Endodry Drying Storage Cabinets ENDODRY Cabinet Specifications

· Color touch screen display for quick identification of endoscope storage time

· Barcode scanner for endoscope and operator identification

· Locking doors protect endoscope inventory Dimensions: 75 H x 24 W x 22 D (inches) 190 H x 60 W x 54 D (cm) Electrical Requirements: 100-240 VAC, 50/60HZ, Power Input: 75W, Fuse: T2A (internal device) 15A (circuit) Air Requirements: Instrument grade air Available Configurations: Available in single-sided or pass-thru models The ENDODRY Storage and Drying System is a pass-through system providing endoscope channel drying. This system is used in conjunction with existing high-level disinfection (HLD) AER scope system. The equipment will support the turnaround timeframe for procedural GI scopes after reprocessing in the Medivator Advantage Plus AER.

Provides a controlled environment for the drying and storage of endoscopes after a successful reprocessing cycle Assists with the endoscope drying process in as little as one hour for the internal channels and three hours for the external portion For use with the ADVANTAGE PLUS™ AER and cassette to minimize handling After processing in an ADVANTAGE PLUS AER, the endoscope is transferred to the ENDODRY Drying & Storage System in its cassette, then uses external instrument grade compressed air to aid in the amount of time needed for the drying process of a flexible endoscope.

Assists with the endoscope drying process in as little as one hour for the internal channels and three hours for the external endoscope surfaces. The cassette then maintains the status of a patient-ready endoscope for up to 31 days Provides a controlled environment for the drying and storage of endoscopes after a successful reprocessing cycle Pairs with the ADVANTAGE PLUS Automated Endoscope Reprocessor to facilitate data transfer between the two devices With SMART Connect in place, the ENDODRY Cabinet alerts users that the endoscope has not completed a successful HLD cycle in the AER. Additionally, it won’t allow the endoscope to enter the ENDODRY Cabinet if the endoscope has been removed from the AER without entry into the cabinet for over an hour.
