SITE REQUIREMENTS
The purpose of this section is to provide the customer with requirements that need to be met to ensure the ADVANTAGE
PLUS®Endoscope Reprocessor will be properly installed. Checklist provided in Appendix C.
By signing below Customer acknowledges that:
1. Customer reviewed these Site Requirements for the ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessor(s) indicated in
this document.
2. The customer assumes complete responsibility for meeting each of the specications and requirements set forth
in the Site Requirements, to ensure proper installation and performance of the ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope
Reprocessor(s). Failure of the customer to comply with these Site Requirements and any deviation from the
specications set forth herein may compromise the functionality of the reprocessor(s), and/or may cause
operational issues which will not be covered by the Cantel Medical warranty, and are hereby disclaimed by
Cantel Medical.
3. The customer assumes complete responsibility for meeting each of the specications and requirements set
forth in the Site Requirements by the agreed upon installation date by Customer and Cantel Medical. If the
Cantel Medical installation team encounters any delays due to site requirements not meeting specications and
requirements, the Customer will be charged $265.00/hr for stand-by fees, until site requirements are met and
installation activity resumes; or, if it is determined that the delay results in rescheduling the installation to a later
date, the Customer will be charged for all expenses (ights, lodging, and car rental, if applicable), and travel
($200.00/hr) and labor time ($265.00/hr) related to the return installation dispatch.
4. If installation is canceled or moved 48hrs prior to the agreed upon installation date, no fee will be charged.

IMPORTANT! It is the responsibility of the customer to meet ALL requirements to ensure
proper installation of the ADVANTAGE PLUS®Endoscope Reprocessor.
Water Supply refer to Appendix G
WARNING: An emergency eye wash valve WILL NOT meet the water temperature
specications for the ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessor and should not be used.
• The water supply must be connected to a thermostatic mixing valve set to provide an on-demand water temperature of
35°C ± 2°C (95°F ± 4°F). One mixing valve per reprocessor is REQUIRED.
o The mixing valve must be accessible and located near the pre-lter to aid in adjustment. The mixing valve must include
a thermometer followed by a bypass valve to a drain.
o The ADVANTAGE PLUS Reprocessor requires a thermostatic mixing valve with a temperature range of 35°C ± 2°C
(95°F ± 4°F). It is the responsibility of the facility to purchase, install and maintain this device. PRODUCT BULLETIN:
SUGGESTED LIST OF THERMOSTATIC MIXING VALVES FOR ADVANTAGE PLUS ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR
(Appendix E)
o Facility water pressure and temperature can vary greatly. Most thermostatic mixing valves require a pressure differential
of less than 10 PSI (0.70 bar) and a minimum temperature differential of 45°F (7°C) between the hot and cold-water
supplies for optimum operation (see specications of the chosen mixing valve). Therefore, Cantel Medical requires
the addition of pressure regulators on each of the hot and cold-water supply lines prior to entering the thermostatic
mixing valve as well as temperature and pressure gauges on both the hot and cold supply lines. It is the responsibility
of the facility to purchase, install and maintain these devices. Temperature and pressure gauges on the incoming water
lines, provide a means of monitoring the water system of the facility should water temperature issues arise. Consult a
qualied plumber to assist in determining the proper regulators and temperature and pressure gauges to use.
NOTE: Mixing Valve should be located within 4 feet of the reprocessor and be easily accessible
to operators for adjustments.
NOTE: After the mixing valve and before the pre-lter assembly, a path to a drain with a shutoff
valve MUST be installed so the operator can run water through the mixing valve if the water
temperature falls too low and needs to be brought to temperature. This may occur primarily in
colder winter climates after an extended time of non-use.
• The incoming waterline must be a minimum of 1/2” ID providing a ow rate of 1.32 GPM and a Dynamic water pressure
between 40 to 87 PSI at the rst gauge of the Pre-Filtration Unit.
• Water consumption per side is approximately 8 gallons/cycle for a standard endoscope disinfection cycle and 13 gallons/
cycle for an endoscope disinfection cycle with a detergent wash.
o Water consumption for the ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessor will vary depending on the incoming water
temperatures. The reprocessor will extend the initial ush to allow the water to come up to temperature to meet the
minimum required temperature of the disinfectant.

• The pre-lter assembly (Appendix G) is wall mounted and has the dimensions of 26” H x 38” W x 6” D. It is the
responsibility of the customer to mount and plumb the pre-lter assembly.
o The incoming water connection to the pre-lter assembly is 1/2” NPT on the right-hand side. All ttings and hoses for
the output of the pre-lter assembly are included. The pre-lter assembly must be within ten feet and in the same room
as the ADVANTAGE PLUS®Endoscope Reprocessor. The water supply hose has a maximum working length of ten feet
and cannot be lengthened.
o A shut-off valve must be installed before the pre-ltration system. It is important that the valve be mounted within reach
of the operator.
o One pre-lter system per ADVANTAGE PLUS Reprocessor is required.
o Pre-Filter Assembly must be accessible to allow for easy lter changes.
• Ensure water hardness is less than 12 gpg (200 ppm) for optimal performance
• Potable water is the minimum standard.
• De-ionized water (DI water), due to its corrosive nature cannot be used in ADVANTAGE PLUS Reprocessor
• Reverse Osmosis (RO water) can be used in ADVANTAGE PLUS Reprocessor. If RO water is utilized, the pre-lter system
must still be used. Consult a qualied plumber to assist with sourcing proper mixing valves and components to be used
with RO water.
NOTE: The ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessors do not require backow protection
for the incoming water supply, nor is a backow protection device installed in the reprocessor.
If building or plumbing codes require backow protection, then please consult your local codes,
standards and/or guidelines, for applicable requirements.
Drain refer to Appendix G
NOTE: ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessors are Gravity Drained.
• A vented drain system capable of draining 3.17 GPM, 18” or less from the oor will ensure the proper operation of the
ADVANTAGE PLUS Endoscope Reprocessor. The supplied drain line has a 1” ID, 1 3/8” OD and is 3 feet long. Any
additional required length will be customer supplied.
NOTE: Drain needs to accommodate the Bypass valve output line/pipe as well as the
Advantage Reprocessor Drain Line.
