GANDY-45: Automated Endoscope Reprocessing

Setting the New Standard in Endoscope Reprocessing

Effective reprocessing of flexible endoscopes remains one of the most critical challenges in infection prevention. Their complex structure and sensitivity to harsh sterilization methods require precise, standardized procedures to ensure patient safety and avoid cross-contamination.

The GANDY-45 Automated Endoscope Reprocessor, a single-chamber system, introduces a new generation of technology designed to address these challenges with enhanced safety, efficiency, and reliability. As a Class IIb medical device compliant with EN ISO 15883 standards, it delivers validated processes for washing, high-level disinfection, and chemical sterilization of thermolabile endoscopes.

A key differentiator of the GANDY-45 is its comprehensive safety approach. The system integrates a closed-loop design to prevent chemical exposure, an active carbon filter for fume removal, and antimicrobial-coated components to reduce contamination risks. At the same time, advanced monitoring systems control temperature and pressure in real time, protecting delicate endoscopes throughout the reprocessing cycle.
Operational efficiency is another core strength. The unit can process up to three endoscopes per hour per chamber, while optimizing resource consumption through reduced water and chemical usage. Its built-in drying system eliminates the need for an external air supply, simplifying installation and lowering energy demand.

Digital integration further enhances workflow management, with barcode traceability, automated reporting, and remote monitoring capabilities that help minimize downtime and improve service responsiveness.

By combining advanced infection control features with sustainable and cost-efficient operation, the GANDY-45 represents a significant step forward in endoscope reprocessing, supporting healthcare facilities in maintaining high standards of safety and performance.
