2.3 Product properties

Hazards of persons due to improper handling
• Only use the device for its intended purpose.
• Never use the device for aspiration in the low vacuum range (e.g.
thoracic drainage).
Damage to the device due to improper handling
• Never aspirate flammable, corrosive or explosive liquids or gases.
• Do not drop the device.
• Do not operate the device in case of apparent housing damage.
The secretion aspirator Allegra M30 is an especially handy, battery-
operated medical aspiration device for mobile and stationary use.
The secretion aspirator Allegra M30 has a flow rate of max.
30 l/min ± 2 l/min (see section 7 "Technical data").
The secretion aspirator Allegra M30 is operated via the internal battery or
via the supplied power supply unit that can also be used to recharge the battery. A
rotary vane pump generates the desired vacuum.
After 5 minutes of operation, the device switches off automatically to prevent
overheating. The device should be left switched off for at least 5 minutes to ensure
sufficient cooling of the device. In emergency situations, however, it is possible to
switch the device back on immediately several times.
Moreover an overheating protection prevents the battery from overheating by inter-
rupting the charging process if the temperature of the battery is too high (e.g. due to
unfavorable environmental conditions).
After it is switched on, the vacuum pump generates a vacuum in the secretion
canister, which is used to aspirate secretion (via a suitable sterile aspiration set). The
aspirate is directed away from the patient and collected in the secretion canister.
If the secretion canister is full, the aspiration is stopped by means of a mechanical
overflow protection integrated into the lid of the secretion canister.
The desired vacuum is set by buttons in the control panel (fig. 1(B), see section
1.2.2)). The secretion canister is attached by sliding it directly into the housing struc-
ture of the aspirator (fig. 8, 9). This also establishes the vacuum connection between
the aspirator and secretion canister.
The device is charged or operated via the supplied 12V power supply unit
(fig. 1(E)).
