Benefits

LED technology in the OR

LEDs are highly efficient light sources for surgical applications. Dräger has now combined the advantages of this innovative light source with a new, extremely compact, lightweight yet robust design that includes individual lens reflectors for enhanced output and shadow control. Even the little heat produced by the LEDs is regulated and dissipated by an integrated Thermal Management System. The maximum light head temperature (upper surface) will not exceed 35 °C*. With an average operational lifetime of 50,000 hours, this LED technology is as reliable as affordable.

* At a room temperature of 20 °C.

The Polaris 100

The all new, highly compact Polaris® 100 features 48 LEDs with an output range of 40,000 to 120,000 lux. A special mode provides ambient light from a single LED to support minimal invasive procedures. The sleek yet very sturdy light head weights just 13 kg and makes positioning exremely easy and comfortable. Without any moving parts in the light head this system requires almost no maintenance. With a colour-rendering index Ra of 95 and a colour-rendering index R9 93, the Polaris system offers you a contrast-rich and natural illumination without compromising red tones. The Polaris 100/200 lighting system can be equipped with warm white, neutral white or cold white (4,400 K, 5,000 K or 5,600 K) LED lights.

The Polaris 200

Without changing the external dimensions or design, the Polaris 200 gives you additional 18 LEDs for a total of 66. This translates to a maximum output of 160,000 lux. The light intesity can be easily dimmed down to
40,000 lux. Color temperature and rendering index are identical to those of the Polaris 100.

Each LED is equipped with its own lens reflector system. The homogenous light column of both lights provides the surgeon with a shadow-controlled, contour-rich, natural color view of the surgical field.

Compact design, simple operation

The classic round design includes integrated handles for nonsterile personnel and touch panel controls for easy handling and operation. Sterile personnel can position the Polaris 100/200 easily with the central sterile handle. You can either choose between the sterilisable or sterile handle, depending on your infection prevention concept. 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 its lightweight construction ensures practically effortless positioning.

Easy installation and maintenance

The straightforward design philosophy of the Polaris 100/200 makes installation and maintenance very easy. The light heads are controlled by the proven Powerline Communication (PLC) system.

The mobile Polaris 100/200

The mobile Polaris light can be used as an additional single light in the OR – for example, for cardiovascular interventions where the patient has to undergo several procedures at the same time. Of course the high-quality mobile light can also be used in the ER or in treatment rooms. The mobile Polaris 100/200 is especially useful when it is not possible to install a fixed, ceiling-mounted light due to unsuitable infrastructure. The trolley features a fully closed cover, which ensures the light is easy to clean. The rear double castors are equipped with locking brakes.

With the Polaris light your hospital is equipped with state of the art, high performance LED technology combined with a functional, high quality design. The Polaris is approved as both a surgical light and a treatment light and is available with a choice of light intensity and colour temperature. With up to 160,000 lux and a smooth cardanic mounting for exact positioning, the mobile version has no functional limitations. Height adjustment supported by pneumatic springs allows for effortless adaptation to transport and operating conditions. In the fully extended position a working height of 2,175 mm is reached under the light head – ideal also for tall surgeons. The transport height of the Polaris 100/200 Mobile, however, is only 1,850 mm.

In the event of a mains power failure, the integrated battery provides uninterrupted power to the light with at least three hours guaranteed supply. As soon as the battery falls below a charging state of 25 % – this equals a remaining operating time of approx. 45 minutes – you will be warned by an integrated, acoustic reminder message. LED status indicators on the trolley also show the status of the power supply and state of charge of the battery.

The Dräger Alcotest^® 6820 med is a special version of the proven Dräger Alcotest^® series. It has been designed for diagnostic applications, where the CE marking for medical products is necessary and offers a variety of features that ease daily practices within the medical field.

The Polaris^® 50 is ideal for everyday hospital life, which is becoming more and more challenging. Whether it is in the examination room, in intensive care or in the OR-induction room – the Polaris^® 50 always provides high-contrast, colour-stable light. In addition, the treatment light is flexible to handle and easy to use so that you can make the right decisions more quickly.

Main benefits

The Polaris 50 meets the highest requirements for high-quality lighting in medical locations. LEDs of the newest generation generate a light intensity of up to 60,000 lux. With a colour temperature of 4,500 K in the neutral white range, the Polaris gives you a colour-true view of the treatment area. The colour rendering index of Ra = 95 and R9 = 90 also guarantees high visibility of details. Colour nuances in the illuminated tissue therefore appear natural and rich in contrast so that you can easily focus on your work.

The Polaris 50 is a powerful solution for everyday use. Thanks to its low maintenance requirements and high reliability, the light system guarantees many years of operation at minimal costs. For example: The LEDs reduce the heat intensity at the light head and thus increase its efficiency.

They consume only a fraction of the energy consumed by conventional halogen bulbs. The installed high-performance LEDs have a service life of up to 30,000 hours, enabling significant cost reductions.

“Versatile in its function and area of application” – this is the motto of the Polaris 50 minor surgical light. You decide where and how you want to use the light: as a stand- alone ceiling, wall or mobile version or in combination with Dräger supply units at a central mounting. The numerous combi- nation options enable you to save space and design workplaces from the treatment room via the OR to the intensive care unit exactly for their specific purpose.

Arm System

The Polaris 50 arm system – consisting of axis and spring arm – enables you to position the light anywhere you want. In addition, three joints of the Polaris 50 can be rotated a full 360°. This gives you freedom of movement and saves time. Thanks to its sophisticated mechanical system, the light can be easily operated or adjusted with one hand.

Two adaptation options are available for different space requirements: the ceiling tube, which can be individually shortened, and an optional suspended ceiling adapter for installation on suspended ceilings.

Functional Design

The functional design of the Polaris 50 convinces with its compact form and robust components. It enables quick and efficient cleaning. The handle can be removed and sterilised. Individual components and the LED module itself can be professionally serviced by a Dräger service technician if required.

The light intensity is continuously adjust- able via a dimming wheel which can be easily operated with one hand without accidentally changing the position of the light.

Workplace Design

The best light is useless if it is not where you need it. For this reason, the Dräger Polaris 50 system is extremely flexible and can be mounted almost anywhere – as a standalone version on ceilings and walls (e.g. in treatment rooms) and suspended in combination with Dräger supply units (e.g. in the recovery room). Combination with a display (e.g. for emergency rooms) is also possible.

In addition, installing the Polaris 50 on a three-arm mounting system enables you to make the most of confined spaces (e.g. in the intensive care unit). The Polaris 50 is also available as a mobile version that can be used as an additional treatment light in general rooms, the OR section or operating rooms. The trolley of the mobile light is equipped with practical locking brakes and hooks for the power cable.

The Evita^® V300 is a scalable and versatile device which offers high ventilation quality. To meet and master the changing conditions and challenges of your everyday hospital work you need flexible equipment with versatile opportunities.
