A medical device reprocessor is operable to perform a method of cleaning an internal channel of a medical device. The method entails activating a first pump to deliver a detergent to the internal channel for a first predetermined duration, activating a second pump to deliver water to the internal channel to rinse out the detergent for a second predetermined duration, and activating a third pump to deliver pressurized air to the internal channel to purge out the water or detergent contained within the internal channel for a third predetermined duration. Subsequently, the method involves activating a fourth pump to deliver a predetermined volume of disinfectant to the internal channel, and reactivating the third pump to deliver pressurized air to purge out the disinfectant into a chamber. The method repeats filling the internal channel with detergent, water and disinfectant and the subsequent purging of the internal channel with pressurized air.
