The DRE Maxx Luxx Select is configured with all the performance of a major surgical light, but is affordably-priced for use in the E.R., LDRP, outpatient settings and minor procedure rooms. It features:

• Long lasting bulbs: Provide as much as 1,000 hours of uninterrupted light.
• Cool light: The use of a custom-designed IR filter provides maximum comfort during long procedures by reducing radiated heat to a minimum.
• Sterile positioning handle: The handle can be removed for sterilization or used in conjunction with a sterile cover. Plus, the handle incorporates the controls for adjusting the light intensity, on/off switch and pattern adjustment.
• Full articulation: The sturdy, free-moving support arms provide a full range of movement while remaining totally stable once positioned.
• Clean lines: Aesthetics reduce visual clutter and improve cleanability.
• Color-corrected light: Lamps are optimized at 4,300° K, which can ensure color clarity of the surgical light.
