ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR OER-Pro Operation Manual
• Replace the water filter in a clean environment. Do not touch
the inner side of the water filter or allow dust to get in it.
• After replacing the water filter, be sure to perform the
operation described in Section 7.3, "Disinfecting the water
supply piping" on page 202 to prevent the growth of
water-borne microorganisms. Failure to perform this
operation could result in contamination of the device piping
and ineffective reprocessing of the endoscope.
• Always be sure to attach the water filter. Otherwise,
water-borne microorganisms and particulates in the water
may contaminate the device piping and prevent effective
reprocessing of the endoscope.
• If air gets in the water filter housing, it may extend the
process time. In case of an irregularity such as extension of
the process time or lack of water supply, drain the air as
described in "Draining air in the water filter housing" on
page 199.
• Be careful not to drop the removed water filter housing to
avoid damaging the connector below the water filter housing.
Make sure that the O-ring at the head of the water filter
housing is free of abnormalities such as cracks, breaks, rips,
scratches, or stains. Water leakage may result if the O-ring is
not attached or is abnormal.
