Serie 4 PA: Advanced Technology for Safe and Efficient Endoscope Reprocessing
The Serie 4 PA is more than just an endoscope washer-disinfector. It is a state-of-the-art medical device designed to meet the high demands of healthcare facilities for the reprocessing of flexible endoscopes. This innovative system offers a complete, fast, and reliable solution to ensure the safety of patients and operators while maximizing procedural efficiency.
Thanks to its patented dual-wash technology, the Serie 4 PA stands out for its superior efficiency. This innovative process allows for a complete cleaning and disinfection cycle in a short time. By optimizing each step of the process, from immersion to disinfection, this rapid cycle not only reduces waiting times between procedures but also improves the overall productivity of the care unit.
This technology is particularly crucial in environments where endoscope availability must be maximized, such as operating rooms or gastroenterology units. The dual-wash action ensures a thorough cleaning of the endoscope channels, which is essential for removing biological residues and pathogens. This significantly reduces the risk of cross-contamination, thereby enhancing patient safety.
The Serie 4 PA has been designed with a strong focus on ergonomics and ease of use. Its 7-inch touch screen, clear and intuitive, allows users to easily access all device functions. The graphical interface is intuitive, offering quick navigation and immediate visualization of critical information such as cycle status or maintenance alerts. This simplifies the daily work of operators and helps minimize human errors.
Additionally, the large touch screen ensures smooth and fast interaction, even in high-pressure clinical environments where time is critical. Operators can manage multiple devices simultaneously, contributing to better workflow organization and resource optimization.
The smooth surfaces of the device are designed to be easy to clean, thus reducing the risk of dirt buildup or contaminant residues. This design plays a key role in maintaining the high hygiene standards required by healthcare facilities. Quick and easy cleaning of the equipment between cycles ensures impeccable cleanliness for both the device itself and the endoscopes it processes.
Safety is at the heart of the Serie 4 PA’s design. It is built to offer maximum protection for patients by ensuring a high level of disinfection with a contact time of only 3 minutes at a controlled reprocessing temperature between 35 and 40°C. This ensures the elimination of pathogens while preserving the integrity of the endoscopes.
For operators, the device is equipped with safety measures such as a 30 mA differential breaker, which protects against electrical overloads. The user interface also provides real-time alerts for regular maintenance or potential malfunctions, thereby reducing risks associated with improper use.
One of the major advantages of the Soluscope Serie 4 PA is its universal compatibility. It can process flexible endoscopes from all manufacturers, including ultrasound endoscopes, making it a versatile solution suitable for many medical specialties, such as gastroenterology, pulmonology, and surgery.
The Serie 4 PA also incorporates traceability options. With a barcode reader, printer, and memory card, the device ensures complete tracking of each reprocessing cycle. Additionally, the EP-Digital option allows for digital recording of each endoscope’s history, ensuring complete documentation that meets regulatory sterilization requirements.
To ensure optimal performance, the washer-disinfector complies with strict requirements for water pressure and flow rate. With a maximum pressure of 4 bars and a minimum flow rate of 4 liters per minute, the device ensures sufficient water circulation for effective cleaning and disinfection. It can also be equipped with a reverse osmosis (RO) treatment system, further improving the quality of the water used in the process, particularly in areas where the water is hard or contains impurities.
