Water Line Requirements - DENTSPLY Cavitron Prophy-Jet Directions For Use Manual

SECTION 7:
Installation Instructions
Anyone installing a Cavitron
observe the following requirements and recommendations.

7.1 Water Line Requirements

• A water supply line with user-replaceable filter is
supplied with your system. See Section 10 System Care
for replacement instructions.
• Incoming water supply line pressure to the system must
be 20 psi (138 kPa) to 40 psi (275 kPa). If your dental
water system's supply line pressure is above 40 psi,
install a water pressure regulator on the water supply line
to your Cavitron Prophy-Jet
®
System.
• 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.
• In addition to the water filter supplied, it is recommended
that a filter in the dental water system supply line be
installed so that any particulates in the water supply will
be trapped before reaching the Cavitron system.
• 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 Cavitron
system.
• Incoming water temperature to the Cavitron System
should not exceed 25˚C (77˚F). If needed a device
should be installed to maintain a temperature within this
specification, or a Cavitron DualSelect Dispensing
System attached to allow this system to be operated
as a closed water system.
7.2 Air Line Requirements
& Recommendations
• An air supply line with a user-replaceable filter assembly
is supplied with your Cavitron
Prophylaxis System. Refer to Section 7.8 Air Supply Line
Connection.
• Incoming air supply line pressure to the system must
be 65 psig (448 kPa) to 100 psig (690 kPa). If your
office air line pressure is above 100 psig (690 kPa),
install an air pressure regulator on the supply line to your
Cavitron Prophy-Jet
® ®
• A manual shut-off valve on the office air supply line should
be used so that the air line can be completely shut-off,
and the line pressure relieved when the office is
unoccupied.
• The Cavitron System must be supplied with clean, dry
Prophy-Jet System should

air to help prevent water condensation from forming
in the air supply line which may cause it to malfunction.
In addition to the air filter supplied with your System, it
is strongly recommended that an air dryer be used on
the compressor line supplying the Cavitron System to
prevent moisture from reaching the System, which can
cause "caking" of the air polishing powder and
clogging of the lines and air polishing insert nozzle.
7.3 Electrical Requirements
• Incoming power to the system must be 100 volts AC to
240 volts AC, single phase 50/60 Hz capable of
supplying 1.0 amps.
• The system power should be supplied through the AC
power cord provided with your system.
• WARNING: To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment
must only be connected to a supply mains with protective
earth.
