Abstract

Question related to the influence of the compressor height on the efficiency of the medical pneumohydraulic soft endoscopes was considered. It was stated that geometrical pressure on the system's branch input for forwarding air/water is essentially increased with the increase of distance from the floor to the light source, where the system's compressor is located. In the described version the pressure is increased by 25 per cent, which increase the efficiency of the mentioned above system. The clinical tests proved all those points. It was recommended to place the light source with the compressor possibly higher to the floor level.
