GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Medezine 5000 Oscillating Saw with Vacuum Filtration has been developed to help
minimize the risk of cross infection in sensitive areas, providing it is used in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
The complete system comprises three basic units.
THE SAW UNIT
This unit is fed from the power supply. It is hermetically sealed allowing disinfection and
appropriate sterilization without dismantling. The enclosed motor cannot become contami-
nated , consequently there is no hazardous aerosol eect. All external materials used in its
construction are non corrosive.
THE FILTRATION UNIT
This unit is fed from the power supply. It gives highly ecient three stage ltration by way
of a paper lter, cloth lter and highly ecient cartridge lter (Hepa lter) respectively. It is
quite capable of ltering dry and partially damp material but must never be used to extract
liquids. This unit is not watertight and not designed for liquid extraction.
THE POWER SUPPLY
This unit is fed from the mains supply and in turn delivers the appropriate electrical cur-
rents to the saw unit and the vacuum ltration unit. The complete system is activated by the
momentary switch on the saw unit. An intelligent current limiting device (which resets itself
automatically) is incorporated in the power supply to prevent overload usage of the saw
unit. This unit is watertight.
User preference may require the equipment to be supplied in its basic form which
comprises the saw unit and power supply only. A ltration unit may be easily added by the
customer at a later stage.
The complete Medezine 5000 system is capable of handling health endangering dusts,
making it suitable for use in hospitals and industrial environments where the collection and
disposal of such debris is subject to stringent control.
This equipment is not suitable for use in an environment where an explosion risk is present.
The equipment should only be moved by using the handle provided and never by pulling
on the saw unit or mains lead.
