Electrical safety

3.1 Positioning of the electrical equipment
Make sure that electrical equipment on the uni-cart, pro-cart, duo-cart,
compact-cart, classic-cart or endo-cart carrier system does not get wet.
Under no condition should you position the products, which may lead to
loss of their fluidness, over the electrical equipment or extension lead in
which fluidity may be permeate.
Energy column (compact-cart, classic-cart, endo-cart)
3.2 and vertical column (uni-cart, pro-cart)
columns, with uni-cart and pro-cart is in the vertical column. The socket strip or the cabling system are located in the left or right power
Power columns are located on the left and right behind the vertical
extrusion and permit optimum accommodation of the power equipment cables
available. Do not drill holes in the power columns / vertical
columns because power cables may be located inside the columns.
3.3

Gases

Electrical equipment should not be operated in the vicinity of gases, e.g.
flammable gas used in anaesthesia or similar gases. The user is respon-
sible for maintaining this requirement and for compliance with EN
60601-1-2 regulations.
3.4 Equipotential bonding (POAG)
Equipotential bonding should be carried out for the uni-cart, pro-cart, duo-cart, classic-cart
or endo-cart carrier system with an isolating transformer. The equipotential bonding cable should
be first connected to the base of the uni-cart, pro-cart, duo-cart, classic-cart or endo-cart
carrier system and then be connected to the equipotential bonding plug in the room. The
equipotential bonding lines should then be connected to the equipotential bonding terminal for the
equipment.
3.5 Isolating transformer – leakage current
The uni-cart, pro-cart, duo-cart, compact-cart, classic-cart or endo-cart carrier system is intended
to provide a practical and mobile workstation for medical electrical equipment. Total earth leakage
currents must not exceed a maximum value of 0.5 mA so that the entire medical electrical system
can be compliant with IEC 60601-1-1.
