Secretion canister 800 ml
The secretion canister transfers the controlled vacuum
generated by the ATMOS C 051 Thorax. Fluids and air are
drained through the secretion hose and collected in the
secretion canister. The amount of fluid in the secretion
canister can be read and documented on the balancing
scales. An integrated bacterial and viral filter protects the
device from possible contamination and from oversuction.
As a protection, the pop-off valve opens when there is
excess pressure in the secretion canister.
Cover caps are used for proper sealing and disposal.
