Heating the disinfectant solution
This section explains how to heat the disinfectant solution independently of the
reprocessing programs. The operation consists of heating disinfectant solution to
20qC (68qF) when the disinfectant solution temperature is below 20qC (68qF).
For details on how to incorporate the disinfectant solution heating in a
reprocessing program, see Section 6.3, “Setting the reprocessing programs” on
page 122.
When heating the disinfectant solution, disconnect the
connecting tubes from the equipment. Otherwise, disinfectant
solution may spout out of the connecting tubes, and leak
from the cleaning tub.
When heating the disinfectant solution, disconnect the leak
test air tube from the equipment and take it out from the
cleaning tub. Otherwise, disinfectant solution gets inside the
leak test air tube and the endoscope. This could cause them
malfunction.

You can set the number of days and the number of disinfection operations
between replacement of the disinfectant solution. The equipment indicates the
replacement timing when the set value for the elapsed days or operations is
reached. Note that this equipment does not automatically determine the age of
the disinfectant solution.
Be sure to check the concentration of the disinfectant
solution by using the separately available test strips. The
disinfectant solution counter does not precisely determine the
effectiveness of the disinfectant solution. The expiration of
the disinfectant solution varies depending on many factors
including the drain condition, the temperature of the
environment where the equipment is installed, and the
various types of endoscopes that have been reprocessed.
The disinfectant solution counter does not take these and
other factors into consideration.

Table 7.7
Disinfection of water supply piping is required in the following cases.
•
Before using this equipment for the first time (after installation of the
water filter).
•
Immediately after replacement of the water filter.
•
Whenever bacteria in the water supply piping is identified.
•
Before using the device when it has not been used for a long period.
The disinfectant solution stored in the equipment is used for disinfection of the
water supply piping.
Preparations before disinfection of water supply piping
Confirm the disinfectant solution concentration using the
test strip.
(See Section 3.8, “Inspecting the disinfectant solution’s
concentration level” on page 50.)
If disinfection effect is OK
If disinfection effect is No Good
Replace the disinfectant solution.
(See Section 7.12, “Replacing the disinfectant
solution” on page 176.)

Chapter 7 Routine Maintenance
•
Before disinfecting the water supply piping, check the
potency of the disinfectant solution with the test strip, and
replace the disinfectant solution if the disinfectant effect is
below the required level. If this check is not performed,
disinfection may be insufficient.
•
Disinfection of the water supply piping is required each time
the water filter is replaced (i.e., at least once a month). Since
bacteria may infect the pipes frequently depending on the
operating environment, perform microbiological examination
of rinse water and disinfect the water supply piping whenever
it seems necessary.
•
Disconnect the connecting tubes from the connectors on the
device before disinfecting the water supply piping. Otherwise,
a jet of disinfectant solution may be output from the
connecting tubes and leak from a connector such as the gas
filter case connector.
•
Before handling the disinfectant solution, read the
precautions carefully and use it as instructed. It is especially
important to know what to do if the disinfectant solution
comes in contact with your skin.
•
When handling the disinfectant solution, wear personal
protective equipment to prevent any disinfectant from getting
on your skin or being inhaled. To avoid adverse physical
effects, be careful not to touch the disinfectant solution
directly or to inhale too much vapor. If any disinfectant
solution gets in your eyes, immediately rinse with a large
amount of fresh water and then consult a medical specialist.
Personal protective equipment, such as eye wear, face
mask, moisture-resistant clothing, and chemical-resistant
gloves that fit properly and are long enough so that your skin
is not exposed. All personal protective equipment should be
inspected before use and replaced periodically before it is
damaged.
•
For details on replacing the disinfectant solution, see Section
7.12, “Replacing the disinfectant solution” on page 176.
•
After disinfection of the water supply piping, the quantity or
concentration of the disinfectant solution is reduced, making
it unusable in subsequent disinfections. Therefore, the
following operation is recommended immediately before
replacing the disinfectant solution.
