Karl Storz Telecam SL II Endoscopy Camera System Analysis Report

Device Identification

The device examined in the visuals is an endoscopy camera control unit (CCU) used for medical imaging purposes and a compatible camera head. The set consists of the main processor unit and an integrated wired camera head. The product is the electronic component of optical systems that provide image transmission in surgical operations or diagnostic examinations.

Brand and Model

The logos and model names on the product are clear and legible. As a result of the examination, the device’s identification details are as follows:

• Brand: KARL STORZ
• Main Unit Model: Telecam SL II
• Main Unit Reference Number: 202130 20
• Camera Head Brand: KARL STORZ
• Camera Head Type: Single-chip endoscopy camera head (Compatible with the “2021…” series shown in the visual).

Originality

The device’s front panel, font characters, use of the “STORZ” logo, and characteristic blue-gray color tones are fully compatible with original Karl Storz production standards. The connection socket structure and brand labels on the camera head are industrial standard. Visual data confirms that the product is an original Karl Storz production.

General Condition and State

The device is generally in used condition. It has the appearance of a second-hand medical device. The metal casing maintains its integrity, but cosmetic wear is present. It is observed that the device is not “scrap” or “for parts” but a product removed from a functional system, bearing signs of use.

Physical Deformation Examination

The detailed physical examination conducted on the device revealed the following aspects:

• Upper Casing Edges: Paint peeling and abrasions are present on the front upper corner of the metal cover and at the edge joint points. The gray color of the metal has appeared in these areas.
• Front Panel: The plastic/membrane front surface appears clean. No fading of buttons or symbols has been observed.
• Casing Surface: Slight scratches and usage-related marks are present on the top surface, but no deep dents or dings have been detected.
• Cable and Sockets: There are no visible tears or crushes in the outer insulation of the camera cable. However, since the cable is second-hand, it retains its form (slightly curved).

Quantity Information

A total of 2 (two) main parts are present in the visuals:

• 1 unit Karl Storz Telecam SL II Main Unit (Console)
• 1 unit Integrated wired camera head with connector

Electronic and Mechanical Components

As a result of the visual analysis, the condition of the electronic and mechanical parts is as follows:

• Power Switch: The green illuminated power (O/I) switch on the left side of the front panel appears mechanically in place and robust.
• Connector Input: The camera input port on the front right side of the device is clean; no deformation is observed in the pin slots.
• Camera Head Buttons: The blue buttons numbered 1 and 2 on the camera head appear intact. No significant wear is noticeable on the plastic coating of the buttons.
• Focus/Zoom Ring: The optical coupling (coupler) mechanism at the front of the camera head retains its metallic luster.

Accessories

The accessories included with the device are listed below. Other than these, power cables or video transmission cables are not present in the visuals.

• Camera Head and Cable: The original camera accessory, black, with thick insulation and a special-pinned end, is present.

Labels and Technical Information

The following technical details have been obtained from the labels and prints on the device:

• Console Model Code: 202130 20
• Camera Head Serial No (Example): GIA012130 (Read on the ring of the camera head).
• Warnings: Security warnings are present on the top cover in English and French regarding the requirement for hospital-grade grounding, that it should not be used in anesthetic environments with explosion risk, and that only authorized service personnel should intervene.
• Certification: A CE mark is visible on the camera head.

Areas of Use

This device is used in hospital operating rooms and outpatient clinics for endoscopic, laparoscopic, or other minimally invasive surgical procedures. It is attached to the tip of a telescope (optic) to transmit images to a monitor. Karl Storz systems are generally widely used in General Surgery, Urology, ENT, and Gynecology branches.

Existing Faults and Potential Risks

Since there is no screen capture in the visuals showing the device operating (power on) or displaying an error, a definitive judgment about its electronic functionality cannot be made. However, physical observation notes are as follows:

• Paint peeling on the device’s outer casing is a cosmetic flaw and is not expected to directly affect operational performance.
• There is always a risk of outer insulation wear at the cable joint points of the camera head, but no opening is observed in this area in the current visuals.
• Due to the absence of a power cable, the buyer will need to provide a suitable (hospital-grade) power cable.
• There are no signs of severe oxidation or rust.

Documents and Manufacturing Year

No invoice, warranty certificate, or user manual is present in the visuals. The model being “Telecam SL II” and its typography indicate that the device belongs to an earlier technology generation (estimated 2000s or early 2010s) rather than a current model, but the exact manufacturing year label is not readable in the visual.
