The standard in endoscope reprocessing: The Olympus ETD3. The Olympus ETD system has become the pioneering standard for the reliable hygienic reprocessing of endoscopes: user-friendly machines that clean and disinfect endoscopes safely after use, quickly preparing them for the next time they are needed. Together, Olympus, Miele Professional and Ecolab have set themselves the task of raising this high standard even further. The result of this cooperation is the ETD3. ETD System – hygiene and safety redefined With its innovative and unique features and processes, the ETD3 sets standards in...

The Peracetic Acid Process: Improved chemicals provide enhanced protection. PAA Process For a long time, doctors and nurses have been asking for a glutaraldehyde-free cleaning process. The peracetic acid process was developed as an efficient process which offers optimum protection for ETD3 users. In the process, three chemicals are used which fulfill all required safety standards and are easy to use: • the surfactant-based detergent has been optimized for lower temperatures Olympus PAA process • the disinfectant is based on peracetic acid (PAA) • the activator solution is dosed together...

The best formula for your endoscope Fully functional at low temperatures, the PAA process is gentle on your endoscopes. Extensive research was carried out to develop a formula for the composition of chemicals which ensures full material compatibility with your flexible Olympus endoscopes. The ETD System provides full compatibility with Olympus endoscopes. Verified Quality Independent hygienic expert reports have verified the reprocessing results of the ETD3. The test results confirm the reliable cleaning, disinfection and hygienic safety of the ETD3 system according to state-of-the-art...

Flow Control: Ensuring flow through endoscope channels. Flow Control – reliable irrigation of endoscope channels Flow Control supports monitoring the flow of liquids through the endoscope’s channels. A continuous flow of liquids makes sure that the channels are thoroughly disinfected. If flow levels diverge from the norm, the reprocessing cycle is interrupted, since a drop in flow indicates that a channel is blocked. An above-average reading, on the other hand, means that the tube has probably not been attached to the endoscope correctly. In this case, the ETD3 asks the user to correctly...

EndoID: Automatic identification and documentation. EndoID – all endoscope data under control A precondition for Flow Control is EndoID, the automatic endoscope recognition integrated in the ETD3. Each Olympus endoscope in the ETD3 is automatically identified at the start of the process by means of a transponder. As soon as the endoscope is recognized, the ETD3 calls up the correct flow rates for the channels of that specific endoscope from a database. As the manufacturer, Olympus knows the channel design of each and every endoscope and has used this expertise in the design of Flow Control....

Automatic Leakage Tester: Effective prevention of repairs. Leakage Tester – improved safety and convenience The leakage tester checks all endoscopes thoroughly for leakages, thereby identifying potential problems before they are able to cause serious damage. This is an effective way of preventing the need for repairs since damages due to leakage are the most common cause of costly endoscope repairs. Leakage Test Cleaning + Disinfection AP+295 mbar AP+140 mbar Program Start AP+300 mbar AP AP = Ambient Pressure Time The leakage tester prevents fluids from entering your endoscopes. Thermal...

New Rinse Water Treatment: Revolutionizing decontamination. Rinse Water Treatment – new reprocessing system with PAA Using PAA also revolutionizes the decontamination of the rinse water in the ETD3. Just a small amount of peracetic acid in the rinse water has a bacteriostatic effect. In conjunction with the improved UV light unit, this innovative concept prevents the endoscope from being recontaminated by the rinse water. As there is no more need for heating the rinse water, this method contributes substantially to the reduction of the overall cycle time. Dosage of PAA Washing chamber UV...

Increased performance down to the last detail. Volumetric Dosage Monitoring. The proper dosage of chemicals is essential in order to achieve the correct concentration of the reprocessing solution. In the ETD3, the dosage quantities of all chemicals are measured using an impeller rotation counter. This direct volumetric control guarantees the correct and precise dosage of chemicals and consequently the correct concentration of the disinfection solution. Elevator channel supply for duodenoscopes. A special high-pressure pump improves the disinfection of the elevator channel of duodenoscopes....

Easy servicing via remote maintenance During the development of the ETD3, a special focus was placed on the easy serviceability of the machine. The ETD3 is equipped with an ISDN router which allows the Olympus service technician to perform service tasks from the Olympus workshop. Software updates for the ETD3 operating system can easily be carried out via remote access. Errors can be diagnosed and eliminated more easily – there is no need for service technicians to make an extra journey. This will drastically reduce your service and maintenance costs for the ETD3. Remote maintenance is part...
