What to do if my Medist MEVACS M90 Medical Equipment has inadequate sucking?

  Michael GomezAug 4, 2025
  If you notice inadequate sucking with your Medist Medical Equipment, it could be due to several reasons. First, check for damaged or incorrectly set up hoses and ensure they are properly connected. Another reason could be a glazed or damaged filter, which would need to be replaced. Also, inspect connectors, O-rings, or the gasket on the vessel lid for damage and replace the vessel lid if necessary. Finally, a damaged vessel with ripped or torn boundaries should be replaced. Leakage into the vacuum pump or inner suction perimeter can also cause inadequate sucking.

Why vacuum pump engine of Medist MEVACS M90 does not operate?

  Mary RoyAug 18, 2025
  If the vacuum pump engine of your Medist Medical Equipment isn't operating, there are a few things you can check. First, make sure the power switch is in the 'I' position. Ensure the power cord is properly connected to the instrument. If it still doesn't work, inspect the fuses and replace them if necessary. If none of these steps work, the air pump engine might be damaged, and you should call a service technician.
