RELIANCE™ 6500 Endoscope Drying and Storage Cabinet

  • Continuous HEPA-filtered airflow facilitates the drying of internal lumens and external surfaces of endoscopes
  • Main unit holds 12 or 20 endoscopes, while expansion modules enable storage of up to 40 endoscopes
  • Vertical storage designed to keep endoscopes separated and within reach on retractable panels

Product Overview

The RELIANCE 6500 Endoscope Drying and Storage Cabinet is designed to help you manage access to your endoscope inventory, track key parameters, and easily access vertically hanging endoscopes, all in an organized and controlled drying environment.

This vertical endoscope storage cabinet aids in drying and meets or exceeds recommendations and guidelines from ANSI/AAMI ST91:2021, providing the assurance you need to protect and manage your endoscope inventory successfully.

ANSI/AAMI ST91:2021 standards:

"Drying of gastrointestinal endoscopes after washing and high-level disinfection is an essential component in processing. Forcing HEPA-filtered or instrument air through endoscope channels facilitates drying, can evacuate and/or accelerate the evaporation of residual alcohol (if used), and reduces the likelihood of progressive endoscope contamination by waterborne pathogens." 1

How the RELIANCE 6500 Endoscope Drying & Storage Cabinet Works

Effective endoscope drying and storage play a critical role in supporting infection control guidelines. The RELIANCE 6500 Endoscope Drying and Storage Cabinet is designed to protect and manage flexible endoscopes and transoesophageal probes in a clean environment that promotes drying.

HEPA air filtration removes 99.97% of particulates, while 26 internal air exchanges per hour facilitate the drying of internal lumens with channel-purging airflow and external surfaces through directed airflow.

Continuous Status Monitoring

The large touch screen allows interaction with gloved hands and displays important information like hang time status. Visual identification of scopes using systematic numbering and customizable views provides the most relevant information based on your needs.

Records key parameters, including endoscope model, technician, and storage time for traceability and documentation using barcode scanning.

Available in a Range of Sizes, Features, and Configurations To Fit Your Needs

The modular, vertical storage design meets the needs of small to high-volume endoscopy facilities. It accommodates 12 or 20 endoscopes, with expansion models enabling storage of up to 40 endoscopes.

Endoscope Drying Cabinet Size and Capacity Ranges

In addition to colonoscopes, specialty endoscope hangers facilitate placing and removing various endoscope types while minimizing contact between stored devices. The TEE/TOE Probe Holder and EUS (Ultrasound) Endoscope Holder allow for the placement of these devices, while the bronchoscope holder is specifically designed to accommodate a bronchoscope's control body.
