High performance, high quality, single piston portable foot-operated suction pump
For pharyngeal and tracheal aspiration, and other minor medical procedures
Piston, with diaphragm valve, is sealed with removable elastic O-ring
Large stable base is entirely fit with anti-slip, preventing the pump from gliding-away while in use
Vacuum, maximum: - 70 kPa (ca. - 700 mbar)
Pedal movement generates suction every time it’s depressed
Integrated spring, returns the pedal to its initial ready-to-use position
Lever minimises pedal force required to reach maximum flow
For operator’s comfort, pedal should support at least 20 cm of the foot, and distal-end displace maximum 9-11 cm
Container is transparent, allowing assessing collected volume
Wide opening at the top of the container allows for easy and thorough cleaning
