Accessories: Smoke Evacuator
The Smoke Evacuation System are designed to remove smoke and noxious
odors produced by surgical smoke during laser and electrosurgical
procedures.
The Smoke Evacuation Systems have been designed with a high suction,
high flow rate centrifugal action pump. The ultra-quiet motor is
used to draw the surgical smoke from the surgical site through the
vacuum tubing and into the filter where the surgical smoke is processed
by a series of filters. A single disposable filter is used to simplify
the installation and removal during filter changes. The filter is
completely enclosed to protect the healthcare personnel from potential
contamination during filter changes. One filter contains four different
stages within to decontaminate the smoke plume.
The first stage filtration is a prefilter whose function is to
trap and remove gross particulate and casual find.
The second stage filtration is a VSLI (Very Large Scale Integrated)
grade ULPA(Ultra Low Penetration Air) filter whose high-tech patented
(U. S. Patent#5874052) design captures particulates and micro-organisms
down to 0.012um ant an efficiency of 99.99995%. Each VLSI grade
ULPA filter is pretested and certified before use.
The third stage filtration uses the highest grade virgin activated
carbon, especially designed for for the removal and adsorption of
odors and toxic gases produced by burning tissues. These harmful
gases may constitute a health hazard to healthcare professionals
who are subjected to prolonged exposure. The activated carbon used
in the Smoke Evacuation Systems preferentially removes toxic organic
gases rather than water vapor and provides optimal odor removal.
The fourth stage filtration is an expanded foam and paper media
used to trap activated carbon fines from migrating out of the filter.
The first, second and fourth stages of the filter have been impregnated
with a chemical agent. The chemical agent has been applied with
a patented process that prevents the agent from being washed or
blown off the filter media.
The electronic controls on the face panel of the smoke evacuation
system has been designed “used friendly” and facilitate
unit set up and operation. Please refer to Section 2.0 for Operation
Instructions. |
