Use the following procedure to leak test an endoscope. Leak test adaptors are available for Pen-
tax, Olympus, and Fujinon endoscopes.
facturer’s manual leak test. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-

- Connect the leak tester hook-up between the endoscope and the basin outlet.
3. Select the desired disinfection cycle. Press the START button on the reprocessor con-
trol panel.
4. The endoscope inflates for 20 seconds to 160mmHg (3psi). Endoscope pressure is
monitored for another 20 seconds.
- Ifthe pressure decreases below the 50mmHg (1psi) reading within this period, the
warning LED on the reprocessor control panel blinks, the system activates an
alarm and the message “Sheath Fail” is displayed. Press the STOP button to end
the cycle. The cycle is aborted.
- © Ino leak is detected, the disinfection cycle starts as normal. No indication is

5. Pressure is maintained during the disinfection cycle to detect small leaks and prevent
fluid ingression. If a small leak is detected, the reprocessor will continue the cycle then
alert the operator of any detected leaks at the end of the cycle.
- Press the STOP button to acknowledge the warning.
6. The endoscope automatically deflates at the end of the cycle.
7. The log printout indicates if the leak tester option is disabled, or indicates any leak test
