The KaVo MULTIflex Coupling 465 RN (Mat. no. 0.553.1600) and MULTIflex LUX Coupling 465 LRN (Mat. no. 0.553.1550) are medical devices intended for dental treatment by dental professionals. They serve as a crucial interface, transferring various media from a dental treatment center to dental instruments such as handpieces, turbine handpieces, air motors, scalers, and prophylaxis handpieces that are compatible with the MULTIflex LUX standard (DIN EN ISO 9168).
The primary function of the MULTIflex coupling is to facilitate the transfer of essential media: spray water, spray air, drive air, and return air. A built-in non-return valve is a key safety feature, preventing spray water from being suctioned back into the coupling and the hose system of the treatment center. The MULTIflex LUX coupling 465 LRN further enhances functionality by incorporating a built-in halogen lamp, providing illumination during dental procedures.

Lamp Specifications (for 465 LRN only):
General Specifications:
Transportation and Storage Conditions:
Sterilization Parameters: The medical device has a maximum temperature resistance of up to 138 °C (280.4 °F).
Connecting to the Hose: The coupling is designed to be securely plugged onto the turbine hose and fastened tightly with the union nut screw of the hose using the enclosed wrench. It is important not to grasp the regulating ring during this process to prevent product defects. For optimal performance, the O-rings on the supply hose should be sprayed with a small amount of KaVo Spray.
Attaching Instruments: Instruments are attached by pushing them to the rear until the coupling audibly locks into the medical device. Before each use, it is crucial to check for a secure fit by gently pulling on the instrument to prevent detachment during treatment. Inexact coupling should be avoided as it can reduce the service life of the lamp in LUX models.
Regulating Spray: The water supply can be regulated by rotating the spray ring on the MULTIflex coupling. Turning the spray ring clockwise reduces the water volume, while turning it anticlockwise increases it. The water volume can be adjusted through various stop positions.
Operation on KaVo Units (for 465 LRN only):
Reprocessing Steps (in accordance with ISO 17664): The device requires thorough reprocessing after each use to prevent infection. This includes:
Lamp Replacement (for 465 LRN only): If the high-pressure lamp needs replacement, allow it to cool down before handling. Unscrew the screw cap anticlockwise, remove the old lamp, and carefully insert the new one. Ensure contacts are not damaged.
O-ring Replacement: If O-rings are missing or damaged, they must be replaced. Stop working if O-rings are compromised. To replace, press the O-ring between fingers to form a loop, push it to the front, and remove. Insert new O-rings into the recesses and spray them with KaVo Spray. Do not use Vaseline or other grease/oil on O-rings.
Care Products and Systems: Do not service the medical device with oil or maintenance spray.
Packaging and Storage: After reprocessing, the medical device should be sealed separately in a sterile pack large enough to accommodate the product without stretching the packaging. Reprocessed products must be stored appropriately protected from light in a dry, dark, cool, low-germ room, adhering to the expiry date of sterilized items.
Service and Repair: Repairs, servicing, and safety checks must only be performed by trained service personnel (KaVo branch service technicians or KaVo authorized dealers). Only original KaVo spare parts should be used for repairs to maintain CE conformity and prevent injury. Non-KaVo parts may lead to product modification and loss of CE conformity, with responsibility shifting to the service company or operator. Regular servicing and function checks are recommended, with intervals defined based on frequency of use.
