How does the galvanized mesh support the filter?
The galvanized mesh serves as a rigid support structure for the soft, porous filter media. This ensures that the filter maintains its shape and integrity within the oil reservoir assembly, allowing for high-efficiency filtration.
Is this kit suitable for routine preventative maintenance?
Absolutely. The VPK197 is a key component often included in broader Vacuum PM Kits (such as RPI #VPK196 and #VPK200), making it an essential, versatile choice for your regular equipment maintenance schedule.
Will this filter media fit into my existing reservoir?
The kit is specifically engineered to fit the lid of the Oil Reservoir Assembly on DENTAL-EZ Bison 3 systems. It is manufactured to meet the high standards required for dental equipment, ensuring a precise fit.
How do I keep track of when to replace this?
To help you stay on top of your maintenance schedule, the kit conveniently includes a PM sticker, which you can use to mark the date or interval of your most recent filter replacement.
Is the material quality professional grade?
Yes, RPI manufactures this kit to meet the strict standards required for dental equipment maintenance. The filter media is designed for high efficiency, and the mesh is galvanized to prevent degradation in the oil environment.

Certainly. If you require technical assistance regarding the installation or use of the VPK197 kit, you can reach out for support by calling (800) 221-9723.
Are there different sizing options available?
No, this product is a standardized, single-kit solution specifically designed for the DENTAL-EZ Bison 3 vacuum unit. This eliminates guesswork and ensures you have the exact match for your machine’s requirements.
What is the primary function of the filter media?
The fibrous, porous filter media is engineered to restore the integrity of the oil reservoir assembly by catching impurities and replacing saturated or worn components, which helps maintain the overall efficiency of your vacuum system.
