Spectra 3 (single breastpump)

Dapatkan Spectra 3 (single breastpump) di Eshop Dunia Susu Ibu.

Product Explanation:

Spectra 3 is ideal for home AND office use. The advantages are: very quiet, long life span, rhythmic suction (mimics baby’s sucking rhythm – very comfortable to use), adjustable suction, simple to use, dual pumping option. Accessories (breast shield, tubing) are separable so it’s easy to wash and sterilize. Its light weight and compact design make it extremely portable and good to use in a small space. It can easily be converted into a double pump (you only need to get an extra breast shield and tubing which cost RM70.00-please click here for Spectra Breast shield product page ).

This set contains:

  • Pump motor/body
  • 1 conversion kit for wide neck bottles
  • 1 Breast shield set and tubing only.

How it works

The kit applies the piston and cylinder using electrical motor power creating suction power. The suction cycle is similar to baby’s natural sucking.

How to use

  • Clean the kit.
  • Connect the power.
  • Connect the tubing to the breast shield.
  • Assemble the bottle onto the breast shield.
  • Set the suction power to the lowest position.
  • Set the nipple in the center of the breast shield
  • Turn the unit on.
  • Adjust the suction strength properly.
  • Turn the kit off after using

For double pumping, remove the small grey cap and connect an extra tubing and breast shield to the pump motor. For Medela pump users, you may use your existing Medela breast shield and only need to get an extra Spectra tubing which costs RM15 only.

(Important: When pumping, make sure that there is no backflow (milk getting into tubing). To avoid this, please make sure that the breast shield is not tilted, the tubing must be dry AND the blue valve head is fixed on properly.)

How to clean

Take all the parts of breast shield apart and boil them for 2~3 minutes except the air tube. Do not use a microwave oven.
Caution: Do not use a microwave oven.
Storage of breast milk

Though it’s best that you breastfeed your baby directly, you can store your milk for feeding later if you can’t breastfeed your baby.

Kept at room temperature Refrigerated (3~4 C) Frozen
4 hours 48 to 72 hours 3 months

How to feed the frozen milk

  • Put it in the refrigerator for one night before you feed it. It normally takes 12 hours to defrost it in the refrigerator.
  • Thaw and/or heat under warm, running water.
  • Shake it well when it is separated into cream and milk layer.
  • Let your baby finish the bottle at a feeding if possible, and do not store it again for another feeding.
  • IMPORTANT: Don’t store it again if you thaw it.

Trouble shooting

1. Check if the plug is in.
2. Check if every pump part is assembled correctly.
3. Check if the tubing is not twisted.
4. Check if the vacuum regulator valve of the motor part, membrane and the tubing is connected properly.
5. Check if there is space between the valve head and membrane. (Remove foreign substances, if any, between them)
