The Luxtec MLX 300W Xenon light source system has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to be marketed in the US.
The Luxtec MLX 300W Xenon light source, along with a robust group of companion light sources, light guides and recording options, will be marketed globally through the Integra surgical sales network, the company said.
According to the company, the Luxtec MLX light source provides an unprecedented 1,000 hour lamp warranty, an increase of over 50% from current technology. The Luxtec MLX light system also provides new Smart Fan Technology, which reportedly enhances system cooling and improves unit performance.
Bob Perrett, president of the Integra Medical Instrument Group, said: The MLX light source takes the Luxtec surgical lighting products to new levels of brightness, control and operational cost savings, and will become the focus and centerpiece of Integra surgical illumination sales. The quality and color correctness of this light is remarkable and differentiated from even higher powered units.
