The intended use of this electrically powered (diaphragm-type) suction device is to express milk from the breast.
Device Story
Luxmatic 12-15 ISC is a portable electric breast pump utilizing a diaphragm-type pump mechanism to provide suction. The device operates via a 12V DC power source (transformer or battery pack). It features an adjustable vacuum range of 150-220 mm Hg and an electronic sensor that regulates intermittent suction at approximately 30-45 cycles. An integrated optical sensor in the overflow bottle provides automatic motor shut-off if milk enters the overflow, preventing pump damage. The system includes breast shields, collection cups, and optional bacterial filters to prevent cross-contamination. The device is intended for single-patient use. Healthcare providers or patients use the device to facilitate milk expression; the automated shut-off and vacuum regulation ensure consistent operation and safety during use.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Safety and effectiveness are supported by bench testing, including electrical, mechanical, and environmental performance requirements per FDA 1993 Draft Reviewer Guidance and IEC-601-1-2 (1993) standards.
Technological Characteristics
Diaphragm-type suction pump; 12V DC power (transformer/battery); adjustable vacuum 150-220 mm Hg; electronic sensor for cycle control and overflow shut-off; optical sensor for liquid detection; bacterial filter; plastic breast shields/collection bottles. Materials meet 21 CFR 176, 177, 178 food-contact standards. Tested to IEC-601-1-1-2 (1993) for electrical safety.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the expression of breast milk in lactating women.

## 510(K) SUMMARY
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92.
The assigned 510(k) number is:_K971543
#### 1. Submitter's Identification:
KaWeCo GmbH Gerlinger Str. 36-38 71254, Ditzingen Germany
Date Summary Prepared: April 24, 1997
#### 2. Name of the Device:
Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump
#### Predicate Device Information: 3.
K#850705, White River Portable Electric Breast Pump, White River, Division of Natural Technologies, Inc.
#### 4. Device Description:
The Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump (suction device with a compressor unit) contains a diaphragm-type pump with a vacuum regulator (between 150mm Hg and 220mm Hg) which includes a soft silicone tube and plastic tubing. An accessory kit includes overflow safety bottles, plastic breast shields and a collection cup. The device is battery and line-powered for 12V DC by a transformer or utilizes a 12V battery pack. The device is controlled by an electric sensor with intermittent suction at approximately 30-45 cycles.
{1}------------------------------------------------
## EXHIBIT #1 Page 2 of 4 2971543
The overflow bottle contains an optical sensor, with an automatic shut off. The motor stops when liquid is sucked into the overflow. The pump can be used with Single Breast Pump Kit #281100 or Double Breast Pump Kit #281102. Dimensions are 7 X 12 X 7 inches and the weight is 4.5 lbs.
Suction is controlled by the pump automatically. It will automatically be released when the adjusted vacuum is reached. An electronic sensor is built-in for automatic motor shut off: If milk flows into the overflow bottle, the motor stops automatically at once and the inside valves from the pump cannot be damaged through the milk. A bacterial filter may be used between the overflow bottle and the pump to prevent cross infection when more than one patient is using the pump. Bacterial filters should be changed regularly.
#### 5. Intended Use:
ﺳ
The intended use of this electrically powered (diaphragm-type) suction device is to express milk from the breast.

#### 7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:
Testing information demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the Luxmatic 12a) 15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump in the intended environment of use is supported by testing that was conducted in accordance with the FDA November 1993 Draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions", DCRND, which outlined Electrical, Mechanical and Environmental Performance Requirements.
Testing was conducted on the Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump per IEC-601-1-2 (1993) (electrical isolation) and IEC 601-1-1-2 (1993). Testing met TÜV GS Germany requirements. The breastpumps were manufactured in series production and checked with TÜV GS approved

### samples.
None of the testing demonstrated any design characteristics that violated the requirements of the Reviewer Guidance or resulted in any safety hazards.
- b) Patient-contacting material includes both skin contacted material (breastcups) and milk contacting materials. 21 CFR Parts 176, 177 and 178 were reviewed in order to ascertain materials approved for food contact. Materials are approved for food contact.
#### 8. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:
Non-Applicable
#### 9. Conclusions:
The Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump has the same intended use, similar design and technology as the White River Portable Electric Breast Pump. As our comparison chart indicates, as well as our testing data, the Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, when compared to the predicate device, the Luxmatic 12-15 ISC Portable Electric Breast Pump does not incorporate any significant changes in intended use, method of operation, material or design that could affect safety or effectiveness.
