
Note: Disposable filters, suction tubing, jars and disposable liners are relatively inexpensive items, and a stock of spares should always be readily available.

VP35 Suction Unit - Service Manual
5. MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Maintenance of the vacuum pump/motor unit and associated components will necessitate removal of the suction unit cover. SWITCH OFF AND DISCONNECT electrical supply to suction unit before removing cover.
GENERAL
5.1 Apart from cleaning and filter replacement, the suction unit does not require frequent in-depth maintenance. The pump oil level and condition need only be checked after every 500 hours or 3 months, unless contamination is suspected - in which case the unit must be removed from service immediately, cleaned and replenished with fresh oil (see section 5.7). Also the pump rotor blades should be examined for wear every three months.
5.2 Should suction performance deteriorate, it is strongly recommended that an Eschmann service engineer be called to deal with the problem (see inside front cover for details). If this is not possible, then provided that a competent engineer is available, items such as blades, oil seal gasket, oil wick and exhaust filter/silencer can be examined and, if necessary , renewed by hospital equipment maintenance staff.
CHECKING SUCTION PERFORMANCE
5.3 If at any time suction performance is poor this can be due to an air leakage in the system (e.g. split tubing, poor connection, worn or ill­fitting jar lids, chipped jar rims), blockage of the disposable filter or exhaust filter/silencer, or wear in pump blades or stator.
5.4 If deterioration of suction performance is due to a blocked filter, the pump will still produce a satisfactory reading on the vacuum gauge, but if it is due to leakage in the system or mechanical wear the vacuum reading will also be poor. To check vacuum performance of the suction unit, block off the suction line by placing a finger over jar lid or liner inlet nozzle and check the reading

on vacuum gauge. Vacuum reading should be 600mm Hg (at least) (atmosphere at 760mm Hg) with vacuum control valve turned to maximum position.
Note: A low indicated vacuum could also be due to a faulty vacuum gauge. If there are no leaks and oil condition is satisfactory, check gauge before assuming pump mechanical failure.
CHECKING PUMP OIL
5.5 After 500 hours/3 months or if at any time pump performance deteriorates, proceed as follows:
i. Switch off pump, remove oil filler plug
(item 7, Fig. 2) and observe level and condition of pump oil.
ii. If the level of the oil has fallen appreciably ,
add more of the high vacuum oil supplied until the oil reaches the oil filler hole, then install the oil filler plug securely. If the oil appears dirty or contaminated, the oil reservoir should be disassembled, cleaned out and replenished with fresh oil (see under ‘Pump blade replacement and pump cleaning’ section 5.7).

VP 35 Suction Unit - Service Manual
5. MAINTENANCE
5.6 After 12 months use, the pump oil reservoir should as a matter of routine servicing, be disassembled, cleaned and replenished with fresh oil.
PUMP BLADE REPLACEMENT and PUMP CLEANING
CAUTION
The pump oil reservoir (item 10, Fig. 3) and its front cover (item 1, Fig. 3) can be removed for cleaning and blade replacement purposes. Beyond this point, disassembly should only be undertaken by an Eschmann Service Engineer. If a situation occurs where this is necessary, in the absence of Eschmann personnel, advice should first be sought from Eschmann Equipment or their local representative.
5.7 T o gain access to the pump/motor unit, disconnect the electrical supply to the unit and remove the suction unit top cover. In order to carry out pump disassembly the pump/motor unit must be removed from the suction unit baseboard by removing the fixing screws from the motor feet. Now refer to Fig. 3 and proceed as follows:
i. Remove the oil filler plug (4) and drain all
the oil from the pump.
ii. Mark with a file the relative fixed positions
of pump stator (12), oil reservoir (10) and end cover (1).
iii. Release and extract the four long screws
(8) from the oil reservoir end cover (1), then separate the end cover and oil reservoir from the pump stator .
lubricate each blade with Eschmann ‘Universal’ high vacuum pump oil before inserting blades into their slots.
v. If the oil was dirty or contaminated,
thoroughly rinse-out the interior of the oil reservoir, the pump stator, the rotor slots and the inside face of the end cover . Use only disinfectant and warm water or mild organic solvents. When making up a disinfectant solution avoid the use of hypochlorites, which could damage the pump interior surfaces. If the pump interior has been badly contaminated, it may be necessary to carry out further disassembly in order to gain access to all internal surfaces; this should be the responsibility of an Eschmann Service engineer (see cautionary note above section 5.7). Rinse and dry all washed components thoroughly, before reassembling.
vi. Apply a film of clean high vacuum pump
oil to the stator bore, then reassemble the pump components, fitting a new cork gasket (9) and, if necessary , a new oil wick (1 1). Align oil reservoir (10) and end cover (1) with stator (12) by means of the file markings, insert the four long screws (8) and tighten them evenly and securely.
vii. Finally , add a charge (25ml) of fresh oil to
the oil reservoir, via the oil filler hole in the end cover, using Eschmann ‘Universal’ high vacuum pump oil (see spares list). Install the oil filler plug securely.
EXHAUST FILTER/SILENCER REPLACEMENT
iv . Pump blades will eventually wear after a
long period of use; the minimum root to tip dimension which a blade should be allowed to reach is 11mm (Fig. 4). Note the facing positions of the four pump blades then extract each one, examine it for wear or signs of damage and if replacement is necessary change all four blades at the same time (refer to Fig. 3). Clean out rotor slots then clean and
5.8 The exhaust filter/silencer (item 7, Fig. 3) which serves the double purpose of arresting oil mist and reducing exhaust noise cannot be serviced. Whenever the pump is disassembled for cleaning or blade inspection, or if it is noted that the filter/ silencer has become choked or fouled, it should be renewed as a complete item. If a filter/silencer is allowed to remain in this condition, this could also cause loss of flow.
