ETD3 Introduction

The Olympus ETD system has become the pioneering standard for 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 and Ecolab have set themselves the joint challenge of raising this high standard still further. The result of this cooperation is the new HTM2030 compliant ETD3.

Features of ETD3

PAA (Peracetic Acid) process	New Olympus chemicals EndoDet, EndoDis and EndoAct are used for the single-shot PAA process, which provides reliable disinfection results and full material compatibility with Olympus Flexible endoscopes
Rinse water	To prevent recontamination of endoscopes by rinse water, decontamination of the rinse water is necessary, which is achieved by UV radiation and a small quantity of PAA, which is added to the rinse wate
Remote access	ETD3 is equipped with a modem / ISDN interface for remote service access. This will enable Olympus service technicians to install updated software versions to the machine from the workshop. In addition, this will allow them to diagnose and solve problems direct from Technical Services.
Leak tester	Works with a very high sensitivity and detects even the smallest perforations in the endoscope.
Dosage monitoring	Correct dosage quanitities are essential for reliable hygienic results. In ETD3 the correct dosage of chemicals is directly measured by an impeller rotation counter.
Elevator channel supply	A special pump will ensure that the elevator channel of duodenoscopes is flushed with an increased pressure.
Basket Coding	ETD3 will automatically identify, which basket has been inserted in the machine.
Water softner	ETD3 is equipped with a water softener which does not require a regeneration program to be run.
Spray arm rotation	The rotation of the spray arm is monitored by a dedicated magnetic sensor. This ensures correct cleaning results of the outer surfaces of endoscopes.
Water inlet	Controlled by an impeller cycle counter, which assures a volumetric control of water quantity used per cycle.
Drying unit	60^oC Hepa-filtered air for drying flexible endoscopes.
High temperature cycle	This program allows a high temperature pre-programmable self-disinfection of the washing chamber.
Self start function	This allows the machine to start automatically in the morning to perform a self-disinfection program.
