Abstract:
A medical/surgical waste collection rover includes a first waste container disposed on a portable cart and receiving waste under the influence of a vacuum. A fluid measuring system includes a float element disposed within the first waste container, and a controller causing liquid in a reservoir disposed on the cart to prefill the first waste container and subject the float element to an initial lifting to a zero point level. The fluid measuring system determines a volume of contents within the first waste container based on a position of the float element relative to the zero point level. The fluid measuring system may include a sensor rod extending through the first waste container and a second waste container disposed on the cart and separated from the first waste container by a transfer valve. Methods of estimating the volume of liquid and/or medical/surgical waste within the waste container are also provided.

Claim (Index 2):
The medical/surgical waste collection rover of  claim 1 , further comprising a prefill pump in electronic communication with said controller, and in fluid communication with said reservoir and said first waste container with said controller configured to operate said prefill pump to cause the liquid in said reservoir to prefill said first waste container.
