Suction Pinch Valve

Caution
To avoid injury to surgical personnel, keep fingers away from the suction pinch valve.
When closed, the valve pinches off suction flow to the handpiece:
• When priming the irrigation system
• When pressing the Fast Flush pedal
• In Run Status, when you release the Vibration pedal. In this case, the pinch
valve closes for about one second, then re-opens.
• In Lap Mode, when you release the Vibration pedal. This suction stoppage
prevents depletion of the pneumoperitoneum.
The suction pinch valve default position (system off) is closed. If the System has
been running, when you turn the Power Switch off, the suction pinch valve
remains open until the drain cycle has finished, then closes. A button on the front
of the suction pinch valve allows you to open the valve manually.
