Laerdal Compact Suction Unit (LCSU) 4

The Laerdal Compact Suction Unit (LCSU) 4 suction unit combines rugged design with lightweight portability, an essential tool for every first responder.

Compact

Introduced in 1969 – now more than 50 years of leading suction innovation, the LCSU 4 is our most advanced compact unit. Weighing only 1.5 kg and having a flow rate of 30 liters per minute, the LCSU 4 is the perfect tool for first responders and medical personnel. The disposable canister that clicks in place removes the hassle of external tubing that could slow down the rescue process.

Powerful

With power ranging from 50-550 mmHg, this portable suction unit can be used on all patients, from newborns to adults. With the pediatric range indicator and LED display, the LCSU 4 makes suctioning in the most difficult situations, easier.

The LED display combined with the ”Large clicking knob” ensures increased control, and enables the provider to give the appropriate care, even wearing large gloves.

Reliable

The Laerdal Compact Suction Unit 4 provides great flexibility to meet all of your suctioning needs. The LCSU 4 can transition from the 300 ml configuration to the 800 ml configuration in less than a minute. The LCSU 4 gives you the ability to suction with 300 ml capacity and 800 ml capacity with a battery life of 45 minutes free flow suction, allowing providers to tackle the toughest challenges.
