WIKO EKG 19V 80W

Q: How should the WIKO EKG 19V 80W halogen lamp be installed for optimal performance?

A: Install the lamp in an appropriate socket with a GZ6.35 or similar bi-pin base, ensuring a secure fit. Proper forced air cooling should be provided, as the lamp generates substantial heat during operation. Always handle carefully, avoiding direct hand contact with the glass to prevent oil residue that may affect performance.

Q: What types of equipment typically use the EKG 19V 80W halogen reflector lamp?

A: This lamp is designed for use in ECG machines, projectors, medical diagnostic devices, and examination lights. Its specifications meet the lighting requirements for precise, high-intensity applications where reliable color rendering and focused illumination are necessary.

Q: When should the lamp be replaced?

A: The lamp has an approximate operational lifespan of 500 hours. It should be replaced when you notice a significant decrease in brightness, flickering, or upon reaching the recommended usage hours to maintain optimal performance and safety.

Q: Where is the WIKO EKG lamp most effectively used?

A: It is best used in indoor environments like hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and settings where ECG machines or medical projectors are employed, owing to its non-rated IP protection and need for controlled conditions.

Q: What is the correct procedure for safely disposing of this halogen lamp?

A: While the lamp contains no mercury, it should still be disposed of in accordance with local regulations for electronic waste or halogen lamps. Protect the lamp from breakage and place it in a designated recycling facility if available.

Q: Can this lamp be dimmed or used with a variable power supply?

A: No, the WIKO EKG 19V 80W lamp is not dimmable and should be operated at its specified voltage and frequency (19V, 50/60 Hz). Using incompatible power sources may lead to premature failure or unsafe operation.

Q: What advantages does the halogen reflector design offer for medical applications?

A: The parabolic aluminized reflector (PAR) shape and borosilicate glass body provide focused, consistent light output, enhancing visibility and accuracy in diagnostic and procedural applications. The warm white light also aids in comfortable, precise observation.
