5.5.9 Cleaning the filter insert of the wet suction device with
cuspidor valve
The automatic separator and amalgam separator / sediment container
or air jet pump are not installed in the water unit for standard wet
suction. The separation of air and water and amalgam separation are
performed centrally in this case.
In order to ensure that larger solid particles nevertheless cannot enter
the separating unit, the suction line in the water unit is equipped with a
filter. The filter insert must be cleaned when the suction power
decreases.
WARNING
Wear gloves when performing the following work.
Cleaning the suction system
Before the filter insert of the standard wet suction is cleaned, the suction
system should be cleaned
If the treatment center is equipped with the chemical suction hose
cleaning option, see "Cleaning the suction hoses" [→ 258]. If this option
is not available, see "Cleaning vacuum system using cleaning adapter
in the cuspidor or via external container" [→ 265].
Suctioning off remaining water completely, removing and cleaning
the filter insert
As long as the treatment center is switched on, water remains in the
suction line for technical reasons. Therefore, in order to clean the filter
insert, this water must be completely extracted beforehand. Otherwise
the remaining water will flow out when the filter housing is opened.
NOTE
The flushing and tumbler filling functions may not be activated when
the filter housing is open.
Otherwise, water could escape from the open filter housing.
➢ Do not switch the flushing and tumbler filling functions on
whenever the filter housing is open.
