CAUTION
!
• The suction control knob must be completely pushed in to adjust
the vacuum level.
• The PTS unit contains a dual spring regulator module to regulate
and adjust suction which is precise in the critical care range (0-200
mmHg/26.7 kPa) and quickly moves to full wall vacuum for resus-
citation. Unlike some other Ohio Medical vacuum regulators, the
PTS requires only two turns from zero to full wall vacuum.
• PTS units are shipped from Ohio Medical set at 100 mmHg and
require 1-1/2 turns to maximum.
• Failure to follow these cautions may damage the vacuum regulator.

The Pre-Use Checkout Procedure must be performed

cedure, it must be removed from service and repaired
