The Olympus CLV-180 is a 300-watt xenon light source for EVIS EXERA II endoscopy, offering HDTV-grade illumination, Narrow Band Imaging filters, automatic brightness control, and a backup halogen lamp so procedures continue without interruption.
The CLV-180 is Olympus's xenon light source for the EVIS EXERA II endoscopy platform. A 300-watt lamp supplies the illumination needed for HDTV imaging, and built-in Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) filters let clinicians switch to enhanced mucosal and vascular visualization for gastrointestinal examinations.
Light output comes from a 300 W xenon short-arc lamp (ozone-free) with an average life of about 500 hours under continuous use; intermittent use can shorten this slightly. Ignition runs through a switching regulator, and brightness is controlled by a light-path diaphragm with forced-air cooling. A color-conversion filter is available for special applications. If the main lamp fails, a 12 V, 35 W halogen emergency lamp takes over, with an average life of roughly 500 hours.
