Turbines
The main feature of Anthos turbines is that they are extremely quiet. The average noise level is just 57dB(A), way below typical levels produced by conventional turbines.
Made using low-attrition and minimum-inertia ceramic ball bearings, Anthos Silent Power turbines provide power, low vibration and a maximised working life. Carefully selected materials, perfect constructive geometries and strict quality control processes all ensure that Anthos turbines easily withstand the dynamic stresses of daily dentistry and the thermal/chemical aggression of modern autoclaves.
The most efficient cooling is ensured by irrigation, which varies from model to model. There are from 2 to 4 spray irrigators. Whatever the treatment, multiple irrigation aids optimal visibility of the operating area. There are two separate nozzles, one for water and one for air at each irrigation point, ensuring that fluids are not mixed inside the turbine and so preventing cross-contamination of circuits. Moreover, the dual nozzles also ensure constant, stable misting independently of the different air and liquid pressures and provide a very dry air chip-blower.
LED lighting
Instead of the traditional halogen bulbs there is now a miniaturised circuit with LED lighting. Longer lifespan and a higher quality white light.
Hygiene and asepsis
The materials and components used on Anthos Silent Power turbines allow them to be placed in an instrument washer or autoclave.
Bur change at the touch of a key
Bur changeover is fast and easy thanks to the key-type release featured on the head of all Anthos Silent Power models.
Rapid coupling
Available for GOLD, GOLD MINIATURE and SILVER 4L, the Anthos rapid coupling enables the turbines to rotate through a full 360°. The SILVER 4LK turbine is specially adapted to the KaVo MULTIflex® rapid coupling,.
