It is a single-use clinical device utilized to safely collect respiratory, sputum, or fluid specimens using any standard suction pump or catheter system.
key Specifications & Design Features
- Pneumatic Tube Safe: The standout feature of REF 405 is the inclusion of an extra sterile transport cap. This cap is specifically engineered to replace the tubed suction cap after collection, preventing accidental line separation and leakages during high-velocity pneumatic tube transport or rough handling.
- Contamination Prevention: Equipped with a removable, disposable adaptor that guards the specimen against external contamination if connected to non-sterile suction tubing.
- Measurement Accuracy: Built from high-visibility, see-through plastic marked with clear 1cc graduations to accurately assess specimen volume.
- Kink-Resistant Tubing: Includes a 5-inch or 5.5-inch collapse-proof, heavy-walled flexible tube.
- Safe Handling: Manufactured completely latex-free to prevent patient and clinician allergic reactions. The screw-on cap protects the pouring lips to keep the surface sterile during fluid transfers.
- Patient Tracking: Features a designated write-on surface directly on the transparent vial to record crucial patient identification data.
- Standard Packaging: Typically distributed sterile in easy-to-peel envelopes as a case of 24 units
