2.7 Understanding Product and Controls and Indicators
2.7.1 What is the product?
RotaScope is an approved Medical Drying and Storage Cabinet for drying the
outside surfaces and internal tubes in flexible medical endoscopes.
RotaScope Cabinets hold up to nine endoscopes on Hang Hooks located in the
cabinet (Vertical storage of endoscopes)
2.7.2 How does the product work? – Overview
Room air, from an airconditioned room, is drawn into the cabinet via air pumps
(miniature side channel blower vacuum pumps).
The pumps push room air through HEPA filters into the cabinet to dry the outside
surfaces of the Endoscopes.
Scopes have up to seven tiny tubes (Lumens) that run through the inside of the
scope to deliver air, water, gas and instruments into the patient. These tubes need to
be dried after a scope is washed, to prevent any tiny remnants of biofilm or free
radical bugs from proliferating.
After reprocessing, in simple terms, “ A dry scope is a good scope ” .
For each stored scope, there are 7 small luer hose connection nipples located on
the manifold and Top Disk of the centre pole.
The manifold provides vacuum that draws air through the small hoses that run inside
of the endoscope to dry each tiny channel tube (Lumen).
Scope Connector Hose Kits have special connectors fitted, that allow one end of
the Scope Connector Hose to join to ports on the scope, whilst the other end
connects to the cabinets vacuum manifolds. The hoses are colour coded to match
the coloured sticker icons on the manifold and top disk, to ensure the hoses are
connected to the correct fitting.
In this way the air system sends HEPA filtered air into the cabinet (dries the outside of
the scopes), whilst sucking some of that filtered cabinet air out through the scope
channels (drying the insides of the scope).
Scopes can be continuously stored up to an independently approved storage time
of 31 Days in the cabinet. (Complies with European Dying Cabinet Standard
EN16442:2015)
