FILTER ASSEMBLY FOR A REPROCESSOR

摘要

A reprocessor having a circulation system for circulating a microbial deactivation fluid through a chamber that forms a part of the circulation system. The reprocessor includes a water filtration system for filtering wat er used in the reprocessor. The water filtration system includes a fluid feed line connectable to a source of pressurized water. A first filter and second filter elements are disposed in the fluid feed line for filtering fluids flowing therethrough. The second filter element is downstream from the first filter element and has the capacity to filter particles smaller than the fir st filter element. The fluid feed line forms a fluid path for water entering th e reprocessor, and defines a portion of a path for microbial deactivation flui d circulated through the circulation system.
