DETERGENT SOLUTION
If the user decides to utilize the AER pre-wash function in the reprocessing cycle, Medivators recommends the use
of a detergent solution that has bacteriostatic properties to inhibit bacterial growth in the detergent reservoir and
detergent line. The detergent should be low foaming, free-rinsing and neutral in pH.
Note: Medivators recommends the use of INTERCEPT™ Detergent.
Caution! Manual cleaning of endoscopes is required prior to placement in the
reprocessor system.
Caution! Never use household detergent in the reprocessor.
DISINFECTANT SOLUTION
Caution! Intended for Use ONLY with RAPICIDE™ PA High-Level Disinfectant.
DISINFECTING WATER LINES
Chemical disinfection of the water treatment (filtration) and delivery system must be performed on a weekly basis
and whenever the 0.2 micron absolute bacterial retentive filter is replaced. ISO standards require that all rinse water
delivered to the washer/disinfector contain no more than 10 cfu (colonyforming units) per 100 ml.
Microbiological quality of potable water varies considerably. If the quality of washer/disinfector supplywater is unknown,
perform water quality testing according to local or internal guidelines.
The Water Line Disinfection program or utility is used to disinfect both the water line and the water filter. Activating this
utility fills the water line and water filter with disinfectant, and circulates it throughthe internal plumbing and the basin.
