2.1 System Controls

The electronic system controls on the PlumeSafe Smoke Evacuation System(s) are easy to understand

and simple to use. The membrane control panel contains the suction on/off switch, suction power

adjustment, filter life indicator, and service indicator light. See Figure 1.

Note: Please be sure to read all instructions before installing accessori es or operating this

equipment. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit and/or personal injury.

• SUCTION ON/OFF & Standby

There are two ON/OFF switches on the PlumeSafe Smoke Evacuation System(s). The ON/OFF

switch that completely disables the electrical power to the unit is located on the back or side of

the unit. The suction ON/ OFF switch on the electronic membrane control panel is located in the

upper right hand corner of the mem brane panel. To power up the machine, place the power

switch on the rear or side of the machine in the ON position and press the suction ON/OFF switch

on the membrane panel until the suction control lights illuminate. Place the unit in “standby” by

pressing the suction ON/OFF membrane switch to the OFF position. Turn the sy stem main

power off by placing the power switch on the back of the system in the OFF position.

• SUCTION CONTROL

(Membrane Control Panel)

The amount of suction may be adjusted by pressing the UP and DOWN Arrow keys. Pressing the

UP arrow button increases suction and pressing the DOWN arrow button decreases suction. The

suction control should be set at the lowest pract ical setting to c ompletely remove the surgical

smoke from the operative site. Each time either arrow button is pressed, the suction will increase

or decrease by 10%. When two lights are lit on the suction flow indicator, the actual air flow is

the value between the two illuminated percentages.

• FOOTSWITCH / REMOTE SWITCH ACTIVATOR (Membrane Control Panel)

The PPS604 Smoke Evacuation System also comes equipped with a pneumatic footswitch.

A footswitch or a Remote Switch activator may be added to any system by simply plugging in a

BUFFALO FILTER activation accessory into the appropriate jack on the back or side of the unit.

When the footswitch is plugged in, the unit m ay be turned on or off by depressing the footswitch

pedal once for each operati on. For footswitching operation, the suction switch on the m embrane

control panel should be in the ON position. For directions on using the Remote Switch Activator,

please see instructions that accompany that product.
