PROBE CH 20 ANTIBACTERIAL FILTER
The filter is produced with (PTFE) hydrophobic material witch prevents fluids entering the pneumatic circuit. When the
filter is wet, it’s not possible to use the unit therefore the filter should be changed immediately. In case of possible
contamination or discoloration, change the filter immediately.
Don’t use the suction unit without the protection filter fitted. If the suction unit is used in an emergency or in a patient where
the risk of contamination is not known the filter must be changed after each use.
The suction probe must be changed at the end of each application.
Available under request with different versions with two complete jars 2200cc.
CLEANING OF ACCESSORIES
Wearing disposable latex gloves proceed to clean the accessories as follows:
1. Grip the jar with your hand and turn the cap in a counter-clockwise direction.
2. Remove the red cage covering the float located in the jar cap (conical part
with 3 openings)
3. Once the cage is removed, the float with the red seal comes out of the jar cap.
4. To disinfect the accessories, use either denatured alcohol or hypochlorate-based solutions, easily purchasable from
chemist shops.

5. Once cleaning has been completed, insert the float in the cage, with the seal facing towards the cage opening.
6. Insert the opening of the cage into the seat in the jar cap.
7. To facilitate the cleaning of the jar, fill it 1/3 full of ordinary water.
The aspirated liquid, thus diluted, will then be easier to remove.
It is possible autoclave the accessories cover and jar: insert the parts in autoclave and to effect a cycle of sterilization with
vapour to the temperature of 121°C (pressure relative 1 bar) having care to position turned upside-down the graduated jar
(with turned fund toward the tall one).
After the sterilization and the cooling to the temperature the components' environment, to verify that this last don't result
damaged; disassembled therefore the container for inhaled liquids following the inverse operations to the dismantlement.
The aspiration tubes can be sterilized on autoclave using a sterilization cycle at 120°C.The conical connector can be sterilized
on autoclave using a sterilization cycle at 121°C. The device is ready for a new employment now.
During the sterilization operations the operator must use disposable gloves in latex, shirts and opportune mask not to enter
contact with possible substances contaminating

DO NOT WASH, STERILIZE OR PUT IN AUTOCLAVE THE ANTIBACTERIAL FILTER
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 maxi mum 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.
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.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE
Connect the short silicon tube 1 ,with filter antibacterial 8, to the suction connector 2.
The other tube, with one end connected to the filter must be connected with the other end to jar’s lid connector 3 where has
been fixed the red float.
When the 90% of the volume of the jar is reached there is the activation of the security float (the float close the aspiration
connector on the jar) to avoid liquid penetration inside the device. The device must be used on a plan of horizontal operation.
Connect the long silicon tube 4 to the other jar's lid connector 5
Connect the other end of the long silicon tube 4 to the probe plastic connector 6 then
connect the suction probe to it.
Connect the power cord to the device then connect the plug to the electrical mains supply.
Push switch 7 on position I to start suction
Once finished push switch on 0 position and unplug.
Unscrew the jar's lid and fill the jar 1/3 full or ordinary water (this for an easy cleaning operations and an rapid reaching of the
functionally vacuum) then rescrew the lid on the jar correctly.
To extract the accessories and start with cleaning.
