Rider 40B Washer Disinfector – Automatic Double-Tank Endoscope Reprocessing System
The Rider 40B Washer Disinfector is an advanced automatic endoscope washer-disinfector designed to support the cleaning and disinfection of compatible flexible endoscopes in hospitals, endoscopy centers, and medical reprocessing facilities.
Manufactured by SHINVA, the Rider 40B features a double-tank configuration, full-immersion cleaning technology, independent booster pumps, and real-time irrigation flow monitoring. Its automated operation is designed to support consistent and efficient endoscope reprocessing while reducing repetitive manual tasks.
The system incorporates dedicated cleaning and disinfection functions for endoscope surfaces and accessible internal channels, making it a practical solution for healthcare facilities requiring organized instrument reprocessing.
Key Features & Benefits
1. Full-Immersion Cleaning and Disinfection
The Rider 40B uses a full-immersion approach designed to immerse the endoscope and the relevant surfaces of the decontamination chamber, including the underside of the cover. This helps provide comprehensive cleaning coverage and minimize areas that may otherwise be difficult to reach.
2. Double-Tank Configuration
Features two decontamination tanks to support flexible endoscope reprocessing workflows. Each tank is equipped with an independent booster pump for dedicated channel irrigation.
3. Independent Booster Pump System
The individual booster pumps support pressurized irrigation through compatible endoscope channels, including biopsy/suction, air/water, and auxiliary channels.
4. Real-Time Irrigation Flow Monitoring
The system monitors irrigation flow and provides automatic alerts when irrigation failures are detected, helping operators identify potential channel-cleaning problems.
5. Integrated Leak Testing
The manufacturer’s product documentation describes leak testing before liquid contact and monitoring during operation, with an alarm and process interruption when a qualifying leak is detected.
6. Advanced Water Filtration
Product documentation describes a water filtration arrangement that includes a 0.2 μm final-rinse filter, intended to reduce contamination risks associated with rinse water.
7. Air and Alcohol Drying Options
Supports air drying and alcohol-assisted drying programs for compatible endoscope channels, subject to the manufacturer’s instructions and approved reprocessing protocols.
8. Automated Reprocessing Programs
The Rider 40B provides selectable operating programs for cleaning, disinfection, drying, and equipment self-disinfection, helping medical personnel organize routine reprocessing tasks.
Applications
The Rider 40B Washer Disinfector is intended for reprocessing compatible flexible endoscopes in clinical settings such as:
- Hospital endoscopy departments
- Gastrointestinal endoscopy centers
- Colonoscopy and gastroscopy units
- Bronchoscopy departments
- Medical instrument reprocessing facilities
- Specialized healthcare disinfection units
Instrument compatibility and validated disinfection procedures must be confirmed before use.
