 What BMET’s need to know about Batteries and Battery Management Systems in Mobile Point of Care equipment.

 

 HES is a manufacturer of mobile power systems.  We do this without being tied to any one mobile cart manufacturer; we offer our system as an embedded product in new carts and as a retrofit to fielded carts.  We can offer guidance and advice without a strict bias toward any specific cart or cart manufacturer.  Our competence is power and its application in various environments.

 

Topics include:   

 

     Which battery is optimum for hospital cart use ?·                                                     

 

     How to maximize run times and reduce the need for tethered recharge ?·

  

     How to minimize the cost of battery replacement t?·      

 

    Are Enterprise Management Software Systems useful ?·    

 

    Can you upgrade carts economically ?

 

    What are the tradeoffs vs. buying new ?  

 

    New issues and changes in the industry.

 

 

When medical equipment is utilized for patient care, the state of charge of the battery is always critical. Whether it is Mobile Point of Care, Mobile Transport Devices or Critical Stationary Equipment, a reliable, accurate power source is required to keep those devices running. HES is dedicated to improving the control and monitoring of Critical DC power applications and to meeting the needs of the Medical Mobility industry.
