Large electrical transformers ensure patient safety

REO UK has launched PROMED, a series of large electrical transformers designed to provide fully isolated power in operating theatres and other medical environments. The transformers are said to be fully compliant with the EN 60601 medical directive, offering low current leakage and efficient isolation.

The technical specifications of PROMED are similar to that of the REOMED range of compact medical transformers. However, due to its larger size the product is capable of achieving higher powers, offering a more comprehensive power supply for larger medical devices.

PROMED transformers act as a fully isolated central power supply for medical systems, protecting them from power quality problems in adjacent circuits. The transformers are claimed to offer high-energy efficiency and protection against short-circuiting and overloading, with a minimal magnetic stray field to reduce the likelihood of interference.

The devices are available in both single and three-phase versions, in powers ranging from 3000 to 8000 voltage ammeters (VA) dependent on the specific model. REO UK also offers custom voltages and higher capacities for the three-phase version upon request.
