MD-493 Reusable Valve

MD-493 Reusable Valve

The Olympus MD-493 is a medical accessory part used with Olympus endoscopes, specifically a suction (air/water) valve that attaches to the working channel of an endoscope and lets the operator control or enable suction during procedures. It’s a reusable valve that connects to scopes to manage aspiration of fluids while minimizing leakage and ensuring smooth procedural control.

Key Features:

Type of device: Suction/air-water valve for endoscopy equipment — often called a suction valve or air/water/suction valve.

Use: Mounted on the endoscope’s working channel to enable and control suction of fluids (and in some designs also water/air). It helps clear the visual field or remove secretions during endoscopic procedures.

Reusable: The valve is designed to be reused and sterilized between procedures rather than disposed of after one use.

Compatibility: Often used with various Olympus flexible scopes (e.g., bronchoscope models like OES-20, ENF-T3 and others) and designed to fit standard suction/working channels.

Clinical context: Commonly used in gastroenterology, pulmonology, ENT, urology and other specialties to support suction during diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopic procedures.
