The Gomco Model 6050 is supplied with two reusable 2800 ml polycarbonate collection bottles.

This generous, dual-bottle setup provides substantial volume for emergency and post-operative thoracic drainage procedures. Key features of the collection system include:

• Capacity: Two high-capacity 2800 ml bottles are included.
• Material: Constructed from durable, reusable polycarbonate.
• Safety Feature: An integrated water seal mechanism prevents aspirated air from re-entering the patient’s chest cavity, ensuring safety during operation.

Yes, the Gomco Model 6050 is equipped with a crucial safety mechanism: a water seal integrated directly within the collection bottle system.

This feature is essential during emergency thoracic drainage, as it prevents any aspirated air or fluids from re-entering the patient’s chest cavity.

The water seal is utilized by the two included 2800 ml reusable polycarbonate collection bottles, supporting the unit’s capability for simultaneously removing both fluids and air.

The Gomco Model 6050 is available in two AC-powered voltage configurations to suit various clinical environments:

• 115 V
• 220 V

Both configurations operate efficiently at a frequency of 50–60 Hz.

For enhanced safety and convenience in hospital settings, the unit is equipped with a durable 6-foot hospital-grade electrical cord, which features integrated storage.

Yes, the Gomco Model 6050 is designed for safety and regulatory compliance in critical hospital settings. It holds essential certifications and incorporates key protective features:

• Regulatory Compliance: The unit is UL/ETL Listed and has approvals from the FDA and HC (Health Canada), ensuring it meets strict electrical and medical performance standards.
• Patient Safety Mechanism: A critical safety feature is the integrated water seal within the collection bottle system. This mechanism actively prevents aspirated air and fluids from flowing back into the patient’s chest cavity during operation.
• Durable Design: The aspirator features a chemical-resistant flat stainless steel top for easy cleaning and enhanced durability, and is equipped with a 6-foot hospital-grade electrical cord for secure power connection.

Yes, the Gomco Model 6050 is designed for quieter operation in critical care settings. The aspirator’s turbine pump maintains a low sound level of less than 64 dBA during use.

Yes, the Gomco Model 6050 is engineered as a high-performance mobile aspirator, designed for rapid deployment and easy transport in hospital emergency and critical care settings. It features several characteristics that prioritize ease of movement and durability:
