1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 System Description
The IsoLux Model 1300 XSB - 300 Watt Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source is a source of continuous
high intensity daylight illumination for demanding surgical vision applications. This is a Class I
device per CE MDD 93/42/EEC, Class I per UL 2601-1, and a Class II device per FDA
regulations. Its mode of operation is continuous and its degree of electrical isolation is type “B”.
The Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source uses a 300-Watt Xenon Lamp that enables the unit to achieve
a high intensity daylight (natural light) output as a result of the lamp’s light collection efficiency.
The IsoLux Model 1300 XSB - 300 Watt Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source is intended to be used
with IsoLux fiber optic cables for surgical headlamps and other lighted instruments that contain
fiber optic bundles, and other fiber optic cables manufactured specifically for use with Xenon
illumination systems. Consult your cable manufacturer or distributor to determine compatibility.
Illumination from this device is to be used for observation of body cavities, hollow organs and
other surgical sites. This device is also intended for use as a light source for surgical headlights
used in various surgical procedures.
This Fiberoptic Light Source incorporates a graduated shutter that allows intensity control from 0
up to 100%. The Fiberoptic Light Source automatically attains full output with a stable color
temperature, natural daylight output, allowing automatic and manual video surgical procedures.
The Xenon lamp light output is precisely focused to ensure maximum light transmission to the
fiber optic cable.
The Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source has a rotary indexing turret on the front panel that allows the
Fiberoptic Light Source to be used with ACMI/CIRCON, Olympus, Storz and Wolf type fiber optic
cables for headlight adaptation.
This Fiberoptic Light Source is also equipped with an elapsed lamp life indicator on the front panel
which shows total hours elapsed. This indicates lamp replacement, avoiding a possible
premature failure of lamp.
The Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source is adaptable to a mobile floorstand with 360° swivel, as shown
in Figure 1. Additionally, an optional Storage Compartment can be adapted to the Fiberoptic Light
Source, which can serve as a drawer for Headlight and cable, loupes and video camera control.
For operation, the Xenon Fiberoptic Light Source requires connection to a 100-120V°~ or 220-
240V°~, 50-60Hz Line. The Hospital Grade power cord provided by IsoLux must be used for
connection to the power mains in the USA. Elsewhere, only an approved power cord
(approved/rated for the country of destination) may be used.
1.2 Receiving / Handling
