ALT-Y0003 INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Ch.5
This equipment features the following functions for the automated leakage testing:
• This equipment can perform a leakage test in air in an ALT; you do not need to store water in
the basin.
• This equipment performs automatic leakage testing of the endoscope.
• This equipment can store the records of leakage testing.
WARNING
Be sure to wear protective gear such as moisture-resistant clothes, goggles, a face
mask, chemical-resistant gloves that fit properly and are long enough so that your
skin is not exposed. Otherwise, potentially infectious materials attached to the
endoscope, such as blood and/or mucus of the patient, may cause an infection.
PRECAUTION
Do not immerse the endoscope in water nor touch it during Automated Leakage
Testing. Accurate leakage testing cannot be conducted.
NOTE
• Automated leak testing can not start without recognition of both Scope ID and User
ID. Read the both Scope ID and User ID, referring to Section 5.5, “Recognition of
scope ID” and Section 5.7, “Recognition of user ID”.
• For the setting of history printing, see Section 7.5, “Setting print mode”.
• The air fed into the endoscope may slightly expand the rubber cover of the bending
section. This is not an abnormality.
• When a leakage test ends, the result is automatically recorded in this equipment.
• Up to 13,000 records of leakage testing can be stored in this equipment. If more
than 13,000 records are stored, the oldest record is overwritten.
• To stop the leakage test during operation, press the STOP/BACK button.
• A quite small pin hole may not be detected in automated leakage testing.
• Endoscopes not listed in the “List of Compatible Endoscopes <ALT-Y0003>” can
not be automatically leak-tested. If an incompatible endoscope is connected, only
the MANUAL light lights up when the SELECT button is pressed.
