LUMEN 4336 W
LUMEN 4336W as part of a new generation of detectors designed for increased durability and special ease of use and service.Varex Imaging’s Engineering Team built upon our experience with the previous 4336 radiographic detector which has a B10 value of 6.9 years. This means that 90% of our previous generation 4336 detectors were in the field for almost 7 years before any service was required, and we expect that the B10 value of LUMEN series should improve on the value of the predecessor 4336.
Main Features
Robustness
The LUMEN 4336W has been designed with reliability in mind. By simplifying the construction of the internal components,Varex has minimized potential points of failure while also improving the design of the housing to provide protection from external shocks.
Waterproof
The LUMEN 4336W has increased resistance to water ingress with an industry leading rating of IP68. This means that the LUMEN 4336W will be ready for real world use, from the physical challenges of the emergency department to the frequent disinfection cycles now demanded by changing standards of care.
Direct repair
Simple field replacements for the most common mechanical failures.
Reliable
At Varex, our ambition is to design a detector which never leaves the healthcare facility for service. By eliminating the need for returns for commonly worn-out parts, together with the LUMEN series’ improved design & robustness, we believe that the LUMEN series has the potential to remain in the field for their full useful life without ever needing a service return.
Always ΟΝ
Even with the possibility of more than 1,000 images on a single charge - there are still times when a battery must be swapped. To simplify this process, the LUMEN detector will stay powered for a few minutes once the battery is removed. In this hot-swappable state, one cannot take images - but any WiFi connection is maintained - allowing the operator to take images again with no delay once a fresh battery has been inserted.
Image Quality
All the features in the Varex Imaging LUMEN 4336W detector are coupled with the excellent image quality that Varex has built our reputation on. Our engineering expertise in solving high sensitivity and low noise imaging challenges means that the mechanical improvements described here are always matched with best experience we can provide – making the invisible, visible.
