1.3 Classification and destination of use of the device

 MO095-GB 02/04/07
Operative Manual Rev.0 Page 7 of 27

Classification according to a particular regulation (CEI EN 60601-2-41 regulation section 2)

Secondary scialytic lamp for surgery (treatment lamp): single lamp in the patient zone that assures an
adequate illumination at the centre to illuminate the patient’s body locally. It is designed to be used in the
operating theatre, for treatments and diagnoses that can be interrupted without danger to the patient in
case of lighting failure.

Classification of the medical devices in terms of the 93/42 EEC directive (attachment IX)
Short-term, active and not invasive medical device destined for local illumination of the patient. In terms
of the above, the device is considered as falling into class I, according to rule 1.

Classification according to a general regulation (CEI EN 60601-1 regulaton article 5)

 On the basis of the type of protection against electrical danger: class I apparatus
 On the basis of the type of protection against direct or indirect contact: type B apparatus
 On the basis of protection against penetration of water: ordinary apparatus
 On the basis of the level of safety of use in the presence of an inflammable anaesthetic mixture with
air or oxygen or hydrogen protoxide: apparatus considered not suitable for use with the elements
describe above.
 On the basis of the conditions of use: apparatus for continuous functioning.

1.4 Safety indications (undesired secondary effects)

 MO095-GB 02/04/07
Operative Manual Rev.0 Page 8 of 27

 The incorrect use and non-observance of the precautionary measures reported here can provoke
serious accidents. You must, therefore, understand the functions of the (PENTALED EV) IX LED
scialytic lamp using these instructions for installation, use and maintenance.

 The lamp is not designed to function in a zone with risk of explosion.

 Do not look directly at the lit lamp and do not insert reflecting objects in the way of the rays. There
is the danger of blinding due to the high potency of illumination.

 The distance between the surface of emission of the light of the lamp and the surface of the patient
should not be less than 80 cm so as to guarantee an efficient illumination.

 The lamp must not be switched on if the closure glass or the filtering system (parabola) is damaged
or broken. Thermal radiation may arrive in the operation area and the tissue of the wound of the
surgical intervention might overheat and dry up. There is indeed the danger of necrosis of the tissue
with prolonged use over time.

 Do not place any objects on the body of the lamp nor hang objects on the arm or the body of the lamp
because, in this way, a safe position cannot be guaranteed and the danger exists that these objects
might fall into the operation area. The weight of heavy objects (the weight of the body of a person)
can damage the apparatus.

 The head of the lamp must not be covered while functioning because this way the thermal exchange
with the environment is prevented and the lamp might overheat.

 Avoid collisions with the mobile+battery arms and the body of the lamp. The lamp might be
damaged with a violent collision or pieces of paint might break off and fall into the operating field of
the patient zone.

 The main switch must be used to remove the tension of the electrical plant of the premises to the
scialytic apparatus for any kind of maintenance.

 Whenever changing the burnt-out bulb immediately, be particularly careful to avoid burning, which
would be caused to the user’s accidental contact with the high temperature parts of the lamp and the
bulb to be changed.

Chapter 4 – Using the apparatus

4.1 Description of the apparatus

Model (PENTALED EV) IX LED
mobile+battery is a cold light
observation lamp.

The light beams, fruit of mathematical

elaborations of the reflecting mirrors,
allow to obtain a shadowless lighting
system and of depth. The reflector
rotates on both axes so as to make it
more flexible. The vertical movement is
of approximately 150 cm. the balance
of the vertical arm is obtained through a
compression spring, which makes the
lamp light while moving and stable in
its position.
Focusing the beams is made possible
using the sterilizable handle until beams
emitted from every single inner optical
group are concentrated.
The lamp can be switched on pushing
the green button on the cover of the
base (ON position: the battery group is
supplied and keeps on recharging the
batteries). To light the lamp it is
possible to act on the key on the
keyboard with round membrane (I/0).


The presence of electro-scalpels, defibrillators and other devices functioning at high
frequence can disturb the scialytic lamp. Their influence will be possibly detectable from
variations in luminous intensity.

4.2 Cleaning, disinfection, sterilisation

4.2.1 Cleaning and disinfecting the lamp

 Before proceeding to the cleaning operations, remove the supply to the lamp from the
main line switch dedicated to the scialytic lamp

All the parts of the lamp can be cleaned with ordinary detergents on all the external surfaces and can be
disinfected with ordinary disinfectants in use in the operating department (no corrosive liquids and
containing chlorine) using a soft wet cloth.


DO NOT pour the contents of detergent and disinfectant containers directly over the
lamp even with vaporisers and never spray liquids inside the head or clean the internal
reflecting parabola.

Only disinfectants authorised by the manufacturer should be used for use on the following materials: rigid
polyurethane (PUR), polyamide +glass fibre (PA6) white Teflon (PTFE), and epoxy-polyester based
paint.

4.2.2 Sterilising the handle

Simple cleaning: the handles that can be sterilised consist of thermo-hardened material, resistant to hear
and shock resistant. They can be cleaned with slightly alkaline cleaners without active chlorine. Remove
the detergent by rinsing with abundant water.
Alternatively the handles can be mechanically cleaned through thermal disinfection up to a temperature of
93°C for 10 minutes.
Disinfection: we advise alcohol or aldehyde based products for disinfecting the handles
Sterilisation: the handles can be sterilised with steam.
For sterilising, keep to the instructions contained in the following steam cycle sterilisation table

contact with infective agents -
BSE)
134 °C
(if the handle has not come into
134 °C 2 4 min 30 min
contact with infective agents -
BSE)

When the steriliser is loaded, check that the open part of the handle is turned downwards. The handles
must be positioned freely, avoid covering them with other accessories.
The handle should be sterilised whenever it is necessary and in always following any internal protocols or
national or local directives.


The handles that can be sterilised are subject to natural wear. Normally they last about
200 cleaning cycles. Damaged handles can no longer be used. The user must take into
account the demands of the competent national body on hygiene and disinfection.

The Rimsa Company does not advise hot air sterilisation. If, however, it becomes necessary, the handle
must be sterilised, unpacked, at 134°C for 3 minutes.
Handle disposal:
sterilise the now worn-out handle to avoid contamination and eliminate it according to the normal
procedures for non biologically infected materials.

4.3 Changing fuses

 Before proceeding to the operations of changing fuses, remove the supply to the electric
panel from the main line switch dedicated to the scialytic lamp

The fuses are placed on the cover of the slab. Unscrew the fuse and replace the out-of-order fuse with one
new with identical characteristics, respecting the face on the label.

Chapter 5 – Maintenance

Ordinary maintenance of the apparatus consists of:

 changing the fuses in case of breakage (Paragraph 4.3)

 calibrating the oscillating arm (Paragraph 5.1)

5.1 Calibrating the oscillating and bent arm

 MO095-GB 02/04/07
Operative Manual Rev.0 Page 21 of 27

The lamp is sold already balanced and no further calibration is

1 necessary. If over time the oscillating arm with spring balance becomes
rigid or loose it is possible to intervene mechanically by adjusting the
compression of the internal spring.
Bring the oscillating arm to the highest position allowed and remove the
aluminium cover (1).

Insert a pin of 5mm maximum and rotate it anti-clockwise or clockwise

to increase or diminish the strength of the spring.
At the end of adjustment replace the cover in the original position.
After adjustment the balancing should be fluid.

For the regulation of the clutches on the rotation of

the arms it is necessary to act on the indicated M4x5
screws as shown in the drawing.

5.2 Battery maintenance

The battery group does not need any specific maintenance because all the batteries used are lead-sealed
and are based upon the modern technology of oxygen recombination.
This makes the lamp completely safe thanks to the loss of the electrolyte. The lamp can be used in any
position and does not need any further maintenance.
Charge/discharge cycles depend on the depth of discharge; however it is possible to calculate roughly
1000 charge/discharge cycles at 20-30% of discharge depth. The average lamp life of the battery group is
usually 4 years in stand-by.
If the storage takes place in a dry place and not in extreme conditions the battery maintains its charge for
approximately one year.
If you do not know the status of the battery and want to check its general conditions, it is necessary to
charge it at least 12 hours and to run it down at 50% of the highest luminous intensity, verifying that it
lasts at least 4 hours.

5.3 Extraordinary maintenance

 MO095-GB 02/04/07
Operative Manual Rev.0 Page 22 of 27

For extraordinary maintenance of the lamp the following points need checking:
 luminous intensity reduced by more than 30%: check that an opaque mist has not formed on the
internal surface of the glass protection with the evaporation of detergents penetrated inside the
head and evaporated due to the heat of the bulb.
 detachment of parts of the paint from the apparatus due to accidental collision with other objects:
these fragments can fall onto the patient zone during the use of the device.
For the cases mentioned above, contact the Manufacturer or the assistance centre nearest the Client
authorised by the Manufacturer.
