Dale ACE 475 Legacy Connector

Description

The Dale ACE* Connector *(Access Controller for Enteral-Legacy Type) minimizes the risk of messy leaks, and protects the clinician from potentially infectious gastric splash-back, while shielding the patients from external contamination. The Dale ACE Connector controls fluid flow into and out of most NG type feeding tubes, Dobbhoff, Levin, Salem Sump, Suction Tubes, 18 French PEG, 18 French PEJ, and most 18 French G-J Gastrostomy tubes. The ACE Connector replaces 5-in-1 connectors and enteral feeding Y-port universal adapters.

The ACE 475 Legacy Connector features
• In-line feeding, suctioning, irrigation, gastric residuals and medication delivery without the need to disconnect an NG tube and Feeding administration set
• A built-in needleless syringe port seal is unique in the industry and it accepts most catheter tip 50 – 60cc Legacy Type syringes
• A simple ON/OFF handle that is simple to understand and operate
• A long-lasting silicone adapter, preassembled within the package

The Ace 475 Connector fully supports a closed system, as long as it is connected to a sealed feeding administration set
The design of the ACE 475 Connector is linear, preventing components from potential snags on patient or caregiver clothing.
The ACE utilizes no separate (loose) med port caps, preventing any potential choking hazards
The ACE 475 barbed distal connector has sufficient bite to retain NG/Gastrostomy tubes securely, yet it can be disconnected with ease

• Salem Sump™
• Levin tubes
• Dobbhoff tubes
• PEG tubes,18 French and larger
