The Coltene Spec 3 LED Curing Light is an advanced dental equipment designed to expedite the polymerization process of light-cured materials used in dental procedures. Crafted from industrial-grade aluminum, this device is built for durability and efficient heat dissipation, ensuring optimal performance. Dental professionals can rely on this curing light to significantly reduce polymerization time across a range of light-cured materials, resulting in excellent treatment outcomes.
This versatile device offers multiple curing modes, including 3K Mode, Standard Mode, and Ortho Mode, granting dental practitioners maximum functionality and flexibility in their procedures. The product is specifically indicated for both intra- and extra-oral polymerization of light-cured dental materials employing Camphorquinone (CQ) photoinitiators, with a wavelength output spanning 430 nm to 490 nm.
To maintain the device's integrity, users must adhere to certain obligations, including training and compliance with relevant state or local regulations. The Spec 3 LED Curing Light also follows European directive 2002/96/EC, making it eco-friendly by facilitating the return and recycling of used electrical and electronic appliances.
For optimal operation, the device must be used in a dry environment, and precautions should be taken to prevent moisture damage. The provided power adapter and charger base operate within a voltage range of 100-240V, 50-60Hz, ensuring compatibility in various settings.
The Coltene Spec 3 LED Curing Light boasts user-friendly controls, with options for power adjustment, mode selection, and polymerization time settings. It also includes an auto-sleep feature to conserve power when not in use. Furthermore, sterilization can be easily achieved using FDA-cleared methods.

Direction To Use:
Installation procedure :
- Gently insert the light guide into the opening on the handpiece. When light guide is fully inserted, approximately 1mm of the metal ring will be exposed.
- Place the barrier sleeve over the curing light. Put the eye shield over the end of the light guide drawing the barrier sleeve taut.
- Plug the AC power cord into the receptacle in the power adapter.
- Connect the S.P.E.C. 3® LED Charger Base to the power adapter. Insert the plug on the power adapter completely into the wall electrical outlet.
- Keep the handpiece on the charger base when not in use.
Powering ON and OFF :
-
The battery charge level display: Three green lights indicate a fully charged LED curing light. One or two green lights indicate the curing light is not fully charged. The unit beeps one time after displaying the battery charge level indicating the LED is ready to use.
-
Power ON: Press the Shot switch or the Mode switch to activate the S.P.E.C 3® Curing Light.
-
Power OFF: S.P.E.C. 3® LED Curing Light turns off automatically after 5 minutes if no operation is detected (Sleep mode).
- If the curing light is in ”Sleep” mode, pressing any switch will “awaken” the light to the curing mode last used.
Basic Controls :
-
Mode switch: Press the Mode switch quickly to select various time
settings. Press and hold the Mode Switch for 3 seconds to switch between curing modes. Two beeps are emitted.
-
Shot switch: Press the Shot switch to start the selected curing program. Press the Shot switch during operation to stop the program in progress.
Mode selection :
-
3K Mode / Ortho Mode: When selected, the LED display turns to ORANGE color. The output will be 3000 mW/cm².
-
Standard Mode: When selected, the LED display turns to GREEN color. The output will be 1600 mW/cm². Press and hold the Mode switch for 3 seconds to change curing mode (GREEN and ORANGE light changes alternately).
