OER-Elite INSTALLATION MANUAL
Intended use
The OER-Elite is intended for use in cleaning and high-level disinfection of heat sensitive Olympus
flexible endoscopes, their accessories, and endoscope reprocessor accessories. Safe use requires
detergent and an FDA-cleared high-level disinfectant/sterilant that Olympus has validated to be
efficacious and compatible with the materials of the OER-Elite and Olympus flexible endoscopes, their
accessories, and endoscope reprocessor accessories. Use of a detergent or high-level
disinfectant/sterilant that has not been validated by Olympus may be ineffective and can damage the
OER-Elite components and the endoscopes being reprocessed. Endoscopes must be subject to
cleaning by the user prior to reprocessing; however, use of the OER-Elite enables the user to perform
modified manual cleaning of the endoscope prior to automated cleaning and high-level disinfection in
the OER-Elite.
Instruction manuals
The instructions for this equipment are divided into two volumes: “Instructions-Installation Manual”, and
“Instructions-Operation Manual”.
Instructions regarding the preparation of endoscopes prior to placing them in the OER-Elite are found
in “Instructions-Operation Manual”.
Each of these manuals contains essential information for using this equipment safely and effectively.
The “Instructions-Installation Manual” describes how to install the equipment. The
“Instructions-Operation Manual” describes how to operate and maintain the equipment and describes
modifications to the manual endoscope cleaning process that can save the user time and
inconvenience, if the endoscope is going to be subsequently reprocessed using the OER-Elite.
The “List of Compatible Endoscopes/Connecting Tubes <OER-Elite>” identifies all Olympus model
endoscopes that are compatible with the OER-Elite, plus the specific connecting tube(s) required for
each of these endoscope models.
The descriptions in these manuals assume that all endoscopes are reprocessed in the OER-Elite using
both an Olympus-validated detergent and disinfectant. Contact Olympus to obtain the list of both
Olympus-validated disinfectant solutions and detergents.
Before using this reprocessor, be sure to review all of the above-mentioned manuals, the safety
information provided with Olympus-validated detergents and disinfectants, and the manuals for all
other equipment used in the process. Always use this equipment as instructed. It might cause
unexpected danger if you do not follow the installation and operation manual. Keep these and all
related instruction manuals and documents in a safe and accessible location.
If you have any questions or comments about any information in these manuals, contact Olympus.

casters of the equipment are clean before installation.
WARNING
• Make sure to connect the power cord plug to the hospital-grade wall mains power
outlet of your medical facility. Plug the power cord directly into a hospital-grade,
wall mains power outlet and do not use a multiple outlet. This equipment must be
grounded; otherwise, an electric shock or a fire may result.
• Do not allow the power cord plug to get wet. A wet plug could cause an electric
shock.
• To prevent an electric shock, do not touch the power cord plug or directly touch the
power source with wet hands.
• When using disinfectant solution and alcohol, Olympus recommends the use of gas
filters and running this equipment in well-ventilated areas.
Wear a face mask, gloves, and protective clothes to minimize aspiration and
skin contact.
Wear goggles for eye protection.

WARNING
• Do not push the rear end of equipment against a wall after connecting the power
cord plug. The power cord may break and result in an electric shock or a fire.
• Make sure that the hospital-grade, wall mains power outlet of your medical facility
meets the power specifications required by this unit. Insufficient capacity could
result in a fire or activation of the facility’s circuit breakers, which will turn off the
power to all other equipment connected to the same power source.
• Use the power cord plug supplied with the equipment. Using a different power cord
plug may result in equipment malfunction or power cord burnout. Additionally, do
not use the supplied power cord plug on any other equipment as it is specified to be
used only with this equipment.
CAUTION
• To prevent fluid leakage, do not attempt to extend the water supply hose and drain
hoses.
• To prevent fluid leakage or damage, do not bend the water supply hose and drain
hose or apply external force to them.
• To prevent discharge failure, cut off any excess drain hose and coil in such a
manner as to prevent it from bending or kinking.
• To prevent discharge failure, always leave the drain hose tip open to the air inside
the floor drain (the hose tip should not be immersed in liquid and the inside of the
floor drain should be open to the air).
• If the water supply capacity drops below the minimum required flow rate and
pressure levels, the equipment may stop with an error, the process time may be
prolonged. When the water supply capacity pressure and flow rate is low, improve
the water supply by installing a booster pump, etc.
• If the water supply pressure (shut-off pressure) exceeds 0.5 MPa, contact Olympus
to request pressure reducing materials.
• Do not supply water with a temperature over 28qC (82qF), as this can cause the
equipment or endoscope to deteriorate.
• Although the reprocessor incorporates a water filter, it may still fail or the water filter
use life may be reduced if the water contains a large amount of debris and
sediment. If this is the case, contact Olympus to have a strainer installed in the
water supply piping.

The water supply plug of this equipment is designed to be connected to an ordinary tap water faucet
with 3/4” GHT (garden hose thread), or the Olympus Pre-Filter Assembly (MF01-0033PL). If a different
type of the water faucet is used, have a plumber enable a safe and secure connection.
4.4 Connection of the water supply hose
1Make sure that there is a packing inside of the
water supply plug.
Figure 4.2
2Fit the water supply plug onto the water faucet
and turn it clockwise to tighten with the
provided wrench. The pitch of the thread of the
water supply plug is “3/4” garden hose thread
(GHT).
