Monitors the flow of liquids through the endoscope’s channels via electronic flow sensors, storing this reference data for each individual endoscope and cross-referencing it to ensure that channels are correctly connected and that no channel is blocked. A continuous flow of liquids makes sure that the channels are thoroughly disinfected. If flow levels diverge from the norm the following occurs:-

The reprocessing cycle is interrupted, since a drop in flow indicates that a channel is blocked. An above-average flow control reading, more than likely means that the tube has probably not been attached to the endoscope correctly. In this case, ETD3 asks the user to attach the tube correctly so that the adaptor is positioned correctly
