Verifying the flow of the EFP-500 can be easily done and should be checked daily to make sure the
unit is operating to output specifications.
Flow verification is performed without the EFP-500
connected to an endoscope.
Flow Verification of Main Channel Assembly:
1. Fill a container with approximately
three liters
of clean water.
2. Connect the inlet tube assembly to the EFP-500 and place the screened end into the
container with the three liters of water making sure it is fully submerged.

graduated container supplied with unit.
Disconnect
the Special Channel Assembly from the
EFP-500.
4. Press the Water Start button and allow the unit to operate for a full cycle making sure the
hose assembly remains in the graduated container.
