Description

Reliance Endoscope Processing System (REPS), STERIS Corporation, 5960 Heisley Road, Mentor, OH 44060-1834 USA www.steris.com. The intended use of the REPS is washing and high level disinfection of up to two manually pre-cleaned, immersible, reusable, heat-resistant, semi-critical devices.

Reason

The air pipe that delivers unfiltered ambient air from the procedure room into the water bottle on the listed FUJINON G5 & G8 type flexible GI endoscopes does not connect to the main air/water channel within the light guide (LG) connection head and, as a result, the air pipe does not receive forced flow during the Reliance EPS processing cycle.
