Ceiling-Mounted Supply Units Revitalize Hospital Workspace

Hospital personnel can also flexibly integrate, remove, or vary the arrangement of gas, power, and data supply modules by means of a simple tool. Support heads can be set up individually on all four sides and over their entire length, and the front and rear of the units are no longer fixed mounted, as in previous ceiling-mounted supply units.

Components such as rotatable LED lights, cable remote controls for anesthetics, or drawers without handles can be attached at the optimum place on a multifunctional rail using a simple click mechanism. The components are then securely fixed in place, supplied with electricity, and immediately ready for operation. It is also possible to attach a standard rail to the multifunctional rail for standard accessories, such as baskets, infusion rod holders, or monitor support arms. Individual elements can be flexibly changed in terms of their position or even retrofitted thanks to standardized interfaces.

An electro-pneumatic brake system with a friction brake, coupled to an internal bus system, facilitates positioning of the ceiling-mounted supply unit and enhances safety during handling. The respective operating elements can be attached to any side and at any height without tools thanks to an intuitive use of the patented color-coded brake system. Three different support head sizes are available, and all support heads can be varied between 25 cm and 175 cm, in increments of 25 cm. The maximum load depends on the configuration and support arm lengths, and ranges between 120 kg and 340 kg. Several versions offer motorized height adjustment, as well as both one and two-arm models. The Trumpf TruPort ceiling-mounted supply units are a product Trumpf (Puchheim, Germany).
