Procedure

Part A: Install the Vacuum Housing Power Cable

  1. Put on proper PPE.
  2. Shutdown the Panther System and PC.
  3. Unplug the power cable from the system.
  4. Remove the vacuum module and place on a sterile, clean workbench.
  5. ClosedRemove all ten M5x10 screws from the front cover. Remove the front cover from the housing ( carefully guide the cables through the hole in the upper left corner of the cover).

  6. ClosedRemove the other ten M5x10 screws from the upper and lower part of the housing.

  7. ClosedSlide the inner housing out.

  8. Remove the Neoprene tubing from the vacuum to allow access to the muffler.
  9. ClosedRemove the four M6x8 screws underneath the inner housing.

  10. ClosedNote the fan on top of the housing is routed into the back of the pumps, where it is connected to the PCB. Tilt the pumps forward to access the PCB connections.
    Caution—Connector crimps are fragile. Do not allow tension on the cables!!!

  11. ClosedDisconnect the vacuum housing power and vacuum control connectors from the Vacuum Pump PCB.

  12. ClosedRemove the vacuum housing power, and control cable and grommet from the vacuum housing.

  13. Connect the new vacuum power and control cables to their respective connectors on the vacuum PCB.
  14. ClosedRoute the new cable out of the housing through the two clips and install grommet.

  15. ClosedReturn muffler to original position and screw into place with a 3mm hex driver.

  16. ClosedInstall the Neoprene tubing back onto the pumps. Ensure they are in the configuration pictured below.

  17. Reinstall the inner housing back into the outer housing.
  18. Reassemble the outer housing.

Part B: Install +24V Vacuum Power Cable

  1. ClosedPull the waste drawer as far out as possible to allow access to the cable panel and power supply at the back of the system.

  2. ClosedPull the cable chase off of the system.

  3. ClosedOn the back of the system, use a 3mm hex driver to loosen the four screws attaching the power supply to the system.

  4. ClosedFrom the left side of the system, lift up on the power supply and pull to remove the power supply from the rear of the system.

  5. ClosedUse a 3mm hex key to unscrew the screws on the power supply posts.

  6. ClosedRemove the two lugs connected to the current vacuum power cable.
    In this example they are the black and red cables with red housing.
    Remove vacuum power cable from system. Screen shot below for reference only. Your cable type might differ.

  7. ClosedNext connect the new power cable lugs to power supply with the 3mm hex key and screws.

  8. ClosedRoute the new power cable through cable panel area. If necessary, use zip ties to hold cables in place.

  9. ClosedReattach cable panel once all wires are secured in cable panel housing.

  10. Close the waste drawer.
  11. Reinstall the vacuum housing module.
  12. Reinstall the Universal Fluid Drawers.
  13. Plug in the Panther Power cable.

Verification

  1. Power on the Panther System and PC.
  2. Log in to the FSE shield.
  3. Open the Service Software.
  4. Initialize the Vacuum.
  5. Activate the Vacuum & Read the Vacuum pressure.
  6. Verify the vacuum is within specifications.
    The vacuum level must read between -203mbar and -270mbar and the vacuum pump speed must read above 1650rpm.
    If needed refer to Configuring the Quad Head Vacuum Pump Speed.
  7. Exit Service Software.
  8. Start Panther Main.
  9. Check Vacuum in Panther Main.
  10. PrimeClosedOperation of pumping fluid through tubing to ensure proper and consistent fluid delivery (remove air from the tubing, etc.). the system.
  11. Verify the Vacuum is within Specification:
    1. Maintains a vacuum level between 6inHg and 8inHg.
    2. Verify that exhaust is flowing through the rear vent (serial #00281 and higher) or through the routed tubing (serial #00280 and lower).
  12. Shutdown and restart the Panther System and PC in Customer Mode and return to customer.
