A-dec 500 LED dental light
Touchless, flexible, and crystal clear. The brilliant new 500 LED light. See it to believe it.
Easy on the eyes
Innovative light distribution creates a uniform pattern with a “stadium” effect to minimize shadowing. A feathered edge light pattern reduces eye fatigue.
Exceptional illumination
A high color rendering index (CRI) of 94 mimics sunlight’s clarity and floods the oral cavity with light that reflects colors accurately for soft and hard tissue diagnosis. See image: High CRI (left), Low CRI (right).
The high-quality light pattern on the A-dec 500 LED dental light conforms to the latest ISO9680 standards for brightness, color rendering, and uniformity.
Ecologically and economically smart
Clean and simple
Touchless sensor for on/off activation combines with touchpad control and auto on-off using chair presets to maximize light activation options while simplifying asepsis protocols and minimizing touchpoints. Easier to clean and fewer barriers are needed.
A-dec 500 LED dental light features
Three-axis, 540º horizontal rotation light head adjustment. Provides unlimited barycentric positioning.
Three light intensity settings. Features three intensity settings of 15,000, 25,000, and 30,000 lux.
