A HYDROPHOBIC FILTER MUST BE USED TO PREVENT CONTAMINANT DAMAGE
TO THE PUMP. GLOBAL SURGICAL WILL NOT RECEIVE OR REPLACE ANY PUMP
WHERE THIS FILTER HAS NOT BEEN USED.

Extended use of alcohol or solvents may reduce the e󰀩ciency of the microporous
membrane of the HYDROPHOBIC FILTER. If these chemicals are used frequently, the
lter should be inspected and replaced more often than the recommended time.
CAUTION
!
Care should be used by all personnel coming into contact with suction equipment. Wear
