Visionary, versatile surgical lighting
Harmony® vLED surgical lighting system
Make the
switch to LED
technology
LED lighting has become the leading
choice for today’s surgical suite teams.
And with good reason: LED lamps emit
bright light without radiating heat.
Ever
pragmatic,
STERIS
asked
professionals in the field what they
were really looking for in an LED surgical
lighting system.
STERIS
took
their
comments
into
account and engineered a completely
new range of lighting systems that are
aesthetic and easy to adjust, and deliver
high-intensity, heat-free light.
And the benefits? A cooler, more
comfortable surgical environment that
is free of shadows, as well as excellent
colour rendering and exceptional deepcavity illumination.
Visualisation for
all applications
Unparalleled shadow
reduction
From endoscopy and ENT, to open heart
The light directed at surgical incisions must be perfect. The 60 LEDs on
surgery and orthopaedics, the Harmony®
each Harmony® vLED lighthead are arranged to ensure the optimum
vLED system is the ideal solution:
balance between shadow reduction and cavity illumination. Each lens
· Maximum light intensity
produces a beam of light that is precisely aimed and overlapped to
· Cool, white light
· Excellent colour rendition
achieve a tight, round pattern.
As a result, the light spot stays uniform and completely free of shadows
no matter how many lenses are blocked by obstructions.
· Deep cavity illumination
· Shadow reduction
· Energy efficiency
Each LED lens creates the pattern
- block one or forty and the
surgical spot remains clear and
unobstructed.
Ultra bright, yet cool, white light
The advances in LED technology are perfectly suited to the requirements of surgical suites. Because LED lamps
do not emit infrared rays, virtually no heat is radiated towards the surgical field. As a result, the risk of drying out
exposed tissue is minimised and the conditions for the patient and surgical team are cooler and more comfortable.
A true win-win all around.
Vivid colour
accuracy
Not only is the light emitted by the Harmony® vLED
system cool, it is also particularly bright. Its LEDs
are specifically engineered to emit white light and
thus avoid the need for filters to counteract the
negative effects characteristic of colour LEDs. The
Harmony® vLED system provides excellent natural
colour rendition that remains stable over time, thus
allowing surgeons to interpret tissue and vessel
appearance with the utmost accuracy. Moreover,
we have maximised its R9 value, a measurement of
critical importance as it determines the eye’s ability to
distinguish subtle shades of red.
Visionary controls right at your fingertips
The Harmony® vLED system features three sources of control. The Touch Panel controls the light intensity and the
camera. The optional ACT (Automation Control Technology) interface allows the lighthead to be controlled via your
integration system. Lastly, the handle features a built-in one-touch control system for repositioning the lighthead and
adjusting its illumination intensity (7 different levels) and the spot size.
Modular to suit your
needs
We know that not all operating theatres are alike. That is why
we designed the Harmony® vLED system with a wide variety of
configurations and choices to perfectly suit all operating theatre
needs and budgets.
Proven-quality suspension:
• Optimum manoeuvrability in all situations
Harmony® vLED
single lighthead system
- Excellent low lateral positioning
- High “parked” position between cases
• Single spring arm designed for low ceilings
• Highly manoeuvrable dual spring arm for standard ceiling
heights
Different lightheads for different needs:
• Fixed spot size lighthead for surgical suites, ICUs, and cath
labs
Harmony® vLED single
lighthead with single flatpanel monitor
• Adjustable spot size lighthead for all procedures, from general
Future ready
surgery to complex orthopaedic cases
• Camera-ready adjustable spot size lighthead
Today’s surgeons expect much more than great optics and suspensions. They require systems that can integrate
in-light cameras and flat-panel monitors as well as accommodate future technologies. Our flat-panel monitor arms
feature removable panels that make wiring easy. The high degree of compatibility offered by the Harmony® vLED system
makes adding existing equipment or upgrading to better equipment easy regardless of the endoscopy camera you
choose.

Environmentally
friendly
The Harmony® vLED surgical lighting
systems are easy on the planet. How?
They contain no mercury, lead, cadmium,
CFCs, POPs, VOCs, or any other toxic
substances.
Each LED lamp is rated for 30,000 hours
of service life, which means no lamps to
throw away or recycle.
What’s more, they are more energy
efficient than conventional lamps and
they reduce building operating costs
because they do not generate any heat
that would have to be removed by an air
conditioning system.
