G100-3
Overview
The G100/3 has been specifically designed for use with the Apollo Gemlite luminaire, in order to meet the three lighting level requirements necessary for intensive care overbed illumination. These being 'general' lighting appropriate for day to day observation and care without discomfort to patients; 'night' lighting appropriate for observation requirements with minimum disturbance to sleeping patients; and high intensity 'examination' lighting levels for close observation and treatment. Suitable for flush or surface mounting installation as required.
Operation
- To achieve general lighting as described above, press switch 'A' (see diagram)
- To achieve night lighting set required dimmed level via the rotary controller on switch 'A'
- To achieve high intensity examination lighting turn on switch 'B' (see diagram). Switch 'B' overrides switch 'A' and the rotary controller to give full light output, regardless of the previous setting of the luminaire.
In order to avoid accidental loss of light during critical situations, once activated, the high intensity examination level will be maintained until both switches 'A' and 'B' are turned off. This will reset the luminaire ready for normal operation.
