Secretion canister 2 l
The secretion canister transfers the controlled vacuum
generated by the ATMOS S 201 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.
In the event of excess pressure the pop-off valve opens
immediately.
An optional water lock is used to visualize the air leak on
the patient's side by the appearance of air bubbles.
Cover caps are used for proper sealing and disposal.
Collection of fluids and air from the thorax.
Balancing the amount of fluid
Optional visualization of the air leak by the appearance of

The water lock is used as a one-way valve when using the
secretion canister and hose system (i.e. without a device)
for temporary gravity drainage.
