Vario 18 System Overview
Versions Vario 18
Quiet, reliable performance
The low noise level of this suction pump keeps staff focused on the task at hand wherever suctioning takes place. Stressful situations require an easy setup and handling – both needs are met with the Vario 18 pump.
Variable vacuum levels make Vario 18 indispensable in hospitals – simply adjust the vacuum by pushing down the button and turning it. Not only are settings precise, but the safety push-button also prevents accidental re-adjustment.
The battery versions can be used for portability, patient transport or in areas with no power sockets.
Hospitals already using a Medela fluid collection system do not need to purchase a new set – the Vario 18 can be equipped with either the Reusable (RCS) or Disposable Collection System (DCS).
