Description
The AG Disposable Suction Canister is an 800cc disposable collection canister with a white lid and a float valve that shuts off suction when the canister fills. Users rarely think about this part until it is overdue, and by then the suction aspirator machine is usually already showing it. It is a small part with an outsized say in how reliably the suction aspirator machine performs between services.
- 800 cc Capacity – The 800 cc (800 mL) canister gives the suction aspirator a full service interval of collection room.
- Protective Lid – The shut-off lid stops collected fluid at the canister, before it can reach the filter or the pump.
- AG Filtration Pedigree – Drawn from decades of medical filtration work, not adapted from an industrial catalog.
- Disposable Format – Sold individually for the suction aspirator, replaced rather than reprocessed between patients.
Protecting the Pump Behind the Canister
This canister is an 800cc disposable collection canister with a white lid and a float valve that shuts off suction when the canister fills. Collection is the first stage of the suction path, and the canister's job is to hold what the machine draws while its lid keeps that fluid out of everything downstream. On the suction aspirator, the lid's shut-off stops the fill at a safe level, which is what protects the filter and the pump behind it. It is disposable by design, replaced between patients rather than reprocessed, which is the infection-control standard for suction collection. It is offered in each and case forms for the suction aspirator, so stocking matches how the aspirator is actually serviced.
Features and Benefits
Fit and Function
- 800 cc Collection Capacity: Holds a full service interval of aspirated fluid for the suction aspirator, so collections are not interrupted mid-care.
- Protective Shut-Off Lid: The shut-off lid stops fluid at the canister, the first protection the pump and filter get.
Ownership and Care
- Disposable Hygiene: Replaced rather than reprocessed between patients, the infection-control standard for suction collection.
- Specialist Manufacture: Made by AG Industries, a filtration manufacturer since 1982, and its suction collection line is built to the same standard as its filters.

Why the Barrier in the Line Deserves a Specialist
Between the canister and the pump there is no room for a doubtful part. The AG Disposable Suction Canister is an AG Industries filter, built by a company that has specialized in medical filtration since 1982. Its rated media and secure fit are what that specialization buys.
- Specialist Manufacture – Filtration is AG's core business since 1982, and the shut-off lid canister is a core catalog part, not a sideline.
- Pattern-True Fit – Built to the suction aspirator pattern at its shut-off lid end, so the swap is a like-for-like change with no adapting.
- Service-Life Value – On the suction aspirator, the cheap canister is the one that fits: no callbacks, no early replacement.
- One Trusted Source – AG's catalog covers this canister and the rest of the suction aspirator wear list, one manufacturer across the maintenance list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the bacteria filter protect?
Mounted in the line of the suction aspirator at its canister's hydrophobic filter connection, it keeps bacteria, virus particles and aspirated fluid on the patient side. The pump behind the canister's hydrophobic filter stays clean because the filter does the stopping.
How is this filter rated?
AG rates the media in this canister's hydrophobic filter part at over 99.999% bacterial and viral filtration efficiency. AG's own catalog prints the rating for this canister's hydrophobic filter part.
How do I know which connection I need?
This listing's connection is the canister's hydrophobic filter connection for the suction aspirator path. Match the canister's hydrophobic filter to your machine's port and your tubing's barb sizes before ordering, because suction fittings are not universal.
Are the canisters reusable?
Canisters in the suction aspirator line are single-patient disposables by design, as is the inline filter that guards them. The shut-off in the lid protects the suction aspirator pump behind the canister's hydrophobic filter connection as the canister fills, and the whole unit is replaced when the service is done.
Is this an AG part or the machine maker's part?
AG Industries makes it, as an aftermarket part patterned for the suction aspirator at its canister's hydrophobic filter connection. AG's own catalog is the source for this canister's hydrophobic filter part's specifications.
