The DARAY X100 examination light is the perfect choice for value and performance. This examination light has a flexible gooseneck, remains stationary once positioned. The clinician can easily turn the examination light off and on using the button located on the head for ease of use. Various mounting options available make this examination light popular in GP surgeries and clinics.
LEDs (light emitting diodes) have been around for a long time. Recently this technology has become leading-edge in the field of lighting - a breakthrough technological solution to the inherent problems of the incandescent light bulb.
We have taken the technology and developed it further to provide high definition lighting solutions with no infrared, high brightness, low environmental impact, low power consumption, no toxic chemicals and a long operating life.
Colour Temperature
What is Colour Temperature?
The Colour Temperature of a light source is an important consideration for Surgical use.
Colours are conventionally expressed in Kelvin (K), a unit of measure based on the Kelvin scale.
Colours over 5,000K are higher on the Kelvin scale and are known as ‘cool’ colours, whilst colours of a lower value on the same scale are called ‘warm’ colours.
Visually, a higher value gives the appearance of ‘blueish-white’ - similar to a cold, stark, clinical setting (think: kitchen/supermarket lighting!) – this has been proven to increase productivity and visual acuity, keeping you alert and focused. These colours provide the Surgeon with the truest tissue colour rendition.
A value at the lower end of the scale gives an appearance of ‘warm’ tones (think: lighting for comfortable settings such as a living room/bedroom). For a Surgical application, a warmer tone is useful for accurate tissue differentiation, as the red values (R9) found in blood and tissues appear more pronounced.
