ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR OER-Pro Operation Manual 151 Chapter 7 Routine Maintenance 7.3 Disinfecting the water supply piping Check Required items Container with 2 L or larger capacity (wide-mouthed container such as a vat) Filter tube (u 1) Water supply piping disinfecting hose 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.) Drain water from the water filter housing. (See “Draining water from the water filter housing” on page 143.) If water drain is OK Disinfect the water supply piping. Figure 7.22 152 ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR OER-Pro Operation Manual 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. ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR OER-Pro Operation Manual 153 Chapter 7 Routine Maintenance 1.
