UPS systems for hospitals and healthcare
With an increasing reliance on computerised hospital processes and digital patient records being introduced throughout the NHS, the integrity of those databases and servers are becoming increasingly important. A power outage, even of a few milliseconds, can crash servers and result in hours of data re-entry and confusion while systems are rebooted and restored. In worst case scenarios such power loss could lead to loss of patient records or vital equipment during an operation, threatening life. Diesel generators offer an element of protection, but without UPS systems they do not protect sensitive IT and diagnostics equipment. The 15 or more seconds of power failure before the generator is up to speed can cause interruptions to various medical procedures, including operations; this is not an option for today’s hospitals - NHS or private.
You need to work with a company that understands this and is experienced at providing both the NHS and private hospitals with uninterrupted power.
Chloride understands that the provision of uninterrupted power does not start and finish with the installation of the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system or generator. We offer comprehensive service and maintenance delivered by the largest dedicated service network in the country to ensure you remain operational.
In addition all Chloride products are made to the very highest standard to offer optimal energy efficiency and subsequent economic benefits and our dedicated project management department, experienced with both UPS and diesel generator installations, can oversee the design, installation and commissioning of the entire backup power infrastructure.
