NTDS26 NTP Digital Clock 5,8 cm
The NTDS26 is a 6-digit NTP display with 5.8 cm tall LED digits, available in red, green, blue, amber.
Identical size to the NTDS24 but in a 6-digit configuration (HH:MM:SS) rather than 4-digit. The choice between NTDS24 and NTDS26 depends on whether you only want to show hours and minutes (4-digit) or include seconds (6-digit). For operating theatres, sports halls or medium-sized meeting rooms where the seconds indication is useful.

Frequently asked questions
When should I choose the NTDS26 over the NTDS24?
For visibility of seconds (HH:MM:SS) choose the NTDS26 with 6 digits. The NTDS24 shows 4 digits (HH:MM), which is sufficient for general time display where seconds are not required. Operating theatres, sports halls and control rooms typically choose the NTDS26.
What is the viewing distance of the NTDS26?
With 5.8 cm digits, typically readable up to ~15-20 metres under normal indoor lighting. For larger spaces choose the NTDS46 (10.2 cm) or NTDS86 (18 cm).
Which colour is most visible in an operating theatre?
Red is the most commonly used colour in medical contexts, due to familiarity and the fact that it does not disturb night-vision adaptation. Amber is an alternative for atmospheric lighting. For specific advice on your OT environment, contact Daylight bv.
