| Ensuring flow through endoscope channels |
 |
 |
Flow Control monitors the flow of liquids through the endoscope's channels via electronic flow sensors. It ensures that channels are correctly connected and that no channel is blocked. A continuous flow of liquids makes sure that the channels are thoroughly disinfected. If flow levels diverge from the norm the following occurs: |
 |
The reprocessing cycle is interrupted, since a drop in flow indicates that a channel is blocked. |
|
An above-average flow control reading, more than likely means that the tube has probably not been attached to the endoscope correctly. |
|
In this case, the ETD3 gives an error message and asks the user to attach the tube correctly so that the adaptor is positioned correctly | |
