Luxo's New KFM-HO Magnifiers Offer Double the Light in a Sleeker Design


New Product: KFM-HO Magnifier Series

Manufacturer: Luxo

Product Applications: Industrial, Manufacturing, Health and Beauty Spas, Cosmetology, Electrology, Low Vision

Product Description: The KFM-HO series of magnifiers joins Luxo's bestselling KFM line. The Luxo KFM has been the worldwide leader in round-lensed magnifiers since 1954. KFM-HO features a 22W T5-C fluorescent light source, 3500 lux at focal distance, and 2.5X more light output than other round-lensed magnifiers. Such powerful illumination is supported by a high-frequency electronic ballast which minimizes heat emission and provides flicker-free operation.

KFM-HO are the industry standard for round-lensed illuminated magnifiers. With die-cast aluminum housing, they are ideally suited for heavy-duty applications especially those that require the optimal combination of illumination and magnification. Models feature a five-inch diameter optical glass lens, either 3-diopter (1.75X), 5 diopter (2.25X) or 10 diopter (3.50X).

Secondary add-on lenses in 4-, 8- or 10- diopter magnifications are also available. The 4- and 8-diopter lenses slide into position underneath the cover, via a sturdy lens holder, while the 10-diopter accessory lens is attached to the top of the magnifier via a swing-away lens mount. The triple-jointed counter-balanced, concealed spring-arm may be ordered in 30- or 45-inch lengths, in clamp-on or weighted base.

Luxo's patented internal spring arms allow for infinite positioning. An adjustable neck supports the head which can move vertically and horizontally to provide total flexibility. Once adjusted, perfect balance is maintained by tempered steel springs.

Construction & Finishes: KFM-HO lenses are mounted in an aluminum housing that is non-corrosive and durable. The inside is finished in white to optimize and evenly distribute light. KFM-HO is finished in light grey, black and white. Models come standard with a minimum clearance bracket. Weighted base and rolling floor stand options also available. KFM-HO is UL/CUL listed and a five-year warranty comes standard with each magnifier.
