Operating Room Panels

This unit is most often used to supply 120V service to the receptacles in an operating room. However, its use is not restricted to that application; it can also be used in critical care areas. This panel incorporates:

• The isolation transformer
• A primary circuit breaker
• Eight secondary 2-pole circuit breakers (Panel is field expandable to 16 circuits)
• Iso-Gard® line isolation monitor (LIM)
• All panels are available from 3 to 25kVA

These panels are UL Listed under Section 1047 Isolated Power Systems Equipment.

Intensive Care/Coronary Care Panels

These panels incorporate the same components as the operating room panels, but have the added feature of eight power receptacles and six approved grounding jacks which connect to a ground bus for attaching fixed equipment and building structural grounds. The power receptacles are "hospital only" locking type receptacles. Duplex or single receptacles are available on request.

Although the panel is designed to serve the needs of a coronary or intensive care bed, it has been widely applied to provide power within special procedure rooms, cardivascular laboratories, and general operating rooms.

Dual Output Voltage Isolation Panels

This unit is a single, ungrounded hospital isolation panel that can supply two different output voltages simultaneously. Similar to a standard distribution panel or load center, it can supply both 120/208 volts or 120/240 volts of ungrounded, isolated, single-phase power using only one isolation transformer. Other hospital isolation panels can supply only one output voltage.

Duplex Isolation Panels

This unit is a single enclosure containing two complete 120V secondary hospital isolation systems. A divider in the unit's backbox separates the systems from top to bottom and front to back.

Each system has its own set of equipment:

• Primary circuit breaker
• Square D® isolation transformer
• Reference ground bus bar
• Iso-Gard line isolation monitor
• Load center

Three-Phase Isolation Panels

These panels are intended for use as a power supply for equipment such as surgical lasers, laminar airflow systems, and other three-phase specialty equipment used in hospital operating rooms. Three-phase isolation panels can range in size from 3.0 kVA to 25.0 kVA. Primary voltage to these panels can be either 208 or 480V delta and the secondary voltage is usually 208V. These panels can supply power to 208V three-phase loads and to 208V single-phase loads.

Controlled Panels

The Controlled Isolation Power Panel is designed to provide economical electric service for portable X-ray and Laser outlets. The panels are controlled by means of interposing contacts, interlocking circuitry, and PLC control. The panels serve various locations within the hospital.

Interposing contacts are limited to two circuits and are operated from the receptacle module.

Interlocking circuitry prevents more than one location from being used at any given time. A push-button station located in the panel controls the interlocking. If the panel location is inaccessible or inconvenient for operating room personnel, the push-button station is available in a separate module that can be installed at the nurses' station or any other convenient location.

PLC Controlled Panels incorporate the use on a PLC to operate as many receptacles as designed by the engineer. Typically a maximum of four receptacles are used. Programming is completed at the plant and can be changed at anytime. The circuits are controlled from the receptacle module by means of a switch located within the door mechanism.

Receptacle Modules

Receptacle modules are designed to interface with all Controlled Panels. They are fitted with the receptacle to match the equipment to be used with that particular module. The modules also come standard with a remote alarm indicator as required by the NEC. (NFPA-70 Article 517-160-(a),(4).(b),(1))

Panel-Mounted Indicator Alarms

Panel-mounted indicator alarms are designed for use with Square D operating room, intensive care/coronary care, and X-ray panels.

The ORIC-A model is complete with green, yellow, and red indicating lights mounted on stainless stem trim plate plus an audible alarm.

The ORIC-AC and ORIC-A5C units are furnished with green, yellow, and red indicator lights plus a millimmeter mounted on stainless steel trim plate. An audible alarm is included. ORIC-AC has a 2 mA milliammeter and ORIC-A5C has a 5 mA milliammeter.
