The Aurora Overbed Light Fixture is a high quality patient room light that provides three-way lighting with convenience and elegance. It is especially designed for both acute care and general patient rooms. The Aurora light provides examination lighting by rotating the upper portion of the fixture over to aim all four lamps on the patient. Lights in these areas may be inadvertently damaged or even torn off the wall by IV holders, traction bars or other equipment attached to a rising bed. To prevent damage to the light, the bed is plugged into a receptacle that is powered via a microswitch in the light. If pressure is exerted under the light, the switch opens, the receptacle is de-energized and the bed motor is stopped.
