EW 1 Series
Compact Endoscope Reprocessors
The EW 1 Series of automatic endoscope reprocessors is designed for low-temperature washing and high-level disinfection/liquid sterilization of one flexible endoscope, two video broncho/cystoscopes, or up to four fiber broncho/cystoscopes of the major brands and models available in the market. The series also allows the treatment of rigid endoscopes. The devices’ compact design assures low cycle costs by minimizing water, chemicals, and energy consumption, guaranteeing an optimal level of infection control and prevention.
Endowed with a stainless steel base for the storage of process chemicals, EW 1 series’ design provides an installation set for any facility. Available as single door or double door pass-through versions, EW 1 can also be ordered in its “rack configuration,” having two units installed, one on top of the other in a unique frame structure. EW 1 has been developed to fully comply with EN ISO 15883-4 and EN ISO 14937 in combination with its validated set of chemistry for high-level disinfection or liquid sterilization processes at low temperature.
Workflow Solutions
Steelco offers a comprehensive range of solutions to meet the challenges of your reprocessing facilities. Whatever the sizes and layout of your endoscopic department, we help you plan, manage and optimize the workflow to best ensure efficiency, productivity, and cost-effective operation. With this aim, we do not simply offer endoscopic reprocessing devices but a complete and integrated reprocessing system with carefully designed accessories.
Complete Endoscope Reprocessing Traceability
ARES devices are compatible with SteelcoData Ares software that ensures the complete traceability of the endoscope reprocessing process. SteelcoData Ares software is designed to meet the endoscopic room’s operational requirements by promptly tracking and providing information to maintain safety, efficiency, and high production.
Optimal Performance with Steelco Chemicals
The independently validated results achieved by the ARES flexible endoscope reprocessor range are strictly linked to the use of Steelco chemistries, which provide cost-effective rapid cycles compliant to ISO 15883-4 and ISO 14937 standards. Using non-validated chemistries contravenes standards can compromise the cycle efficacy, and may cause damages to both the equipment and the endoscopes.
Key Features
Flexible Solution
Treatment of one standard flexible endoscopes, up to two video bronchoscopes/cystoscopes, and up to four fiber bronchoscopes/cystoscopes.
Ergonomics
Ergonomic loading and unloading thanks to the hinged door that acts as a stand and as an anti-dripping surface, thus helping keep the floor dry, clean, and safe.
Thermal Self-Disinfection
Automatic and programmable thermal self-disinfection cycle of the chamber, the washing cart, and the hydraulic circuit according to the preferred method indicated in EN ISO 15883-4.
Customization
A compact and highly flexible design. Also available in a rack configuration with two units installed one on top of the other in a unique frame structure to fit even the most restricted spaces.
Asynchronous Reprocessing
The rack configuration allows the complete asynchronous reprocessing of endoscopes in two completely independent units.
Full Traceability
Faster endoscope and operator recognition through barcode/RFID reader options. Cycle details can be stored on a memory stick connected to the integrated USB interface, printed by the built-in thermal printer, or alternatively registered in the optional SteelcoData traceability software.
