Rinse water lines
Microorganisms can grow in the water lines of the dental treatment unit.
Use a large amount of water for rinsing the lines prior to starting patient
appointments.
➢ Flush the cuspidor for at least one minute.
5.3.2
Purge water lines (purge function)
To reduce the amount of germs, the water lines of the water-carrying
instruments of the dentist element and the SPRAYVIT M multifunctional
syringe of the dentist and assistant element can be purged with water.
For the purge function, individual instruments are removed from their
holders and held over the cuspidor for purging. If your dental treatment
unit is not equipped with a cuspidor, hold the instruments over a
watertight container with sufficient capacity. The water lines of all
removed instruments are then purged simultaneously. Press the water
key on the SPRAYVIT M unit for purging.
It is also possible to purge the water lines automatically, see "Purging
water lines automatically (autopurge function)" [ → 213].
Preparation
The following preparations should be made before you begin to purge the
water lines.
1. If your dental treatment unit is equipped with a cuspidor, activate the
cuspidor flushing for at least one minute. This flushes the water lines.
2. Set all of the instruments to be purged to their maximum water flow
rate.
3. Place all instruments in their instrument holders.
