Light; Lighting; Illumination Intensity
Indications
The Insight Instruments Light Source is specifically designed for use in
ophthalmic procedures with the Insight Instruments Mini Light System
MLS (P/N: 11003.000) and Wide Angle Light Pipe WALP (P/N:
11001.000) to provide high quality white light. Only qualified medical
personnel may use this product.
Contraindications
The use of any endoilluminator / ophthalmic illumination system not
expressly approved by Insight Instruments, Inc. may cause permanent
tissue damage or blindness.
For further contraindications, the user must also consult the operating
instructions for the instrument in use with the Light Source in the
procedure.
Insight Instruments1
WARNING: possible explosion hazard. Do not use in the presence of
flammable anesthetics. To ensure patient and operator safety, read
and understand this manual before using the Insight Instruments Light
Source.
Do not remove cover. Electrical shock hazard due to high internal
voltage. There are no user serviceable parts inside except for the lamp
and fuse, which are accessible through the bottom and back cover
panels. Refer all service to Insight Instruments.
Replace fuses as marked. See Fuse Replacement Section, page 7.
The high intensity light at the front of the light source and at the tip of
the Fiber Optic Bundle may give rise to high temperatures and bright
light.
To minimize the risk of injury, avoid direct viewing or contact with
sensitive tissues.
Do not use for neonate transillumination. Erythema may result.
To prevent temporary blinding, always plug the fiber optic bundle into
the Insight Instruments Light Source before turning the power ON.
Total system risk current — including the patient applied instrument —
should not exceed 100 microamps. An isolation transformer is
required if total system risk current exceeds 100 microamps when
accessories are interconnected.
Do not sterilize the Insight Instruments Light Source. Refer to
Cleaning section for cleaning instructions.
Do not switch the Insight Instruments Light Source ON and OFF in
rapid succession. Doing so will dramatically shorten lamp life. Allow
lamp to cool down 10 to 15 seconds between uses.
2UI-20002 6/2002
CAUTION: Only qualified medical personnel should use the Light
Source.
Provide adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Do not cover or
drape this Light Source. Provide a 3 inch (7.62 cm) distance between
the Insight Instruments Light Source and any solid objects.
Grounding reliability is achieved only when connected to hospital-use
or hospital-grade receptacles. Inspect electrical plug and cord
routinely.
Do not use if damage is discovered.
Do not use or store liquids above or on the Insight Instruments Light
Source.
If this light source is used during invasive surgery, the failure of a
component within the system, causing loss of illumination, may
indirectly cause risk to the patient. Therefore, it is recommended to
have alternative means of illumination available.
Since the light source uses a custom lamp, always have a spare lamp
available for replacement. Use caution because lamp is hot.
Allow the lamp to cool before replacing. Use only Insight Instruments
supplied power cord.

Set-up And Operation
After a 15-second warm-up period, the light output will stabilize at its
normal intensity. Plug in the fiber optic bundle to stabilize light output.
CAUTION: Verify that the supply voltage matches the voltage
range indicated on the rear of the Insight Instruments Light
Source.
To prevent temporary blinding, turn power on only after the
fiber optic bundle is plugged in and the intensity control knob is
set to the minimum position.
The fiber optic bundle port is hot when fiber optic bundle is
removed.

On
1. Plug the Insight Instruments Light Source into a hospital-grade
receptacle.
2. Turn the light-intensity control knob to its minimum position. Plug the
fiber optic bundle into the illuminator port and connect the opposite
end to the instrument.
3. Turn the power switch to the on position. The lamp will take 15
seconds to complete its warm-up cycle.
4. Set light intensity to desired level.
5. Turn unit off when not in use.
NOTE: Do not restart lamp immediately after turning off. The lamp
may fail to start. If this occurs, turn the power switch off and wait 15
seconds before restarting the Insight Instruments Light Source.
