Steris Quick Connect Leak Tester Adapter Assembly | Model QLC1725 | Quick-Release Female Coupler Locking Interface | Form-Fitted Waterproof Seal Design for Automated Endoscope Reprocessors (AER) | Explicitly Calibrated for Olympus GI Endoscopes | Brand New Single Unit (1/EA)

The Steris QLC1725 is a professional-grade, hospital-level component expertly engineered to interface with Steris Automated Endoscope Reprocessors (such as the Reliance EPS and Advantage Plus systems) to perform automated leak testing cycles on flexible GI scopes. This high-integrity quick connect assembly bridges the AER terminal line with the specialized air-venting port of Olympus gastrointestinal scopes, ensuring a secure, pressurized mechanical link. The internal valve structure regulates steady low-pressure air flow into the internal scope channels, monitoring pressure drop parameters to detect microscopic structural fissures, skin tears, or sheath perforations before the scope undergoes fluid immersion. Built with premium chemical-resistant materials to withstand heavy exposures to highly concentrated glutaraldehyde, ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA), and peracetic acid high-level disinfectants, this brand-new, factory-sealed adapter serves as a critical sterile processing asset optimized to eliminate cross-contamination and prevent expensive fluid-ingress damage to fiber-optic scope cores.
