Suction
A gas-powered, venturi-generated vacuum drives
the suction circuit, which provides a negative
pressure for suctioning the patient’s airway. This
suction device is specifically intended for removal
of mucus from neonates post delivery. The suction
negative pressure is indicated on the suction gauge.
Adjust suction with the Suction control, and turn it
on or off with the On/Off switch. A fixed relief valve limits the maximum suction pressure to 150 mm
Hg (80" H
2
O/mbar). This suction module contains an On/Off switch and a suction control knob for
suction adjustment between 0 to 19.99 kPa (0 to 2.90 psi), minimum of 15.7 LPM at maximum.
