SOAIM SA Series High-Performance Multifunctional Veterinary Endoscope

Product Overview

The SOAIM SA Series is a high-performance multifunctional veterinary endoscope designed for clinical practice in small-animal hospitals. Developed by Shenzhen SOAIM Technology Co., Ltd on 13 years of industrial endoscope manufacturing experience, the SA Series offers two host configurations — the SA-Pro (built-in 5-inch HD display, 0.5 kg) and the SA-Air (wireless handle connecting to phones or tablets via Wi-Fi, 550 g) — sharing the same probe system. Probes in Φ4 mm and Φ6 mm diameters are hot-swapped in 3 seconds via Type-C connector, enabling one host to serve gastroscopy, rhinoscopy, laryngoscopy, and bronchoscopy without separate capital investment for each discipline.

Key Features

• Dual operating modes: SA-Pro (built-in screen, standalone) and SA-Air (wireless, smartphone/tablet display) — same probe, two workflows, one investment.
• Multi-probe platform: Φ4 mm (0.16 MP / 0.5 MP) and Φ6 mm (1 MP) probes swap in 3 seconds via Type-C release button; one host covers respiratory and GI endoscopy.
• High-definition imaging: 0.16 MP / 0.5 MP / 1 MP camera modules with 120°–140° field of view and 3–50 mm depth of field; 8× local magnification zoom for transient lesion detail.
• 360° omnidirectional steering: mechanical joystick drives 360° all-way articulation with 180°–210° tip bending angle — reduces blind spots in tortuous anatomy.
• Modular instrument channel: Y-valve integrates air insufflation, water injection, suction, and instrument port; supports disposable biopsy forceps and cytology brushes.
• IP67 probe waterproofing: insertion tube rated IP67; medical-grade polyurethane tube is flexible, kink-resistant, and disinfection-compatible.
• 5000 mAh removable battery: 3.7 V/5000 mAh lithium pack, ≥4 h continuous runtime, Type-C fast charge (≤2.5 h), hot-swappable for uninterrupted clinic sessions.
• Connectivity: Micro HDMI out for split-screen external display; Wi-Fi (SA-Air); USB data export; TF card expansion to 32 GB; OTA firmware upgrade.

Clinical Applications

Workflow & Installation Notes

• Probe swap: disconnect current probe by pressing the Type-C release button, attach the new probe — full exchange completes in under 3 seconds without tools.
• Instrument channel: connect the Y-valve to the probe port; attach a manual air balloon for cavity insufflation or a syringe for water injection and suction; pass disposable biopsy forceps or cytology brushes through the instrument port under direct vision.
• External display (SA-Pro): connect a Micro HDMI cable to the side port for split-screen simultaneous display on a room monitor or laptop.
• Wireless use (SA-Air): pair the handle to a smartphone or tablet via Wi-Fi and install the dedicated APP; core functions including freeze, capture, brightness, and image management are controlled through the APP.
• Battery: slide the battery door to remove the 5000 mAh pack for charging or hot-swap; charge via Type-C (compatible with standard 5V chargers); estimated charge time ≤2.5 h.
• Storage: insert a TF card (up to 32 GB) for on-device image/video storage; transfer files to PC via USB data cable.
• Disinfection: probe tube (IP67) may be immersed; host body (IP54) wipe only — do not immerse the host.

Why Choose the SOAIM SA Series

• Workflow efficiency: 3-second probe swap eliminates the need for multiple dedicated scopes; one platform covers GI, respiratory, and ENT applications.
• Clinical accuracy: 120°–140° wide field of view and 8× magnification ensure transient mucosal lesions and small foreign bodies are not missed.
• Dual-mode flexibility: SA-Pro for standalone table-side diagnosis; SA-Air for ward-side or cage-side examination without a monitor trolley.
• Practice economics: single host investment covers multiple examination types; modular probe replacement reduces per-procedure capital cost versus single-use or single-purpose scopes.

FAQ

Can both the Φ4 mm and Φ6 mm probes be used on either SA-Pro or SA-Air?

Yes. Both probes use the same Type-C connection and are compatible with both host units. Probe choice depends on anatomy: Φ4 mm for feline gastroscopy or nasal cavities; Φ6 mm for canine gastroscopy where higher 1 MP resolution is preferred.

Does the SA-Air require a separate tablet — what APP is used?

SOAIM provides a dedicated companion APP for image display, freeze, capture, and case management. The SA-Air connects via Wi-Fi to any iOS or Android smartphone or tablet. A phone bracket is integrated into the handle grip.

What disinfection protocol is recommended for the probe tube?

The probe is rated IP67 and can be immersed in cold disinfectant solutions compatible with polyurethane materials. The host body (IP54) should be wiped with a damp cloth or alcohol swab — do not immerse. Always follow local clinical disinfection guidelines.

Is the biopsy channel reusable or does it require disposable accessories?

The instrument channel (Y-valve) is reusable and autoclavable. Biopsy forceps and cytology brushes inserted through the channel are single-use disposables; compatible sizes are available from SOAIM or standard veterinary endoscopy accessory suppliers.

What is the minimum patient size the Φ4 mm probe can be used in?

The Φ4 mm probe is suitable for feline and small-breed canine patients. For nasal and tracheal examination in cats, the probe diameter is within the clinical range for most adult feline patients. Specific suitability should be confirmed by the attending clinician based on individual anatomy.
