5.1 General Information

If the installation of your Cavitron BOBCAT Pro Ultrasonic
Scaler is performed by someone other than trained
DENTSPLY Distributor personnel or DENTSPLY Service
Technicians, care should be taken to observe the following
requirements and recommendations.

5.2 Water Line Requirements

• The Systemʼs water supply line is factory installed.
Do not disconnect it from the ultrasonic scaler.
• Incoming water supply line pressure to the ultrasonic
scaler must be 25 psi (172kPa) minimum to 60 psi
(414kPa) maximum. If your dental water systemʼs
supply line pressure is above 60 psi, install a water
pressure regulator on the water supply line to your
Cavitron BOBCAT Pro Ultrasonic Scaler.
• A manual shut-off valve on the dental water system
supply line should be used so that the water can be
completely shut-off when the office is unoccupied.
• A filter in the dental water system supply line is
recommended so that any particles in the water supply
will be trapped before reaching the ultrasonic scaler.
• After the above installations are completed on the
dental water supply system, the dental office water line
should be thoroughly flushed prior to connection to the
ultrasonic system.
• After flushing system verify there are no leaks.

much of the aerosol dispersion can be effectively
controlled and minimized. Please carefully follow the
procedural guidelines in this manual regarding the use

recommended prior to starting any dental procedure.
4.3 Water Supply Recommendations
It is highly recommended that all dental water supply
systems conform to applicable CDC (Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention) and ADA (American Dental
