The apparatus, as modified by Reyn, consists in a standwith a transverse arm, holding the lamp and the concen-tration apparatus. The lamp itself is self-regulating, havinga force of 55 volts and 20 amperes, arranged to be run ona direct continuous current of 100 volts. It is movableforward and backward on a sliding bar. It can be m^adeto rotate about its vertical axis, on which it may be alsofastened in a vise. The concentration apparatus is arrangedupon the same principle as that of the larger Finsen is composed of two disks of rock-crystal, the space betweenwhich is filled with distilled water. The arc light can be placed very near the concentratormthout danger of breaking the quartz lens nearest the order to keep the distilled water cold there is a jacket 480 ACTINOTHERAPY Fig. Finsen-Reyn lamp.
