Dear Customer
Optimum polymerization is an important
requirement for all light cured materials in
order to consistently produce high quality
restorations. The polymerization light
selected also plays a decisive role in this
respect. Therefore, we would like to thank
you for having purchased bluephase
®
20i.
bluephase 20i is a high-quality medical device
which has been designed according to the
latest standard of science and technology in
compliance with the relevant industry stan-
dards.
These Operating Instructions will help you to
safely start up the device, make full use of its
capabilities and ensure a long service life.
Should you have any further questions,
please do not hesitate to contact us
(see addresses on the back cover).

1) Applies to a maximum layer thickness of 2 mm and provided that the Instructions for Use of the respective material do not state any other recommendation (might be the case, e.g. with dentin shades)
2) Applies to a maximum layer thickness of 4 mm and provided that the Instructions for Use of the respective material do not state any other recommendation (might be the case, e.g. with dentin shades)
3) Applies to a maximum layer thickness of 3 mm 4) Applies to light-curing (use of the base past only) 5) Applies to dual-curing
HIGH POWER Program
Consistently high light intensity for
the polymerization of restorative and
cementation materials for direct and
indirect restorations.
TURBO Program
Consistently high light intensity for
the polymerization of restorative and
cementation materials for direct and
indirect restorations.
SOFT START Program
Step-by-step increase of the light
intensity with reduced shrinkage
stress and reduced heat development
for the polymerization of restorative
materials.
LOW POWER Program
Reduced light intensity with reduced
heat development for the polymeriza-
tion of adhesives, liners, and restora-
tive materials in areas near the pulp
when restoring Class V cavities.
