Integrated Optical Solutions A Lamp Compartments A Ambient C Front Exam C B Reading D Rear Exam D B ERAcare utilizes four separate optical compartments to provide three key illumination requirements for the patient room Exam, Reading and Ambient. These varied functions are integrated into a compact cross-section and can be activated without the need to flip, rotate or mechanically move any part of the luminaire. The needs of the patient and healthcare staff are a flip of the switch away. Function Recommended Levels 1 ERAcare Levels Exam Illumination of the patient bed for examination 50-100 Avg.

The soft curved form eliminates sharp corners, simplifies cleaning and reduces visual size. 5-1/2 (139.7mm) 8-15/16 (227.3mm) No flat surfaces to sit items on. The die cast end caps and extruded aluminum housing provides durability. 1 Internal linear prisms help maintain a smooth exterior surface that is easy to wipe down. 2 ERAcare s dual exam optical compartments promote better uniformity across the entire patient bed surface. 3 Multiple switching options are available to meet the needs of the installation. 4 The removable socket covers conceal the lamp socket and promote a uniform appearance of the illuminated lens. 5 The Bed Shut-off Switch option minimizes the potential for luminaire damage from motorized patient beds by disconnecting power to the bed when ERAcare is moved. As an option, a set of integrated LED chart/night lights are located at either end of the luminaire. Healthcare staff can conveniently operate these low level lights from both sides of the patient bed. ERAcare meets the most stringent illumination recommendations for exam and reading functions.
