For more than 45 years, WEINMANN Emergency has been developing equipment for emergency medicine – from ventilators and defibrillators to emergency cases and backpacks and equipment for oxygen supply. To ensure smooth and reliable emergency medical care, all equipment must be quick, easy and intuitive to use, as well as withstand outdoor use with a compact and robust design. The emergency and transport ventilator MEDUMAT Transport uses light guides made by MENTOR. With a battery life of 8 hours, the ventilator for infants, children and adults also enables patient ventilation independent of a power source. A hygiene filter filters viruses and bacteria from the ambient air and a Bluetooth module sends all data to an appropriate information system.
The illuminated status indicators on the unit’s display provide rescuers with information at a glance about the current power supply to the unit and whether the ventilator’s integrated alarm sound is on or off.

As the world’s leading supplier of modern PLC control systems Siemens relies on lighting technology by MENTOR: Miniaturized square light guides of type 1296 are used for the motor starter Sirius ET200. The light guide’s adjustment in length, as in this example, may be realized by MENTOR with no or only low tool costs.

The fault and danger detectors of the Swabian company are equipped with light guides by MENTOR. The display fields are homogeneously illuminated by a customized version of the M-Cut light guide system, while the corresponding key caps of the 2271 series illuminate the function keys ideally. An exchange of the inscription inserts between light guide and foil is up to the customer and can be modified easily and cost-effectively.
