REPLACING 1 MICRON AIR FILTER/HEPA FILTER
Please get in touch with the Olive Health Care service team for replacement of 1 micron air filter/HEPA filter. It is
recommended to replace the HEPA filter every 6 months.
Note that the filters used in Olive EDC are tested under special circumstances. Olive Health Care recommends use
of filters provided solely by the manufacturer. Any replacements of cabinet components without the written consent
of the manufacturer may void the warranty agreement.
OPERATION AND BEST PRACTICES
CAUTION
: The user is responsible for thoroughly cleaning, performing high-level disinfecting, and thorough leak
testing of the endoscopes used in any medical procedures BEFORE placing them in the scope cabinet for storage.
Follow your institution’s cleaning and disinfection procedures.
IMPORTANT
: To obtain the maximum benefit of the endoscope cabinet, certain procedures must be followed:
1.
NEVER place dirty endoscopes in the endoscope cabinet.
2.
Hang the cleaned and thoroughly disinfected endoscopes in the provided holders. Make sure the endoscopes
hang freely so that they are not damaged or contaminated by contact with one another.
3.
Remove scope valves and caps and set locks in the “free” position
4.
Keep the endoscopes vertical in the cabinet. Endoscopes tubing must not drag on the floor of the cabinet. This
risks contamination if the cabinet is not 100% cleaned.
5.
Do NOT allow coiling or kinking of the endoscope cables. Moisture must be allowed to drain from the scopes.
Reducing moisture decreases the potential of contamination.
6.
Keep cabinet doors closed at all times to decrease the risk of contaminants reaching the endoscope.
7.
Make sure the cabinet ventilation is working properly throughout the storage process. Do not allow the air to
become stagnant, which increases the risk of infection.
8.
Clean and disinfect the cabinet thoroughly on a regular cleaning protocol, or when the cabinet becomes soiled.
