CONTAINER WITH HYDROPHOBIC VALVE DISPOSABLE CONTAINERS FOR SUCTION APPLICATIONS

FLOVAC® DISPOSABLE CONTAINERS SYSTEM FOR THE COLLECTION OF SUCTIONED FLUIDS FLOVAC® disposable containers are designed and manufactured for “high flow and high vacuum" applications in medical suction field to collect the organic fluids. This system is the best expression of safety, practicality and simplicity of use, both for the operators and for hospital plants and environment, thanks to the use of absolutely reliable manufacturing materials. The hermetic lid sealing makes the disposal procedure particularly hygienic, simple and safe for the patient and for the staff charged to remove and...

PRACTICALITY SAFETY SIMPLICITY GRANTED BY THE FOLLOWING STRONG POINTS: Disposable and closed system to prevent any contamination to the plant, to the patient and to the medical staff. Different ports size to avoid any connection mismatch. Easy identification of the ports thanks to color code and ports function engraved on the lid. Anti-reflux system to prevent patient and operator to come in touch with contaminated fluids in case of spillage through the ports happening during the hose disconnection. An optional non-return valve on the PATIENT port is also available for additional safety in...

FLOVAC® LINER The FLOVAC® LINER consists of a soft bag hermetically welded to a rigid lid. LINERS are available in 3 capacities and they work when inserted in the related PC reusable and autoclavable rigid containers. L I N E R S c a n b e su p p lie d i n dif fe r e n t configurations: liner only, liner with prefilled gelling kit, liner with 1.8 m hose, liner with 1.8 m hose and vacuum breaker. The FLOVAC® LINER has a soft but extremely resistant bag [ picture 01 ], allowing an easy extension by the operator, highly simplifying the insertion of the same into the supporting jar while...

FLOVAC® CANISTER The FLOVAC® CANISTER is a complete disposable system. It consists of a single-use rigid canister coupled with a lid hermetically fixed on it thanks to spring clips preventing any accidental opening. The FLOVAC® CANISTER when fastened to the lid by the operator, becomes a complete sealed container to be disposed after the use. CANISTERS are available in 4 capacities and they can be supplied in different configurations: canister only, canister with 1.8 m hose, canister with 1.8 m hose and vacuum breaker. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS AVAILABLE CAPACITIES JAR MATERIAL 02...

The lids are different between the LINER version, having the collection bag welded and integrated, and the CANISTER version, where the lid is a cover able to get complete sealing when firmly placed and connected onto the jar. Connect the PATIENT hose for the suction procedure. Plug to close the PATIENT port before disposal. In both FLOVAC® versions all connections and handling devices are concentrated on the lid. PATIENT and VACUUM ports (one male and the other female, to avoid any misconnection), the TANDEM port, the handle to help the bag removal after use (LINER version) and for easy...

TANDEM PORT HOW TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF SUCTIONED FLUIDS COLLECTION BY CONNECTING IN CASCADE MORE CONTAINERS According to the fluid volume expected to be suctioned, the system gives 3 options of sizes. In case the volume is exceeding the maximum size available, it is possible to increase the capacity through the TANDEM port. This allows the cascade connection of two or more containers, increasing dramatically the system collection capacity. Example of the connection in cascade of two or more identical devices to increase the collection capacity.

IN DETAIL FLOVAC® HYDROPHOBIC CANISTER LID FIXING - The FLOVAC® container lid in the CANISTER version fits 5 spring clips to grant a permanent and safe fastening to the rigid jar to prevent any leakage and the accidental opening. Never try to reopen the container when lid placed and clips fastened. An eventual second closing cannot guarantee sealing and prevent accidental opening. PATIENT PORT - The PATIENT port allows the suction of fluids containing bones fragments, once the elbow connector is removed. VACUUM CONNECTOR - The vacuum source coming from the plant or from an electrical...

WHY HYDROPHOBIC FILTER AND HOW DOES IT WORK? The FLOVAC® HYDROPHOBIC filter is made of 3 layers having antibacterial, smoke filtration and hydrophobic functions. The filter GORE® Microfiltration Media for Surgical Suction stops the suction when wet because the fluid reaches the maximum collection level. In normal suction conditions the filter works with the maximum of efficiency, granting a bacterial protection towards the hospital vacuum plant or other suction sources. It becomes like an impenetrable barrier, when wet, stopping the suction also when foams or surgical smokes have been...

GELLING KIT The gelling kit gives further safety to an highly efficient system. It is a special absorbing powder transforming liquids in a semi-solid mass. This grants higher safety for operators charged to clean, handle and transpor t potentially infected materials. This process allows to absorb and incorporate all liquids suctioned in the FLOVAC® containers and to prevent dangerous contamination risks for the health staff in case of biological fluids accidental leakage. The correct necessary quantity of gelling powder is supplied in small water-soluble pouches, already inserted into the...
