How a suction system is installed, from sizing to commissioning.
We size the pump from operatory count and procedure type. Typical figure is 60-80 l/min per chair with a simultaneity factor of 0.7 for general practice.
Pump placed in a service room with ventilation and drain access. Inlet positions marked at each chair against the manufacturer chair drawing.
Suction lines run with continuous 1% fall, swept bends only, and access points at each direction change. Pipe sizes stepped down toward the chairs.
Pump, separator, and amalgam unit mounted and connected. Electrical termination, drain trap, and exhaust line completed.
Vacuum measured at each chair (typically 180-220 mbar at the cannula), leak test on the network, separator alarm tested, and staff shown the daily flush routine.
