Your new Aseptico ALU-40TC Lamp is one of the finest operating lights available to the
dental and medical professions. The ALU-40TC uses an LED light source which
provides brilliant white light, reduced power consumption, and longer operating life.
The universal voltage input Lamp operates from 100VAC to 240VAC, 50 and 60Hz,
and it provides an auxillary DC input that allows 12V and 24V battery operation in the
field. The ALU-40TC features a compact lamp head with adjustable intensity and
spotlight aperature controls, a flexible gooseneck, a heavy-duty table clamp, and a
padded carrying case.
