Security, safety and flexibility - the three basics of hospital power

 

Uninterruptible Power Supplies Limited has many years' experience in providing power protection solutions for medical applications.

Total lifetime security

A secure power supply is one that delivers continuous uninterrupted power, 365/24, free of any harmful effects that could damage sensitive equipment. PowerWAVE's advanced features combine to fulfil this requirement through:-

  • UPSs with redundant parallel architecture which ensures that a module failure does not interrupt power to the load.
  • Extended battery autonomies ensure continued uninterrupted power even during mains power loss events of several minutes or, in some cases, hours
  • Standby generators can also be designed in to the power solution for extended mains independence
  • UPSs with comprehensive protection from power spikes, voltage and frequency variations, and harmonics is also provided
  • Isolated power supply design isolates both live and neutral lines from earth

Uninterruptible Power Supplies Limited's first rate professional maintenance plans ensure this security remains undiminished after months or years of continuous operation. Our packages, designed for your particular installation, include regular inspection and maintenance visits and emergency support extending to a 4 hour response time, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Remote monitoring and management of your power system from an Uninterruptible Power Supplies Limited service centre is also an option.

Safety in an acute clinical environment

During certain clinical procedures, currents as low as 10ľA are considered to carry a risk of disturbing the patient's normal heart muscle rhythm, which may prove fatal. Uninterruptible Power Supplies IPSs (isolated power supplies) isolate the earth from both lines. A dead short to earth or leakage current will not trip the circuit breaker, so ensuring continuity of supply to critical equipment. However, patients or staff accidentally touching a line will not experience any harmful leakage current, while load and leakage current are monitored by local and remote alarms.

Flexibility for rapid change

  • PowerWAVE's small footprint and light weight allow easy positioning into existing hospital plant rooms
  • Expansion to meet future demand is also easy, as modules can be simply added to existing cabinets, often online with no interruption to power. And further expansion is achieved by adding further cabinets. Paralleling features allow simple PowerWAVE expansion to satisfy growing demand
  • Support contracts are provided which are tuned precisely to each installation, eliminating unnecessary service costs
     

The most reliable and best value UPS for hospitals

PowerWAVE UPS solutions represent an unbeatable mix of capital cost, cost of ownership and backup support advantages. The small and light transformerless technology offers the highest efficiency in any on-line UPS. The result is reduced installation, operating and air conditioning costs. PowerWAVE's unique input stage design features a near-unity power factor which further reduces operating costs. Its modular design allows close matching to the critical load, eliminating useless capacity and wasted space. Flexibility in maintenance planning similarly ensures that no money is wasted on inappropriate maintenance or support.
