Quick answer: This is the Sunset Healthcare disposable suction canister (part RES023AW) — an 800cc (800 mL) transparent, graduated container that collects fluids and secretions during suctioning procedures. It has a float valve shut-off (so it won't overflow) and a sealing lid to prevent leaks, and it connects to a range of suction machines/aspirators. Single-use and disposable for hygiene. Used with tracheostomy care, post-surgical suctioning, and secretion management — in hospitals, clinics, and home care. Available as a single unit or a case of 48.
What's included

About this part
During suctioning, secretions and fluids are drawn away from the patient and must be collected safely — that's what the suction canister does:
- 800cc (800 mL) capacity — collects a useful volume of fluid/debris before it needs changing.
- Transparent & graduated — see and measure how much fluid is draining, for monitoring.
- Float valve shut-off — a float rises with the fluid and stops suction when the canister is full, preventing overflow into the machine.
- Sealing lid — a secure closure that helps prevent leakage or spillage during use and disposal.
- Single-use / disposable — no cleaning; discard per medical-waste guidelines for hygiene.
- Broadly compatible — connects to various suction systems/aspirators (including Sunset and Drive/DeVilbiss machines).
Part of a suction setup
A complete suction setup typically pairs the canister with suction tubing, a connector, a bacteria filter, and an elbow connector. Sunset offers these individually and as a suction kit (e.g. RES026-E: suction tubing RES025, connector RES024, bacteria filter, canister RES023, elbow RES028) — order the canister alone as a replacement, or the kit for a full set.
