THE OVERHEAD LIGHT
WHAT IS NEW IN OPERATING LIGHT?
Lighting in the operating suite is achieved by the use of main overhead fluorescent lights, Halogen lamps are used within the overhead surgical lights.
Halogen lamps have a higher (measurement of the hue that a light emits) than incandescent light.
The halogen light emits a pale bluish cast that is less fatiguing to the eyes. Auxiliary Surgical spotlights placed at spots for maximum effect.
The operation light produces 100,000 lux strong homogenous light. Camera system is equipped with a color temperature of 4,300 K natural resolution. All camera functions can be operated from a distance by means of an optional remote control device. In some operating suites, closed-circuit television cameras are mounted within the framework of the surgical lights, so that the course of the operation can be viewed by students or auxiliary personnel outside the OT.
The mobile hospital light has a leak proof storage battery that is recharged during normal operation. In the power loss the lamp automatically switches to battery operation, enabling examinations or operations to continue for up to five hours.
