6. Defining the mounting positions
6.1 General requirements
All devices for the nurse call
system
Devices with displays
Call switches, Call devices
Presence buttons
Optical signalling devices
Signal lamps, Corridor displays
- Considering the different users, the process of raising a call
must be simple and unambiguous, and a mix-up with other system
elements must be virtually impossible.
- Damage or destruction from external effects which may occur
during normal use (e.g. when moving beds) must be virtually
impossible.
- Must not be installed in rooms with harmfull influences to telecommunications
equipment.
- Unobstructed view must be ensured (ComTerminal, Room‐
Terminal, ComStation CT , ComStation T ).
- Not subject to direct sun radiation.
- Easy access and reach must be ensured.
- Near the door.
- Visual recognition must not be obscured by other stray light.
- Called or paged persons shall be directed via the shortest
distance to the call location.
- Shall be easily allocated to the respective rooms.
Room lamps
In WCs and wet rooms - Comply with specifications acc. to DIN VDE 0100!
Power supply units,
OSYlink modules,
OSYnet-SafetyController,
OSYnet‐Y‐RepeaterOpto,
OSYnet‐Gateway
Distributor cabinets for both
nurse call system and mains
power supply
- Use in dry rooms only; if possible within distribution cabinets
(not inside of patient or resident rooms).
- Easy access at any time (access door at least 60 cm wide).
- Heat transfer must not be blocked off.
- When installed in switch cabinets, forced-air cooling may be
required.
- Considering the effective voltage drop, the power supply unit
should be located close to the biggest users.
- Fire hazard! Danger of fire in case of short-circuit. Therefore,
ensure sufficient ventilation in distribution cabinets.
- After removing the outer cover, the high-voltage part must still
be protected.
- Connection terminals for the nurse call system and those for
the high-voltage installations must be clearly separated and
designated as such, e.g. by way of design, shape, colour. Inscriptions
alone are not sufficient to preclude misuse.
