Procedures for Removable Parts and Cleaning
Equipment
This section includes the cleaning, disinfection and sterilization procedures for
removable parts and cleaning equipment. For all other parts, refer to their
respective instruction manuals. For the All-channel Irrigator, clean, disinfect and
sterilize it while cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing the endoscope.
Manual Cleaning
1. Immerse all the parts and equipment in a basin of detergent solution
prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For the Biopsy Valve
(MB-358), remove the cover from the body before immersion.
Make sure that the items immersed in detergent solution do
not contact one another. In particular, make sure not to
scratch the seals on the Air/Water Valve and AW Channel
Cleaning Adapter with brushes, etc.
2. Using a clean, soft brush or lint-free cloth, meticulously clean the outer
surfaces in detergent solution. Clean the bristle of the cleaning brushes
(BW-20T and MH-507) thoroughly while brushes are immersed. While
immersed, depress and release the pistons of the Air/Water Valve, Suction
Valve and AW Channel Cleaning Adapter to ensure that detergent solution
contacts all crevices and surfaces of the valves.
3. Using the Channel Cleaning Brush (BW-20T), thoroughly brush openings of
the Suction Valve and the Air/Water Valve until no debris can be seen.
Clean the bristles and crevices of the brush while it is immersed in detergent
solution.
4. Using the 30 cm
3
(30 ml) syringe, flush the interior and recessed parts of the
Biopsy Valve and while it is immersed in detergent solution.
