Near-Continuous Suction with Triple Power Sources
A surgical suction unit removes blood, mucus and surgical fluids from the field so the clinical team can maintain a clear working area. The ASKIR 36BR (VM-SSASKBR36) delivers 36 L/min at a maximum vacuum of -0.80 BAR (-80 kPa / -600 mmHg), a high-flow output suited to aspiration where sustained suction is critical. It is designed for near-continuous operation from three power sources: 230V AC mains, an integrated DC adapter and a 12V car battery. This triple-power configuration allows use in hospitals, ambulances and field environments without interruption to power supply.
Compact and Portable for Mobile Emergency Use
Weighing 4.39 kg and measuring 350 × 210 × 180mm, the ASKIR 36BR is compact enough for ambulance mounting and easy transport between settings. Its 12V car battery connection allows suction during patient transport when mains power is not available. It operates at 65.5 dB, a noise level suited to clinical and pre-hospital environments. It is CE certified and manufactured to European safety standards, and a front-panel vacuum regulator allows the operator to adjust suction to match the clinical need.
Reliable for Emergency and Surgical Settings
The ASKIR 36BR suits emergency departments, ambulances, general surgery and obstetrics, and any other setting requiring reliable high-flow suction with battery backup. Its near-continuous duty cycle minimises downtime between procedures. Available in South Africa from Vital Medical, the ASKIR 36BR is supplied to hospitals, ambulance services and emergency medical responders.
