Efficient use of polymerisation light
In comparison to halogen units, the Elipar FreeLight 2 has a narrow emission spectrum: the polymerisation light can be used more efficiently by the photoinitiator mainly used in dental materials - camphor-quinone - because the emitted wavelength spectrum is concentrated on the initiator’s range of maximal absorption.

The spectral distribution of various polymerisation units in comparison to the absorption spectrum of camphor-quinone. Light wavelengths outside this range cannot be used for polymerisation. (Source: internal data, M. Hartung et al., 2002)
Twice as fast as conventional halogen lamps
With an innovative restoration composite such as Filtek Supreme from 3M ESPE, the Elipar Freelight 2 achieves a polymerisation depth of more than 2.0 mm after just 10 seconds; with a classic restoration composite such as Z100 MP from 3M ESPE this is achieved after 20 seconds; with a conventional halogen lamp 40 seconds are required.

Curing times in comparison: light polymerisation of Filtek Supreme, Filtek Z250 and Z100 MP with the Elipar FreeLight 2 and a halogen lamp (800mW/cm2), Standard depth of polymerisation: 2.0 mm. (Source: 3M ESPE, Instructions for Use)
Each material in combination with the curing light
* Curing time: 30 sec when using the shades 3M B0.5, C4 and UD
** Curing time: 40 sec when using the dentine shades
Thermal management without a fan
Thanks to effective thermal management, the heat which builds up during operation is continually released through the high-quality refined metal housing. Since neither a fan nor ventilation slits are required, the whole surface can be quickly wiped down with disinfectant. |

Universal and flexible application
As a high-performance all-rounder for day-to-day dental surgery procedures, Elipar FreeLight 2 can be used for almost all light polymerisation indications. The curing times of 5s, 10s, 15s and 20s can be set freely. In addition, the practitioner can choose between standard light-curing and soft-start polymerisation.
