Installing Your BluTube® Dental Unit Water Purification Cartridge

Dental unit waterline contamination requires an efficient and effective treatment solution. That's BluTube®.

Installing your BluTube cartridge is a simple process. Simply follow the steps in the BluTube QuickStart Guide and this video:

1. PREP
:
Practicing aseptic technique, remove the dark blue vinyl shipping caps from both ends of the BluTube cartridge. Then, remove the water bottle from the dental unit manifold and disconnect the dental unit water heating system if applicable. Twist on the female luer lock into the male end of the BluTube cartridge.

2. MEASURE
:
Place the BluTube and water bottle alongside the manifold uptake tube. Align the bottom BluTube near the bottom of the water bottle, allowing enough space (1/4”) between them so the bottom of the BluTube will not touch the bottom of the bottle once installed. Then, cut the uptake tube at the top of the BluTube cartridge (not including the female luer lock).

3. CONNECT
: Utilizing the luer lock, connect the BluTube to the cut end of the uptake tube. Reattach the water bottle to the manifold. Set the air pressure to 45psi. Operate the dental unit instruments until all air is purged from the water system. Once installed, stick the 6-month replacement indicator on your water bottle or maintenance calendar. Activate by pressing firmly on bubble.

Additionally, use the included automatic chemical indicator to know when to replace each BluTube cartridge at 6 months.
