Leviton Adds Medical-Grade Power Strips for Use in Patient-Care Areas

Power Channels: Power Quality Protection

Leviton Manufacturing Co., Inc. has introduced a new line of medical-grade power strips for use in patient care areas of health care facilities. Designed to supply power to medical equipment within the most critical areas of a health care facility, the devices are UL 60601-1, UL 60950-1 and UL 1363A compliant for the highest level of safety. The line also features surge-protective models that conform to UL 1449 third edition requirements.

Leviton’s new line of medical grade power strips are tested to U.S., Canadian and Mexican safety standards, satisfying the electrical safety requirements specified in NFPA 99: Health Care Facilities Code and NEC Article 517: Healthcare Facilities. This enables health care facility managers to ensure full compliance with these safety regulations.

Additional safety features include locking safety covers to prevent accidental contact with unused outlets, indicator lights to provide visual confirmation of power and surge protection, and a switchless design to prevent accidental disruption of power.

Leviton’s medical grade power strips are available in a number of configurations to fit nearly any application, including two, four or six hospital grade outlets; seven or 15 inch supply cord lengths with hospital grade attachment plugs; and with or without surge protection.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
