A simple touch delivers increased performance or reduces the noise level.
The smooth, single-piece hood design facilitates cleaning, and the materials can withstand potent disinfection agents.
The CleanTouch on/off button on the housing lets the person operating the pump switch it on and off with a simple touch: there are no gaps or grooves, which means there is less risk of contamination.
The pump can be conveniently placed in endoscopy towers, at the patient's bedside or in the operating theater as a rack, portable suction unit or mobile version.
