Overview
Powered hospital beds and patient lifts combine multiple actuators and control panels that must operate reliably through years of daily articulation and cleaning cycles.
Design & Construction
Multi-Actuator Power Distribution
Centralized harness architecture distributes power to head, foot, and height actuators from a single control box, simplifying bed frame wiring and service access.
Washdown-Rated Connector Sealing
IP66-rated connectors and sealed junctions withstand routine disinfectant wipe-down and occasional washdown cleaning required in clinical environments.
Manufacturing Process
Assembled under ISO 13485 process controls with continuity and actuator-cycle testing, supporting hospital bed and patient lift OEMs across new-build and refurbishment programs.
Typical Applications
- Bed actuator power wiring
- Nurse call and control panel cabling
- Patient lift motor harnesses
- Bed exit sensor wiring
- Side rail control interconnects
Common installations include Bed actuator power wiring, Nurse call and control panel cabling, and Patient lift motor harnesses, where biocompatibility, electrical safety, and continuous fail-safe operation are the primary design drivers. The same base design can also be adapted for Bed exit sensor wiring and Side rail control interconnects with minor changes to connector type or cable length.
