X-Cite Vitae FOI Configurable Fiber Optic Illumination System
The X-Cite Vitae™ FOI is a compact, configurable, white-light, LED light source for OEM medical applications such as endoscopy, surgical microscopy and headlamp systems. With high lumen and high CRI options, as well as a variety of coupling and control possibilities, the X-Cite Vitae FOI is a flexible illumination platform for simple integration.
This LED illumination system features pre-designed, configurable components that can quickly and easily be adapted to specific customer requirements minimizing design investment. As a result, product design for the most critical medical lighting requirements can be significantly reduced, allowing for shorter time-to-market.
Features and Benefits:
LED Technology: Reduced heat, longer lifetime, higher efficiency
High flux output (2000 lumens): Equivalent to current Xenon performance
Up to 92 CRI option: Broader spectral output
Standardized Fiber Interface: Integrated turret for industry standard fiber cables, custom coupling options available.
Small footprint and height: Allows for camera and light source integration
Fan orientation: Flexible heat exchange location (left, right or rear)
Optimized thermal management: Maximum LED output, lifetime, stability and reliability
Coupling optics: Maximum light coupling and uniformity
Ferrule sensing: Safely turns off light when fiber is not present
Flexible control electronics without firmware: Direct current control or PWM
Thermal cutoff sensor: Safety assurance via power cutoff when temperature exceeds predetermined limit
Configurable sheet metal mounting: Easily adapts to any customer housing
Custom variations: Adaptable platform for quick and cost effective changes - available upon request
