Miele E 505 Operating instructions

Module E 505 for intubation equipment

Please read the Warning and Safety instructions in the Operating

Instructions for your washer-disinfector carefully. You should only process instruments/medical products in this module if they have been declared as suitable for machine processing by the manufacturer. Please also observe the manufacturer's care instructions. The programme selected must be suitable for the materials from which the items to be processed are made. Where possible the programme should include thermal disinfection.

Areas of application:

This module is designed for use in mobile unit E 501 (which is supplied with separate operating instructions). It is designed for cleaning, disinfecting and drying hollow anaesthetic instruments and equipment. Special holders and injector jets are used for securing breathing tubes, breathing bags, Guedel tubes and endotracheal tubes, laryngeal masks and bellows.

To ensure a suitable standardised spray pressure for all connections, all

screw connectors must be fitted with jets, adapters, sleeves or blanking screws. Damaged jets, adapters or sleeves etc. must not be used.

Empty jets, etc. do not have to be replaced with blanking screws.

To ensure that hollow instruments are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected

internally, it is essential to connect them to the correct holders/jets in the mobile injector unit. They must not detach themselves from their holders during the programme. If, however, a hollow instrument does become dislodged from its holder during a programme, it must be processed again.

To avoid damage to certain items, observe the maximum permitted drying

temperature. The maximum temperature permitted for the elastomers in some breathing bags and masks is below 85°C. Drying results must be inspected after the cleaning programme has finished. If necessary, adjust the drying time at the end of the cleaning programme.

The illustration above shows module E 505 in mobile unit E 501.

Fit module E 505 into mobile unit

E 501.

To do this:

Place the two positioning guides over

the middle water inlet.

The inlet pipe needs to be positioned in front of the cover in the water inlet.

^ Press the bracket on the left hand

side down until the handle engages behind the rail on the mobile unit.

Attach Guedel tubes to injector jets with spring clips.

Expel air from the balloon lead.

Endotracheal tubes are fitted onto the injector jets so that spring clips secure them to the jets.

Place the balloon lead with the valve behind the spring clip.

Fit the breathing bags onto the injector jets.

Make sure the opening of the breathing bag fits securely over the plastic cone. This will prevent the breathing bag from sticking together during the cleaning and drying process and ensure it is thoroughly cleaned internally.

The breathing bag is attached correctly when it cannot dislodge itself from the plastic cone.

Remove the stopper from breathing masks which have a closable air cushion. Expel as much air as possible and then replace the stopper.

Several breathing masks can be placed onto one breathing bag injector jet.

If bellows are to be processed, one of the E 466 injector jets must be replaced with a special E 431 injector jet for bellows which has a larger support ring.

To do this:

Usea7mmspanner to unscrew one

of the E 466 injector jets. Then screw the E 431 injector jet into

the vacated position and tighten with the spanner.

Fit the bellows onto the E 431

injector jet.

A special combination of E 464 and E 454 jets (optional extra) is required for processing laryngeal masks.

Remove the height adjustment spring

from injector jet E 454. Screw injector jet E 454 onto the

E 464 holder. Now screw the jet combination into

the position released by one of the E 466 injector jets and tighten with a 7 mm spanner.

Expel as much air as possible from

the laryngeal mask and the balloon lead.

Attach the laryngeal mask to the jet

combination. Attach the balloon lead with the valve

to the spring clip.

After processing, check that

items are airtight and function correctly.

To process laryngeal masks with two tubes, exchange one of the injector jets with a spring clip for a short injector jet (supplied separately). To do this:

Usinga9mmscrewdriver, unscrew the injector jet with the spring clip.

Screw the short injector jet into the holder, and tighten with the screwdriver.

^ Push the cone and spring clip up the

long injector jet so that the longer tube on the laryngeal mask on the short injector jets is not kinked.

Expel as much air as possible from the laryngeal mask and the balloon lead.

Attach the laryngeal mask to the two injector jets.

Attach the balloon lead with the valve to the spring clip.

^ Arrange small items, such as

Y-pieces, couplings or connectors, in insert E 507.

Lightweight items should be secured to prevent them blocking the spray arm or being caught up with the magnetic strip on the automatic mobile unit recognition system.
