How To Prevent Damage To Insertion Tube

Here is a guide on how to prevent damage to the insertion tube of your Pentax endoscope:

Avoid acutely bending the scope at any point, particularly where the flexible portion is connected to a rigid portion.

Use only PENTAX compatible cleaning solutions. Do not overexpose scope to solution (check manufacturer specifications)

Avoid tightly looping the scope while cleaning in a basin or sink

Avoid grasping onto the umbilical cable while pulling the scope out from the processor. Instead hold onto the plastic (PVE) connector housing

Never autoclave an endoscope

Avoid over-coiling an endoscope in the sink

Ensure proper handling of the scope
