Description

OF-B183: Reliability and Compatibility: a Precision Solution for PENTAX Endoscopes

The Pentax OF-B183 air/water valve has been specifically designed to meet the needs of healthcare professionals in gastroenterology. Intended for use with the brand's 70K, 80K, 85K and C series video endoscopes, it enables effective cleaning of the distal lens and controlled insufflation, thus contributing to optimal visibility during the procedure. Every detail of this valve has been designed to offer perfect integration with compatible endoscope interfaces, ensuring safety and efficiency throughout its use.

Before each use, a thorough check is necessary. The O-rings must be in good condition and correctly positioned. In the event of irregular operation or a feeling of friction, a small amount of silicone oil can be applied to the seals using gloved fingers, taking care to avoid any excess or direct contact with the openings of the device. Proper lubrication ensures smooth operation without compromising the other channels of the endoscope.

The OF-B183 model is autoclavable, allowing reuse in accordance with hospital hygiene protocols. This valve must be sterilised or disinfected to a high standard before first use and after each use. Any suspect or defective components, including worn seals, must be replaced with equivalent parts that have already been sterilised.

Failure to replace a damaged seal may result in cross-contamination or leakage or backflow of body fluids, increasing the risk of complications for the patient. Constant monitoring of the integrity and functionality of the valve is therefore imperative.

Designed to meet the demands of demanding medical environments, the OF-B183 valve is a reliable accessory for all practitioners using compatible PENTAX video endoscopes.

Its simple and rigorous design makes it a discreet but essential part of the endoscopic procedure, ensuring both patient safety and peace of mind for the practitioner.
