Intended use of the Dräger disposable handle
The Dräger disposable handle provides a sterile

cover for the associated inner handle of Polaris
systems. The Dräger disposable handle is
intended solely for single use.
Intended use of the MedView camera
The MedView camera is intended for recording the

operating field for the purpose of patient
documentation, teaching, and training.
In the Polaris 600 light system, the MedView
camera is used together with a medical display as
a video system. The MedView camera must only
be used in conjunction with the Polaris 600 light.
The recordings must only be used for non-
diagnostic purposes.

Application
Environments of use
Polaris 600 lights are intended for use in rooms

used for medical purposes, especially operating
rooms and treatment rooms.

under laminar flow ceilings.
OR light mode
The Polaris 600 light combines the illumination

from 92 white LED bulbs to create a homogeneous
light column with deep cavity illumination and
minimal shadowing. The adjustable color
temperature, good color reproduction, and
adjustable illuminance ensure optimum working
conditions for demanding procedures within the
operating field and the examination field. The
illuminance can be adjusted in the OR light mode.
Ambient light mode (Endo light)
In the ambient light mode, the surroundings can be

illuminated for minimally invasive procedures. In
this light mode, the illuminance is significantly
lower than in the OR light mode. The illuminance
cannot be adjusted in the ambient light mode.

NOTE
A The sterilizable handle E will lose its functionality

if disposable handles and the associated handle
adapter for disposable handles from
manufacturers other than Dräger are used. It will
no longer be possible to set the illuminance or
the light field diameter in the operating section.
The operating section of the handle is touch-

sensitive, i.e., it is sufficient to lay a finger on the
surface. It is not necessary to exert any pressure.
B The better the contact between finger and surface,
the easier it is to adjust the light.
The operating section of the handle can be
operated when surgical gloves are worn.
 A wiping motion with one finger across the
surface of the operating section at any location
will adjust the illuminance, see "Setting
illuminance on the sterilizable handle E" on
page 43.
 Double-tapping with one finger on the surface
of the operating section at any location will

Color assignment of the lights to the wall-mounted control panel
The individual light control panels on the wall-

Operation
Maximum total irradiance for

combinations of lights
WARNING
the heat input to the wound site may be
unacceptably high. This can lead to drying
out of the wound site.
If necessary, the total irradiance must be
adjusted by reducing the illuminance of
individual lights, see "Setting the
illuminance" on page 42.
When using 2 or more lights to illuminate the

operating field, the permissible standard total
irradiance limit may be exceeded if the light fields
from several lights overlap. This can lead to
increased drying out of the wound site. The
thermal radiation from each light increases linearly
with increasing illuminance. A single light cannot
exceed the permissible total irradiance limit, but it
is possible when a combination of lights is used. To
avoid increased thermal radiation, observe the
following recommendations:
– Set the lights to the minimum illuminance
required for appropriate illumination of the
operating field. If a high level of illuminance is
temporarily required, it should be reduced
again as quickly as possible.
– If the maximum level of illuminance from one
light is required, the illuminance from the other
lights must be reduced. The light fields from the
individual lights should not overlap if possible.

Operation
The following table lists examples of illumination

settings for different combinations of lights. With

Maintenance
Acceptance and handover
Polaris 600 light

Upon conclusion of the installation or maintenance
work, the system must be tested and accepted by
specialized service personnel.
Commissioning DrägerService is recommended.
These tests determine
– whether the safety requirements necessary to
protect the patient and personnel have been
met, and
– whether the entire functional range of the
systems is met.
The inspection results must be documented in
writing.
After acceptance, the operational system is
handed over to its owner along with the associated
documentation. A written record of the handover is
