SIMEON mobile surgical light stands with removable battery back-up

What the mobile range covers

With the Sim.LED mobile lights, the whole SIMEON portfolio can be used on a mobile stand: the Sim.LED examination lights, the compact Sim.LED 4500, and the HighLine and BusinessLine surgical lights. This means you can pick the light for the task and the stand follows, instead of having to accept a special mobile model with fewer features.

The stand itself carries the Anti.BAC antibacterial coating, the same finish as the lights. That matters because the stand base and column are touched and bumped far more often than a ceiling arm.

Battery back-up with removable batteries

The stands are available with or without a battery back-up system using removable batteries, with a single or double battery. This keeps the light running without interruption during a power failure or where the mains supply is unstable. Because the batteries are removable, a spare can be charged while the other one works.

The data we hold does not state battery run time, so request run time at full brightness, charging time, battery life and the service plan in writing. For more on the topic see battery-powered mobile surgical lights.

• Single battery: basic back-up for short interruptions.
• Double battery: longer back-up or hot-swap operation.
• No battery: for rooms with a reliable supply or a central emergency system.

Where mobile lights make sense

Mobile lights suit day-surgery rooms without ceiling support, procedure rooms in older buildings, emergency rooms, ICU bays and field or temporary facilities. They are also useful as a second light in a theatre or as a spare when a ceiling light is being serviced.

They are not a full replacement for a ceiling system in a busy main theatre. A stand takes floor space, the cable and base can interfere with staff and equipment, and airflow patterns in a laminar room are best served by ceiling-mounted heads. The principle is discussed in ceiling-mounted surgical lights.

Choosing the light for the stand

The Sim.LED 4500 suits minor procedures in ICU and emergency settings, and the Sim.LED 350 suits examination rooms. For longer surgical cases the BusinessLine and HighLine heads can also be mounted on a stand. Match the illuminance to the work, as explained in how to read surgical light specifications.

Stability is the other consideration. A heavier head on a tall column needs a wide base, and the user should be able to park the stand with brakes locked. Ask the manufacturer for the weight and the footprint and test it on your floor.

Camera option and accessories

Thanks to optional wireless technology, a camera can be used with the mobile lights without cables running across the floor. This is useful for teaching or documenting minor procedures. Ask for the exact camera models compatible with each light and for the video outputs you need.

Plan where the stand will be parked, where the power outlet is and how the cable is protected. A stand that is difficult to store will be left in the wrong place.
