Mains power supply At the central feed point, the individual connections for mains- power and communications equipment and medical gases are grouped together and kept separate in accordance with rel-evant standards. All connections for all types of energy can be individually disconnected from the building’s wiring system. Connections for mains-power and communications are ar- ranged on separate, individually tagged and numbered spring-type terminals. All incoming pro-tective conductor connections are grouped together on a PE bus and bonded to the basic section of the medical supply system using a 16 mm

CONCAVE Design and technical features

Medical gases Gas outlets for medical gases and vacuum are installed and tested at the factory ready for connection. CONCAVE 200 can accommodate up to six gas pipes (8–12 mm Ø + 1x 15mm Ø for anasthetic gas extraction). The CU pipes used meet the requirements of the relevant standards. Communications equipment System components of light call and nurse emergency call sys-tems as well as outlets for tele-communications equipment and patient monitoring apparatus can be fitted. CONCAVE’s extruded aluminium section is flush-mounted on the wall using wall fixing components. Screwless cover trims that are available in a natural anodised finish or RAL colours 9010 and 9002 as standard (other RAL colours available on request) emphasise the consistent, harmonious surface structure of the medical supply unit. Section covers in a natural anodised fin-ish are available with or without integral mounting track. This enables monitors and compact medical equipment to be ar- ranged as required.The load carrying capacity of the mounting track is 50 kg per run- ning metre. CONCAVE is sup- plied ready for connection as an individually tested medical supply unit. Like the pipes from the gas outlet valves, the electrical wiring for mains-power and communications equipment is routed to a central connection point that can be fed either from the rear or from the front. Mains-power components All common mains-power com-ponents such as safety sockets for standard supply systems as well as SV and ZSV, switches, momentary-action switches, dimmers, equipotential bonding pins (flush-mounted) and CEE outlets can be integrated into the system and are ready for connection to the medical sup- ply unit’s central connection point. Night lighting Background lighting enables care staff and patients to find their bearings at night. Light source: TC/5 W compact flu- orescent lamp.
2 bus. This is internally used as a bus for individual connections of protec- tive conductors throughout the entire system. Potential equali- sation sockets are also connect- ed in conformity with standards. Connections for medical gas supply are unmistakably identi-fied by locating outlets in differ-ent positions.
