Medical Isolation Panels (Medical IPs) for Group 2 Medical Locations
Medical Isolation Panels (Medical IPs) are essential for ensuring electrical safety in critical areas known as Group 2 medical locations. These areas include operating theaters, intensive care units (ICUs), and other environments where patients are connected to life-supporting electrical equipment. The main features and functions of Medical IPs include:
Isolation Transformers:
Provide an isolated power supply to reduce the risk of electrical shock and interference with medical devices.
Maintain a continuous power supply during electrical faults.
Monitoring Systems:
Continuously monitor the integrity of the isolated power system and alert staff to any faults or leakage currents.
Ensure quick identification and rectification of electrical issues to maintain patient safety.
Alarms and Indicators:
Equipped with visual and audible alarms to notify healthcare personnel of any electrical faults or anomalies.
Indicators display the status of the power system, ensuring immediate awareness and response.
Compliance with Standards:
Designed to meet stringent international standards and regulations for electrical safety in medical environments, such as IEC 60364-7-710.
