Dries up to 16 endoscopes. HEPA filter system that offers a minimum 99.97% retention rate of particles that have a size> 0.3µm. Provides constant air delivery through all internal endoscope channels. Visual display of purging times Short drying cycle for quick tum-around time Continuous venting cycle for overnight storage Automatic high-pressure shutoff Fulfills forced air recommendations that meets or exceeds ANSI/AAMI ST9 l standards. Ability to self-adjust high-pressure regulation. Works with all major endoscope brands Filter replacement indicator light - Scope tracking system that is standalone, no Wi-Fi or network connectivity with USB capability for downloading of reports, meets or exceeds AORN, SONA, and AAMI guidelines. Digital display maintains a list of scopes by drying status, with displays of scope processing times. Intelligent automated scheduler continuously processes scopes as long as they remain checked into the system. Includes default or customizable settings and drying options unique to each endoscope. Scope tracker maintains records of scope drying events, user access, check-ins and check-outs. Color touch screen access by authorized personnel is completed by passcode, with adjustable session timeout settings and options for passcode retrieval if forgotten. Various adjustable timing options controlled through the color touchscreen including drying, pre-drying and venting time settings, hang time limits, endoscope removal/load delay timing, etc. -At a glance, display shows scope inventory and reprocessing status including the time until scope expiration requiring further reprocessing Slot display order settings displayed on the status screen per user preferences. Configurable replacement times for tubing and pump filter, with overdue warnings/indicator lights Downloadable export files available for endoscope management, user lists and more Customizable Hang Time Monitor adjusts the number of days your scopes hang; you will be alerted when a scope is about to expire. Source Considerations: Power source: Medical Power Supply with 42-inch DC output cord and DIN connector, 6' Medical Power Cord, Plug: Medical Grade NEMA 5-15P Connector, 12' UL Power Cord Plug: NEMA 5-15P; Connector, will require 3 outlets per cabinet. USB Connector - Type 81 used for service purposes only. Voltage requirements: Input: 90 to 250 VAC; 50-60 Hz, Output (max): 12 VDC; 7.5 Amps; 90 Watts Biomedical Tech Considerations Representative will visit Facility for Set-Up and Training Disposable Scope Attachments Sold Separately HEPA Filter: This component must be replaced when the Pump Module's orange Filter LED is repeatedly illuminated during pumping or after 6 months of operation; whichever comes first. The tubing assemblies have a 12-month service limit, It is recommended that the internal tubing assemblies are visually examined for cracking or discoloration after 6-months of use. If cracks or discoloration is found or the tubes are 12-months of age or older, all the Flamingo or Cetacea tubing's should be replaced immediately. Pump Performance Monitoring After installation of a new or repaired pump an initial output pressure should be measured and logged per Pump Pressure Test Procedure (401998-355). After that, the pump's output pressure should be periodically re-measured (and logged) in the same manner. This output pressure log allows the user to identify any relative decrease in pump's output capacity so service can be performed on the pump in order to restore its air output capabilities. It is recommended, as a minimum, that this test be performed at the same time as air filter replacements. This will assure logged values at least every 6 months. More frequent measurements are encouraged. Perform the Pump Pressure Test Procedure (401998-355) using the Mini Pump Test Load (401998-354). This should be done at least once every 6 months during the time of a filter service change. The pump pressure measured during this test should be logged in the data log provide by the procedure and evaluated per the procedure to assure pump performance. Additional References: I.
