An example of each is illustrated below. Indications for Use MEDIVATORS DSD EDGE Endoscope Reprocessing System tests, washes, disinfects and rinses flexible endoscopes, such as fiberoptic and video endoscopes between patient uses. The DSD EDGE Endoscope Reprocessing System is indicated to provide high level disinfection, using RAPICIDE PA High Level Disinfectant, of heat sensitive semi-critical endoscopes.
Safety This section outlines general safety guidelines for proper operation and service of the reprocessor. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in severe injury or death to the patient and/or operator. Read and understand all operating and service procedures before attempting to operate the reprocessor. If the equipment is not used as specified, the protection by the equipment may be impaired.
Note: Prior to undertaking any service or maintenance operation, or when resetting the GFI ensure that the DSD EDGE Endscope Reprocessor is disconnected from the ® main power supply. If service or maintenance operations are to be conducted on the water system, ensure that the DSD EDGE Endoscope Reprocessor is isolated from the main water supply.
Chemicals The DSD EDGE Endoscope Reprocessor uses RAPICIDE PA Part A and Part B peracetic acid disinfectant components ® ® to high level disinfect endoscopes. Refer to the American National Standard recommended practice titled, Chemical Sterilants and High Level Disinfectants: A guide to Selection and Use (AAMI TIR7:1999) and/or Safe Handling and Biological Decontamination of Reusable Medical Devices in Health Care Facilities and in Nonclinical Settings (AAMI/ ANSI ST35:2003).
Monitoring Disinfectant Potency The disinfectant potency must be verified for each disinfection cycle. Use a peracetic acid test strip to verify that the retained disinfectant sample from the DSD EDGE Endoscope Reprocessor sample port is above the minimum ® recommended concentration (MRC). Endoscope Precleaning and Testing All endoscopes must be manually precleaned prior to disinfection.
Cleaning and Disinfection Always follow established professional guidelines while cleaning and disinfecting endoscopes. The following organizations have published recommended guidelines.

System Supply Water Supply For optimum cycle performance, the water supplied to the reprocessor must provide a flow rate of 3.2 gal/min (12 liters/ min), at 35-40 psi (2.4-2.75 bar). A hot and cold water supply requires the use of a tempering valve to maintain a water temperature of 95°C (±4°F) and 35ºC (±2ºC).
Warning! This air must be supplied from an oil free air source. System Drain The drain tube provided with the reprocessor consists of 36 inches of 1-inch diameter clear tubing. The drain tube must have 3 inches of drop (7.5 cm) or greater over the 36-inch length. The facility drain should be no higher than 18 inches to provide proper drainage.
Installation Verification Caution! Operating the 120VAC reprocessor without a hookup fitting might blow the 8-amp slow blow fuse. Operating the 230VAC reprocessor without a hookup fitting might blow the 4-amp slow blow fuse. Refer to the Site Requirements and Installation Guide PN 50097-091. Service: If the reprocessor cannot be verified, contact MEDIVATORS Technical Support at: 1-800-444-4729 or 1-763-553-3300.

Chapter 5 OPERATION Introduction This chapter explains how to startup and shut down the reprocessor, how to program the preprocessor for a delayed start sequence, how to leak test endoscopes and how to prepare and disinfect an endoscope.
Cycle Operation Startup Phase During start-up phase, the software monitors certain sensors. If any of the monitored sensors are not satisfied during start- up, an error message is displayed and the process is halted. To cancel the start-up phase, press the STOP key. To resume, resolve the error according to the error message displayed, press the STOP key, and then press the Start key.
Wash Phase The wash phase consists of up to two Soak segments. The operator has the choice to run one wash segment, two wash segments or no wash segments. Setting the Soak time above zero using Setup 5, disables the second segment. Note: If one or two wash segments are chosen, then the flush phase is skipped.
Air Phase The Air phase is simply a programmed time during which air is purged through the endoscope channels. Note: Please refer to the Disinfection Cycle Chart for user programmable time settings, default state times, and time limitations. Note: Every drain transaction is followed by an air purge where air is flushed through the endoscope channels and internal fluid lines.
Page 89
Note: Allow 1 inch of space at the top of the detergent and alcohol reservoirs to accommodate the reservoir sensors. 4. Check the disinfectant Part A and Part B supply bottle expiration dates. 5. Check the time on the reprocessor display screen for accuracy. Reset the time, if necessary. 6.
Disinfecting Endoscopes Use the following procedure to prepare an endoscope for disinfecting, to run the disinfection process, and to complete the disinfection process. Preparing the endoscope 1. Preclean the endoscope to remove any organic debris. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for precleaning, or refer to established professional guidelines.
Leak Testing Use the following procedure to leak test an endoscope. Leak test adaptors are available for PENTAX , OLYMPUS ® ® FUJIFILM and KARL STROZ endoscopes. ® Note: This automated test is not a substitute for the endoscope manufacturer’s manual leak test.
Running the Disinfection Process 1. Place the floating lid on the basin. Verify the endoscope or hookup does not protrude from the basin or contact the floating basin lid. 2. Close the reprocessor lid. 3. Press the STATION SELECT button to choose station A or station B. 4.
Completing the Disinfection Process When the disinfection process is complete, the LCD screen will prompt the operator to verify the disinfectant minimum recommended concentration. The operator must dip a test strip into the disinfectant sample port located within the front-left corner of the respective basin.
Process Interruption A process interruption may occur due to a system interruption, or initiated by the operator. System Interruption A system interruption may be caused by loss of water or air, loss of power, or by a lack of available Part A and Part B disinfectant components.
Shutdown Use the following process to shutdown the reprocessor at the end of the day. Turn the external air source to OFF (if applicable). Close the incoming water line shutoff valve. Sanitize the reprocessor upper basins and basin lids with an EPA-registered sanitizer, such as properly diluted ACTRIL Cold Sterilant.
Chapter 6 MAINTENANCE General This chapter contains basic maintenance procedures. Always refer to Safety section in the Introduction chapter before attempting to service the reprocessor.
Page 98
LEVELING The reprocessor must be installed on a level surface or be adjusted to level. Adjust the leveling pads after unpacking the reprocessor. 1. Place a bubble level on the basin surface in position “A”. 2. Adjust the rear leveling pads until the bubble is centered in the level glass. 3.
