Dräger Medical says its Polaris 100/200 surgical light heads offer ‘everything users need for reliable operating room illumination’, being ‘equally suited to minor procedure and dedicated endoscopy room applications’.
The lights will provide up to 160,000 lux ‘of quality illumination’. Dräger said: “The cardanic and suspension systems for the Polaris 100/200 light heads were designed for maximum mobility, and give users a choice of a single light head or, where more illumination is required, enable them to combine two light heads of their choice. The light heads are designed for years of carefree operation and minimal maintenance, offering exceptional reliability and price /performance ratio.”
The ‘classic round design’ includes integrated handles for ‘non-sterile personnel’, and touch panel controls for easy handling/operation. Theatre personnel can position the Polaris 100/200 easily with the central sterile handle. Each of the four clearly marked control buttons performs a single function, and an optional, wall-mounted control panel is also available. The smooth, seamless casing makes cleaning quick and simple, while lightweight construction ensures ‘effortless’ positioning.
In addition to the ceiling-mounted system, the Polaris 100/200 range is also available as a mobile unit.
