    INSTALLATION The model 3930 regulator is supplied with a high flow bubble barb for attachment to wall suction. Only braid reinforced tubing suitable for suction service should be used when connecting this to a central suction supply. Inappropriate tubing could lead to a reduction in flow and compromise patient safety. The tubing should exit the fitting in a downward vertical orientation to minimize the possibility of kinking the supply tubing over time.

    OFF: With control valve in the OFF position, suction is off and the collection circuit is returned to atmospheric pressure by an internal vent port, a special feature of the Boehringer design. Any additional positive pressure or negative pressure in excess of 100mmHg will be vented from the patient collection circuit.
