Recommended architectures for Healthcare buildings

Lisäarvot

Main drivers

Since designing, installing and maintaining a hospital installation is complex and hazardous, it requires mastery of architectures, products and service offers, from the early preliminary design to operations.
Patient safety is mandatory: the power supply must never be lost, nor an electrical disturbance produce human outages.
Risk management is compulsory. How to prevent any outage, how to prove that all means have been taken into account.

Solution in brief

IEC "End to End" power solutions for Healthcare consist of a consistent library of recommended architectures, for different levels of power sizing and redundancy level.
A recommended architecture is defined by its electrical diagram, the definition of equipment, the maintenance requirements, from utility feeder down to critical loads.

Value proposition

Peace of mind: High availability solutions , consistent, with field experience embedded. Homogeneous across the complete power system, from utility feeder down to critical loads. Compliance with standards.
Business continuity / disaster recovery: Critical info delivered to right person at the right time
Qualified solutions: the solutions offer a range of 3 x level of redundancy, with unavailability values from 17.26 to 0.64 hours of yearly downtime, and estimates of Total Cost of Ownership (to help in selecting the best alternative considering customer needs).

Differentiation factors

These solutions are consistent, with field experience embedded. As the strength is that of the weakest link, they proposed a homogeneous solution across the complete power system.
They fully integrate measure & monitoring for risk management and traceability.
Pre-engineered solutions allow for improved performances, more engineering and studies than one-shot projects.

Ratkaisun arkkitehtuuri

Pääominaisuudet

Energy availability: dependability study (statistical values for reliability and availability)
Energy savings: "End to end power solutions for Healthcare Buildings" integrate energy metering in main equipment, in order to provide facility managers with guidelines for potential savings.
Environmental impact: Equipment selection is optimised for major performance and limitation of environmental impact (reduced losses, copper section, plastic quantities, etc.).
