Unscripted Water Clog Fix!

[@kpharm2]

Thanks for the helpful videos! Where do you buy those filters? Can you get a hardware store or are the dental specific?

[@DentalEquipmentRepairChannel]

They are a DCI Part #7253.

I'm having the same issue in a delivery unit that isn't hard plumbed. It has the onboard refillable water jugs. I can't find an in-line filter anywhere. Do you have any suggestions?

[@hama4291]

Wow such a small filter I don't like that, and I would clean the brass parts with ceramic toilet cleaner as it works best on water clogs and doesn't affect the brass as I can see the brass is typically a bit greenish inside, cheers.

I do use acidic cleaners sometimes on autoclave parts and dental vacuum parts. This repair was in the field, so I had the bare minimum onhand.

so this is only possible when running city water?

[@DentalEquipmentRepairChannel]

@@mathiasgonzalez1849 you can get this happening when there is a pinched line or a clog. Trace the line back and see where you have normal pressure. A common culprit is a one-way check valve.

my dental chair suction piece is bringing out air instead of sucking what can i check

[@DentalEquipmentRepairChannel]

I'm not sure what you are describing. The air water syringe? The saliva ejector? The High volume evacuator?
