The Germlyser^® G is specially used for manual final rinsing of endoscopes. This reusable water filter is a point-of-use, sterile filter with a 0.2 μm hollow-fibre membrane which displays retention of at least 7 log units¹, thereby offering reliable protection of patients from infections by all critical water-borne germs such as legionella, pseudomonas, staphylococci or stenotrophomonas over a service life of up to 4 weeks and depending on the respective water quality. The chemical composition of the water is not altered.

The hygienic design and the use of bacteriostatic material in the housing and bactericidal material at the filter outlet prevent retrograde contamination incurred by splash water or physical contact. On expiry of the service life, the respective filter must be changed and returned for reprocessing. This filter change is easy to complete thanks to installation of the appropriate quick-release coupling.

An individual product marking on each filter guarantees traceability and facilitates the documentation process within the framework of hospital hygiene procedures.

Germlyser^® G is available as CE-marked medical device.
