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.
Image sensor / CCD fault
HighSymptoms: No image, color shift, or visible artifacts.
Root cause: Image sensor or its driver board aging.
Camera cable / connector wear
MediumSymptoms: Intermittent signal or no image at the tower.
Root cause: Cable flex fatigue or connector pin wear.
Coupler / lens fault
MediumSymptoms: Blurry, dark, or off-center image.
Root cause: Coupler or lens element misalignment/damage.
White balance / calibration fault
LowSymptoms: Color inaccuracy that won't correct on white-balance.
Root cause: Calibration drift or button/sensor fault.

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: Image sensor / CCD fault
- Confirm the presentation - typically no image, color shift, or visible artifacts.
- Check the most likely cause first: image sensor or its driver board aging.
- Inspect the affected subsystem against the manufacturer's inspection checklist.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the camera head / sensor assembly 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.
