Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Phanpy Milk Collector Cups, consider the following:

• Reduced Suction:
  • Ensure all parts are correctly assembled and securely sealed. A loose connection can cause suction loss.
  • Check the duckbill valve for tears or damage. Replace if necessary.
  • Verify that the tubing is properly connected to both the cup and the pump unit, and that there are no kinks or blockages.
• Leaking Milk:
  • Confirm that the breast shield is properly sealed against the Newcup and that the top cover is securely in place.
  • Inspect the silicone flange and duckbill valve for any damage or wear that could compromise the seal.
  • Ensure the cup is not overfilled beyond its maximum capacity (6 oz / 180 ml).
  • When pouring, ensure the top cover is fully sealed to prevent spills.
• Discomfort During Pumping:
  • Ensure your nipple is centered in the flange.
  • If the 24mm flange feels too large, try using the included 20mm insert. Correct flange sizing is crucial for comfort and efficiency.
  • Adjust your breast pump's suction settings to a comfortable level.
