SUCTION PUMP
KV-6
The KV-6 Suction Pump is the successor to the KV-5 pump. It is designed for endoscopic aspiration and for nonendoscopy applications. The unique flow change buttons allow a fast vacuum build-up with a single touch. It has a 'whisper
mode’ for quiet operation and ‘turbo mode’ for faster suction. The pump connects to an extensive fluid collection system.
Key Benefits
• High Suction Performance
The KV-6 suction pump has vacuum capabilities of up to -95kPa. There are three pre-set speed settings (40l/min, 50l/
min and 60l/min), which enables the operator the flexibility to control the rate of vacuum build-up at a touch of a button.
• Cleaning and hygiene
– Single use collection system allows easy and safe disposal of clinical waste.
– Touch sensitive buttons are easy to clean.
– Disposable bacterial and odour filters.
• Compatibility
Compatible with existing KV-5 accessories and Olympus workstations.
It is ideal for use either mounted on a procedure trolley or as a stand-alone unit. The variable suction control allows
adjustment to meet individual requirements. A high performance pump and motor combination ensure that the unit is
‘whisper quiet’ for any working environment.
