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 more than
14 days.
•
Olympus recommends to perform microbiological sampling
of the OER-Pro rinse water quality right after performing the
water supply piping disinfection if the device has not been
used for more than 14 days. For details on sampling rinse
water, see Section 7.4, "Microbiological surveillance" on
page 211.
•
When disinfection of water supply piping is required,
Olympus recommends performing it prior to replacement of
the disinfectant solution. The disinfectant solution must still
meet the MRC using the test strip. After disinfection of water
supply piping, drain the disinfectant solution according to the
instructions in the instruction manual and the facility policy.
Fill the OER-Pro with fresh disinfectant solution prior to
proceeding with endoscope reprocessing.
•
There may be instances when the water supply lines are
disinfected using fresh disinfectant for the first time.
Following disinfection of the water supply piping with fresh
disinfectant, the quantity of disinfectant solution might be
reduced preventing use of the fresh disinfectant for
endoscope reprocessing. In this case, additional fresh
disinfectant can be added to the OER-Pro only when using
the ready-to-use disinfectant prepared by top loading. Adding
fresh disinfectant to increase the volume of the existing fresh
disinfectant will achieve typical usage conditions.
