Frequently asked questions
Does the canister have superior contamination protection?
Yes, the Bemis 1200cc Canister is specifically engineered for maximum protection against contamination and overflow through a sophisticated dual system:
- Dual Filter System: This sophisticated system combines a hydrophobic shutoff filter to prevent aerosol contaminants from escaping and a mechanical shutoff valve to actively stop flow when the canister reaches capacity.
- Overflow Prevention: The integrated shutoff mechanism ensures the suction unit stops immediately when the canister is full, preventing fluid backup and protecting the vacuum equipment from contamination.
- Leak-Free Design: The unit is equipped with a self-sealing lid that ensures a reliable, leak-free seal during use, handling, and transport.
Is the lid self-sealing to prevent leaks?
Yes, the lid of the Bemis 1200cc Suction Canister is self-sealing. This design ensures a leak-free environment during use, which is crucial for maintaining a clean and safe medical setting.
Does the high-quality lid feature multiple ports?
Yes, the Bemis 1200cc canister is equipped with a red, self-sealing lid made from durable polyethylene, ensuring a secure, leak-free containment of aspirated fluids.
This design prioritizes clinical versatility by featuring four clearly labeled ports:
- Vacuum Port: Connects to the external suction source.
- Patient Port: For patient tubing attachment.
- Tandem Port: Allows connection to a secondary canister for expanded capacity.
- Pour Spout: Facilitates controlled fluid disposal.
Furthermore, the package includes two elbow connectors to enhance tubing flexibility. The lid also houses the crucial dual filter system which prevents fluid overflow and contamination.

To aid in accurate fluid monitoring during procedures, the canister features:
- Clear Graduations: The body includes large, easy-to-read volume markings in cc (ml), allowing clinicians to precisely track volumes from 100 cc up to 1200 cc.
- High Visibility: Constructed from durable, high-impact polystyrene for clear viewing of the collected fluid.
- Labeling Panel: A frosted panel is incorporated on the canister body, providing a dedicated space for applying patient or procedure labels.
What durable materials are used for this canister?
The Bemis 1200cc canister is constructed from high-quality, durable materials suitable for demanding clinical environments:
