  • Pediatric Continuous/Intermittent Model: For pediatric use, with dual safety relief valves. Same dimensions and warranty.
Configuration and Accessories
Each model can be configured with various fittings for compatibility with medical facility fixtures. A configuration table is provided for selecting the appropriate model and fittings.
Product Overview
The document details specifications and configurations for suction regulators and collection canisters used in medical settings, including pediatric continuous/intermittent suction regulators, intermittent suction regulators, disposable collection canisters, and reusable collection bottle assemblies.
Specifications
  • Vacuum Gauge Scale: 0-150 mm Hg in 5 mm Hg increments.
  • Dimensions: 6.8" H x 2.65" W x 4.07" D (174 mm x 67 mm x 104 mm).
  • Weight: 1.3 lbs. (0.59 kg).
  • Warranty: 10 years.
Intermittent Suction Regulators
These regulators deliver intermittent vacuum only, ensuring constant suction is never delivered. They include an internal safety relief valve limiting vacuum to 170 mm Hg and a superior regulation mechanism for stable settings.
Disposable Collection Canisters
Available in various configurations, these canisters feature a unique filter and self-sealing material to improve flow and prevent fluid entry into the suction regulator. They come with DISS connections for easy attachment to wall suction regulators.
Reusable Collection Bottle Assemblies
Available in glass or polycarbonate, these include a positive shut-off cap and float assembly to prevent fluid carryover. Offered in sizes of 2800 ml, 1200 ml, 600 ml, and 473 ml.
Accessories
Includes disposable hydrophobic bacteria filters to protect the vacuum system from contamination, and various bottle holders and carriers for ease of use.
Configuration and Ordering
Configuration tables are provided for selecting the appropriate fittings and connections for different models, along with part numbers for ordering.

Vacutron® Suction Regulators-2

Vacutron® Suction Regulators by Chemetron® Chemetron has been a leader in suction regulators for more than 40 years. The Vacutron line offers safety and performance features unlike any other regulator on the market. Vacutron provides four distinct advantages over other suction regulators.  Superior Patient Safety Vacutron suction regulators have a secondary internal vacuum relief valve. This valve ensures that under no circumstance, i.e. component failure, can the vacuum pressure delivered to the patient exceed a pre-set safe level so the patient is not inadvertently exposed to the full line...

Vacutron® Suction Regulators-7

High Vacuum Continuous Model The high vacuum suction regulator is designed for procedures that require constant vacuum pressures in excess of 300 mm Hg. There are two operational modes: regulated suction and full line. Regulated suction allows the clinician to set the vacuum level between 0 and the vacuum line pressure. On full line mode, the vacuum pressure delivered is unregulated and equal to the vacuum line pressure. Key Features  Superior regulation mechanism ensures stable vacuum settings even with fluctuations in source vacuum  ISO configurations available Specifications Operating Modes:...
