5. Attach the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL) or automated leak tester using the adaptor at the end of
the tubing to the flexible endoscope’s vent port using a clockwise push and turn motion until it stops.
6. Pump up the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL) until a pressure of 200 mmHg is reached. Fully
articulate the distal tip 5 times in each direction using the control lever, then reduce the pressure by pressing the
pressure release button until the pressure reaches 160 mmHg.
Note:
If using an automated leak tester, set the leak tester pressure to 160 mmHg and turn it on.
Warning:
If 160 mmHg pressure decreases on the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL), do not continue
with reprocessing. Refer to Endoscope Return Instructions for return instructions.
Warning:
Do not perform a wet leak test in water containing detergent as bubble observation is difficult to perform
with detergent present.
7. While pressurized, submerge the entire flexible endoscope into a basin or sink containing a minimum of 10 L (2.6
gallons) of room temperature water (no detergent). The leak tester should be outside the basin or sink and should
not be immersed. Ensure the flexible endoscope is COMPLETELY submerged. If surface bubbles are visible on
the flexible endoscope after submerging, use a syringe filled with water to remove them.
8. While submerged, attach the rinse tube assembly (P/N 11301CDT) to the cleaning adaptor (P/N 11301CD1) and
attach the cleaning adaptor (P/N 11301CD1) to the suction port. Draw at least 10 mL of water using a syringe.
Attach the filled syringe to the rinse tube assembly (P/N 11301CDT) and flush the water.
9. Keep the flexible endoscope submerged for 1 minute, while fully deflecting the distal tip as follows:
• Place the distal tip in the neutral (straight) position and hold for 15 seconds.
• Articulate the distal tip to the full up position and hold for 15 seconds.
• Articulate the distal tip to the full down position and hold for 15 seconds.
• Place the distal tip in the neutral (straight) position again and hold for 15 seconds.
10. Observe for a formation of bubbles on the exterior of the flexible endoscope or a stream of air bubbles.
11. If the flexible endoscope has a leak as determined by a fall in pressure as seen on the KARL STORZ Leakage
Tester (P/N 13242XL) or if bubbles are discovered per the steps above, immediately remove the flexible
endoscope from the water. Press the pressure release button on the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL)
or turn off the automated leak tester to reduce the pressure to 0. Detach the Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL) from
the flexible endoscope and refer to the "Endoscope Return Instructions" for further instructions.
12. If the flexible endoscope does not leak, remove it from the water bath and press the pressure release button on
the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL) to release pressure to “0” or follow the air pump’s manufacturer
instructions for releasing pressure from the flexible endoscope.
13. After the pressure drops to “0”, detach the KARL STORZ Leakage Tester (P/N 13242XL) or automated leak tester
from the flexible endoscope and proceed to manual cleaning.
