Abstract: A fluid distributor for use with a reprocessing device for reprocessing a surgical instrument having a plurality of channels, including: a routing body having a plurality of connections corresponding to the channels; and a switching body movably disposed in the routing body, the switching body having an interior supply line connected to a fluid reservoir for selectively providing a fluid to one or more of the connections. The switching body can be configured such that, in a first position of the switching body relative to the routing body, the connections of the routing body are each in fluid communication with the supply line of the switching body and in at least a second position of the switching body relative to the fluid routing body less than all of the connections of the routing body are in fluid communication with the supply line of the switching body.
