Product overviewEPW 100 S is a semi-automatic system designed to support manual cleaning of endoscopes. It automates continuous leak testing and performs controlled washing, rinsing and purging of endoscope channels to reduce handling risk and improve process consistency. The unit features an intuitive soft-touch HMI and supports hands-free identification of instruments and operators via barcode reader or RFID.
Key functions and benefits- Continuous automated leak testing to protect instruments and operators
- Washing, rinsing and purging of channels for effective manual cleaning support
- Hands-free operator and instrument identification using barcode reader or RFID
- Compatibility with OCS (One-Time Connection System) to minimize handling between pre-wash, wash/disinfection and drying/storage
- Cycle recording with options to print, export to USB or integrate with SD Ares traceability software
- Capability for full immersion of endoscopes in line with most European guidelines
Features- Semi-automatic support that speeds up and documents manual cleaning steps
- Continuous leak test combined with channel flushing, rinsing and purging
- Automatic single-shot detergent dosing to reduce waste
- Single-gesture residue testing: directs rinse water to a container for organic residue analysis
- Easy-to-clean soft-touch control panel designed for disinfection
OCS - One-Time Connection SystemOCS is a single-connection interface shared across pre-wash, wash/disinfection and drying/storage equipment, minimizing manipulations of endoscopes throughout the reprocessing workflow and lowering cross-contamination and human error risks.
RFID hands-free process & traceabilityThe platform supports a hands-free workflow using RFID for touchless identification of operators and scopes (bracelets or badges). Cycle data and identification can be recorded and exported or integrated into SD Ares traceability systems for comprehensive process tracking.
Sinks and furniture for manual cleaningOptional sinks and cabinets are available for manual cleaning, with fixed or adjustable heights and tops in stainless steel or Corian®. Optional automatic filling and draining systems control detergent temperature, concentration and contact time while leaving manual channel brushing to operators as required by international guidelines.
