Faro Alya Photocell Dental Operating Light

Alya LED reflector with photocell

The LED-Technology FARO masterpiece is now even better — state-of-the-art LED technology of the latest generation. Powerful and reliable, Alya dental light is equipped with the patented FARO triaxial movement and optical system, renewed removable and autoclavable handles, and a sophisticated electronic device for better control of the lighting spot. A new electronic board ensures perfect compatibility with video acquisition systems and diagnostic tools that are increasingly common in dental practices.

One lamp for all needs

Beautifully designed ergonomic joints made of solid aluminum alloy and then painted allow Alya, with a simple twist, to be mounted both on the dental unit and on the ceiling. The new pin for insertion in the dental unit column is easily replaceable with pins of different diameter, giving the possibility to install Alya on every brand of dental units.

Patented optical project with reflected light

Thanks to its exclusive optical project with reflected light, and through the 258 small reflecting facets included in each of the two parables, Alya avoids direct vision of the 2 LEDs, creating a 180 × 90 mm spotlight area that is absolutely uniform. Accurate definition of the spotlight removes glare, protecting patients’ eyes.

Scialytic effect

Optimal light on the operating field, reducing to a minimum the shadow produced by instruments between the light and the field. The new FARO dental LED light produces the smallest net shadow on the market.

• Lighting: Spotlight between 3,000 and 50,000 lux
• Progressive illuminance adjustment: Electronic control by joystick or sensor adjusts light from maximum to minimum without interruption, keeping colour temperature constant
• Chromatic performance (CRI): Standard requires CRI > 85; this FARO lamp typically reaches 95. New LED reduces blue component in favour of red and limits potential photochemical risk
• FARO handiness: Perfect balancing with exclusive head rotation on the optical axis for precise beam orientation and reduced risk of accidental dazzling

Electronic controls

• Switching and dimming: micro-joystick on the head
• Also from unit or by foot control
• Electronic lighting adjustment by microprocessor
• Remote control from the unit repeats all joystick functions
• Automatic memorization of used light intensity, also after switching off the unit’s power or after the ‘rinse’ function
• Sound signal at minimum and maximum light intensity
• Exclusive ‘one touch’ regulation (composite position) to reach minimum intensity with a simple ‘click’
• NEW PROXIMITY SENSOR with shielding devices for high-output radio frequencies
