Triple Light Head
Triple Light Head

Application

The Triple Light Head is commonly found in Heart rooms where two light heads are positioned over the chest with the third light head being used to illuminate the leg area when stripping out veins.  The triple is also a favorite in trauma rooms should there be a need to work on multiple sites at the same time.  With 137,000 Lux output per light head and a healthy 10 inch pattern, this light is equipped to handle the most complex case.  Another popular alternative to the triple light is to pair a single light head with a dual light head.

Features of the Triple Light Head:

  • On/Off, Pattern Size adjustment and Light Intensity can all be adjusted by the surgeon from within the sterile field.
  • 137,000 Lux (12,700 Footcandles) light intensity from a single 180 Watt Bulb per Light Head (for a total of 411,000 Lux).
  • Back-up bulb that illuminates within milliseconds when the primary bulb fails.
  • Spare bulbs are conveniently located in the wall control housing for easy access.
  • Sealed light head combined with ultra cool operation at only 3.71 µW/cm2/Fc
  • Color correct light optimized at 4,300°K to ensure accurate patient assessment.
  • Superior shadow control -- the light head will tolerate as much as 70% of the emitted light being blocked before a noticeable change in pattern intensity is witnessed.
  • Drift-free counterbalance arms that are free to rotate continuously at every joint.

With several thousand surgical lights installed in OR's throughout the United States and even more installed worldwide, NUVO's time tested design is backed by one of the best warranties in the industry to ensure many years of trouble free operation.
Sterile Light Controls Sterile Light Controls
You can adjust the light intensity right from within the sterile field.  A button located on the end of the sterile handle can be easily depressed using your finger or thumb to increase or decrease light intensity settings.  The handle can be sterilized or will accept every brand of disposable glove on the market without compromising operation.  Pressing and holding the button will turn the light On/Off, while rotating the handle will adjust the pattern size from 5.5 -- 10 inches.
Easy Maintenance Easy Maintenance
Every light head is equipped with two bulbs (the primary bulb and the back-up bulb).  When the primary bulb fails, the back-up bulb lights up automatically to ensure continuous uninterrupted lighting throughout the case.  In fact the change-over is virtually unnoticeable to the surgeon which is why each light head is equipped with three LED indicators to alert the Circulator to change the bulb.

Bulbs are also accessible without the use of any tools and can be changed literally within a matter of seconds.
Spare Bulb Storage Spare Bulb Storage
Yet another "first" from NUVO is the convenient location for the spare bulbs.  No more hunting around the supply closet!  Two spare bulbs are always close at hand and are located in the wall control panel.  A hinged flap conceals the spare bulbs making them readily available 'in the room' between cases if required.
