Selective coatings of new dual purpose unit ( 1 ) reflect full usable light back to film gate, (2) pass heat through to the back of the lamphouse for easy dissipation. Film remains cool enough to permit increased carbon arc amperage within rated lamp capacity. You can get more light on the screen . . . better picture . . . less damage to film. Here's the finest reflector money can buy, with today's most efficient heatdissipator built right into it. You get more light, less heat, better operating conditions, and maintenance . . . at less than the cost of standard renector-and-heat-filter combinations. Costs less to buy, less to maintain ...with NEW WRITE FOR DATA BROCHURE E-35 Get the facts on cooler, troublefree, economical operation.
