く、常に安定した消毒効果を確実に得ることができる。Therefore, in the above configuration, during the disinfection process of the endoscope 3 in the cleaning tank 2, the three-way switching valve 20 is connected to each port 20a.
.
A predetermined amount of disinfectant is sequentially filled into the cleaning tank 2 through the cleaning tank 2, and the endoscope 3 is immersed in this disinfectant to be disinfected. In this case, the temperature of the disinfectant solution accumulated in the cleaning tank 2 is measured by the temperature sensor 27.
is constantly detected by When the detected temperature of the disinfectant is lower than a predetermined set temperature, the controller 25 turns on the heater 26, and the heater 26 heats the disinfectant. Further, when the detected temperature of the disinfectant is higher than a predetermined set temperature, the heater 26 is turned off by the control unit 25,
Heating of the disinfectant solution is stopped. Therefore, the controller 25 turns on and off the heater 26 based on the detected temperature of the disinfectant.
Since the off operation is controlled and the temperature of the disinfectant in the endoscope 3 can always be maintained at the appropriate temperature, the temperature of the disinfectant in the cleaning tank 2 is lower than the appropriate temperature and the disinfection effect is improved. There is no risk that the disinfectant solution in the cleaning tank 2 will become insufficient, or that the disinfectant solution in the cleaning tank 2 will be heated too much and have an adverse effect on the endoscope 3 in the cleaning Wi 2 or the main body 1, or that the disinfectant solution will deteriorate. A stable disinfection effect can be reliably obtained.

にしてもよい。In addition, the set temperature of the disinfectant is appropriately set based on various conditions such as the relationship between the disinfectant effect of the disinfectant and the temperature, the relationship between the deterioration rate of the disinfectant and the temperature, and the durability of the device body 1 and the endoscope 3. It is now possible to do so. In this case, a configuration may be adopted in which the temperature of the disinfectant solution can be arbitrarily set using a control lever of the control panel 29 or the like.
さらに、温度センサ２７によって検出された検出温度を
表示部２８に表示させる構成にしてもよい。Further, the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 27 may be displayed on the display section 28.

表示させる構成にしてもよい。In this case, if the temperature of the disinfectant does not rise to the set temperature within a certain period of time after the start of the disinfection process for the endoscope 3, the disinfection effect may be insufficient, so the temperature of the disinfectant may be lower than the set temperature. The configuration may also be such that the display section 28 displays a warning display indicating that the temperature is low. In addition, if the lH degree of the disinfectant is abnormally higher than the set temperature, the disinfectant in the cleaning tank 2 is recovered to the disinfectant tank 17 by switching the three-way switching valve 20, or At the same time, a warning display indicating that the temperature of the disinfectant solution is abnormally higher than the set temperature may be displayed on the display section 28.

A heater 26 and a temperature sensor 27 are provided inside the disinfectant tank 17, and a second heater 31 and a second temperature sensor 32 are also provided inside the disinfectant tank 17. A configuration may also be adopted in which a fan 33 is connected to the control section 25 and introduces outside air into the apparatus main body 1 to prevent a rise in temperature within the apparatus main body 1. In this case, the disinfectant in the disinfectant tank 17 can be kept heated to a certain temperature before the disinfection process starts, so the temperature of the disinfectant can be maintained at a low temperature even immediately after the disinfection process starts. Therefore, a stable disinfection effect can always be obtained as soon as the disinfection process starts.
