Thoughtful solutions throughout the hospital
Just how intelligent the solution is for a
hospital is illustrated particularly by the
fact that all the relevant requirements for
the numerous public areas of the hospital
are fulfilled. With its modularity and
flexibility, GAMMA instabus is ideally
suited to all a hospital‘s interests.
Patient rooms
• Room functions can also be set with a
hand-held remote control. This is
particularly important for patients
whose mobility is limited.
• Room functions are operated by means
of an illuminated pushbutton, clearly
labelled or provided with symbols.
These are ideally suited for patients
who must grapple with these buttons
on the spur of the moment.
• The timed air delivery and extraction
control guarantees high air quality.
• If a patient opens the window, the
heating is turned down automati-
cally.
• Patients who need help in the bath-
room can raise the alarm simply and
quickly by pulling the pushbutton
with pull actuation.
Restrooms
• The lighting and extraction system
can be presence-dependent. This is
convenient for patients with reduced
mobility and saves energy costs.
• Water sensors give early warning of
pipe fractures and flooding.
Ward center
• The ward center becomes distribution
center via a control panel, in order to
control building functions centrally at
the ward. Patients‘ rooms can also be
indicated and controlled. Alarms will be
indicated.
Conference room
• With one touch of a button, the entire
room can be switched to the current
mode of use (scenario control). For
example, when giving a presentation,
blinds are lowered, the projection
screen is rolled out, lights are switched
off in the area surrounding the screen
and lowered to 10 % in the rest of the
room, the beamer/digital projector is
switched on – all by one touch of a
button.
• The presenter can also control these
scenes completely mobile with the
remote control.
Consulting rooms
• The lighting must be matched to the
current requirements, whether this be
dark for an ultrasound scan or bright for
a subsequent puncture.
Operating rooms/intensive care ward
• Coloured socket outlets offer secure
distinction between a no-break power
supply and a normal mains supply.
• In an emergency, there is no time for
lengthy searches and therefore
switches and socket outlets must be
clearly labelled or marked with
symbols.
• In Group 2 areas used for medical
purposes, e.g. operating rooms and
intensive care wards, changeover
devices and earth leakage monitors
guarantee the power supply for
operating room lights, oxygen
resuscitation equipment and
ventilators, or refrigerators with
valuable drugs.
• In order to guarantee permanent
availability of the power supply, any
fault reports will be transferred quickly
and securely via GAMMA instabus. This
improves safety for patients and
hospital staff alike and reduces
maintenance costs.
... and the right control for every task
• The best technology is useless if it is
difficult to operate. GAMMA instabus
was therefore designed to be so user-
friendly that an inhibition threshold
isn‘t even allowed to appear in the first
place. Despite its impressive range of
functions, the system is very simple
and convenient to use: from the
familiar switches, remote controls,
operating displays, touch panels or
via a central visualization PC.
• In hospitals, there are also high hygiene
criteria for the pushbuttons. Stable,
environmentally friendly thermoplasts
are particularly hygienic, because they
are easy to clean.
