Introduction
DiamondCare® Recessed Wall Outlets provide medical gas or vacuum services in
healthcare facilities having in-wall, piped, medical gas or vacuum distribution systems. A
wall outlet consists of a rough-in and a finish assembly, keyed to a specific medical
gas/vacuum service in order to avoid accidental cross-connection of services (see table 1-1
on page 1–6).
