Health Care Electrical Solutions

Health Care

Technology is an important part of the way patients are treated, but many health care facilities are dealing with aging infrastructures that need to be modernized to meet new demands. Eaton’s approach enables these facilities to meet modern expectations, as well as maintaining a high standard of reliability—because health care facilities simply cannot afford interruptions in power.

reliabilityReliability

  • Health care facilities require a safe, reliable source of power. Eaton’s solutions include many ways to ensure the facility has power no matter what the scenario, including quick connections to generators, paralleling switchgear, transfers switches and UPS units to provide uninterrupted power until backup generators can take over.
  • With systems analysis and design, Eaton engineers can be sure the power system of the facility has the flexibility to adapt to changing requirements.

efficiencyEfficiency

  • Eaton’s provides solutions that help health care facilities reduce operating costs by taking a comprehensive approach to power system design and operation. Meters and software track energy usage to find opportunities for savings. Tools like occupancy sensors, energy audits and lighting controls help manage energy costs proactively.

safetySafety

  • Eaton is dedicated to safety of people and equipment throughout the entire power system. Eaton’s products and solutions are designed to distance and protect people from potential hazards.

Energy auditsEnergy audits
Eaton experts identify inefficiencies in the total consumption of energy from all sources—electricity, gas, steam, vacuum and compressed air. Then, engineers identify where waste is occurring and recommend and implement efficient solutions to shrink energy use.
Arc flash hazard analysisArc flash hazard analysis
This service identifies places in the power system where there is risk of an arc flash event. Once dangers are known, they can be managed with equipment, training and proper labeling.
trainingElectrical safety training
This training helps employees to stay safe by teaching them how to identify and avoid danger.
Project managementProject-management services
Eaton project managers offer a single point of accountability for complex construction projects. This streamlines coordination, helping complete projects on time and on budget with turnkey assistance.
Satellites and Services CentersSatellites and Services Centers
Eaton is the only electrical manufacturer with regionally located manufacturing plants across the United States to cater to your individual needs. Satellites can specify, develop and manufacture customized products and solutions locally. This gives customers local access to market knowledge and in-depth technical skills and lets them take advantage of emergency response and quick-ship schedules when required.
Quick connectQuick connect assembly
If utility power fails, the quick connect makes connecting a generator quick and easy, without the need for skilled electricians.
Paralleling switchgearParalleling switchgear
If power is interrupted, the paralleling switchgear manages critical transactions from the power company to an onsite generator, protecting vital health care functions from any disruption.
Automatic isolation transfer switchesAutomatic isolation transfer switches
If utility power stops or falls below an acceptable range, automatic transfer switches can activate onsite generated power to provide emergency power to life safety and other critical loads throughout the facility. This fast response ensures equipment uptime and uninterrupted high-quality patient care.
UPS unitsUPS units
UPS units ensure clean, uninterrupted power to keep critical functions running until backup generators can take over, protecting data and patient care.
Power Xpert software and metersPower Xpert software and meters
With Power Xpert software and meters, health care facility managers are able to monitor the power system real time with an easy-to-use Web interface. By having this information available, many problems can be avoided before they happen.
Variable frequency drivesVariable frequency drives
Variable frequency drives adjust a motor’s speed to match changing output requirements. Therefore, energy isn’t wasted in maintaining a constant motor speed. As a result, systems that respond to changing environmental conditions consume less energy.
Power factor correction capacitorsCapacitors
These capacitors allow facilities to generate the reactive power needed to improve utilization, eliminating the need to source it from the utility. By reducing consumption, the facility is able to see immediate energy cost savings.
Harmonic mitigating transformersHarmonic mitigating transformers
These transformers reduce harmful harmonic currents that disrupt the flow of energy in a circuit, thus making consumption more efficient and reducing overall energy consumption costs.
Lighting control software and occupancy sensorsLighting control software and occupancy sensors
This simple solution reduces overall energy costs by detecting when a space is occupied and turning lights off when a room is empty or natural light is strong.
Molded case circuit breakersMolded case circuit breakers with Digitrip programmable technology
These circuit breakers shut down the circuit when there is an overload, reducing the risk of fire and equipment damage and protecting people.
Surge protection equipmentSurge protection equipment
Surge-protection devices are designed to minimize damage to equipment when there’s a surge in voltage on an electrical circuit. The device detects the anomaly and temporarily diverts surge current away from the equipment it’s protecting, whether it is highly sensitive lab equipment or servers in the data center.
Alternative energyAlternative energy
