Medivators Veriscan LT
Medivators · Model Veriscan LT
Detect leaks with 99% accuracy Lowers cross-contamination risk due to undetected leaks Detects endoscope leaks early when repairs are minor and less costly Unsurpassed leak detection compared to visual observation methods Dry endoscope leak test – no fluid submersion required Utilizes highly sensitive, innovative leak sensing technology Compatible will all flexible endoscopes Simple to operate Ensures compliance with endoscope leak test protocols Provides consistent, repeatable endoscope leak testing Printed confirmation of leak test results
Key tips
- ·A failed leak test means the scope does not get reprocessed or used - send it for repair, full stop.
- ·A shortened reprocessing cycle is a real infection-control failure, not a minor deviation - follow AAMI ST91 exactly.
- ·Track light-source lamp-hours against the manufacturer's limit rather than running to failure.
Typical Failure Modes
Failure patterns typical of this equipment class - general BMET reference, not verified against this exact unit's own service history unless flagged. Severity is a category-level estimate.
Chemical dosing pump fault
HighSymptoms: Under/over-dosed disinfectant; cycle fails self-test.
Root cause: Worn peristaltic pump or clogged dosing line.
Channel connector / leak test fault
HighSymptoms: Cycle aborts on leak or connectivity test.
Root cause: Worn connector fitting or a blocked scope channel.
Water filtration / UV fault
MediumSymptoms: Failed rinse-water quality alarm.
Root cause: Saturated filter or UV lamp failure.
Door seal / interlock fault
LowSymptoms: Won't start cycle, door won't seal.
Root cause: Worn door gasket or interlock switch.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Leak testing before each reprocessing cycle
- ·Scope reprocessing per AAMI ST91
- ·Light source lamp-hour tracking
- ·Annual full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A structured starting point derived from the failure modes above. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Chemical dosing pump fault
- Confirm the presentation - typically under/over-dosed disinfectant; cycle fails self-test - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: worn peristaltic pump or clogged dosing line.
- Isolate the affected subsystem using the manufacturer's functional check or self-test, where one is provided.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the chemical dosing pump per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
