A reliable and safe power supply saves lives in the medical sector
Power problems are always unwelcome, but especially in the medical sector. A small UPS for incubator respirators is literally a matter of life and death. And radiation equipment for treating cancer patients must also operate without a hitch. The medical imaging department has meanwhile embraced digitalization: everything is electronically stored and the images can be accessed from anywhere. Laboratories too must have a reliable power supply. Because the reacting agents for blood analysis can cost up to thousands of euros. What's more, the results must reach the specialist within an hour. In this sector a reliable supply of good-quality power is vital to guarantee patient safety. So the medical sector needs a serious partner like ELINEX, who has the required knowledge and experience with standards such as NEN 3 134 and IEC 601 - 1 - 1.
New developments demand greater security of supply
The medical world is continually advancing. Analytical laboratory equipment, for instance, is getting bigger and more complex. Vast quantities of information need to be stored efficiently. For all these patient data must obviously remain easily accessible. The Electronic Patient Dossier is one example of ongoing digitalization.
Another trend is to concentrate health centres at a single location. ELINEX is closely monitoring this trend and responding by tailoring its advice to the new and changing requirements. UPS installations are not only getting bigger but must also be set up on a redundant basis. The product portfolio of ELINEX caters to all these new needs.
And then the aftercare
Clearly, a well-defined UPS configuration is of vital importance within the medical sector. But optimal security can only be obtained via a preventive and corrective maintenance agreement that takes effect as soon as the system has been delivered. ELINEX offers a choice of maintenance agreements tailored to the specific needs of this sector.
