BED AND MATTRESS COMPATIBILITY
VENDLET Basic is intended for mounting on a wide range of
hospital and care beds and with a wide range of mattresses.
The following bed and mattress requirements must be met.
Bed requirements
The bed must meet the EN 60601-2-52 standard or the expired
EN 1970 or EN 60601-2-38 standards.
The bed must have a square steel frame (dimensions H 45-78
mm, W min. 20 mm, L min. 1840 mm) without protrusions.
Inner distance between the head- and foot board must be at
least 201 cm. The bed width is not crucial as extra wide turning
sheets and slide sheets are available.
VENDLET Basic can be mounted on most beds with these
dimensions. But situations where VENDLET Basic cannot be
mounted can occur.
The maximum user weight and safe working load
of the bed must not be exceeded following the
installation of VENDLET Basic, see page 27.
Mattress requirements
The mattress must meet the requirements of the
bed manufacturer and be suitable for the bed.
The maximum user weight specification of the mattress must
not be exceeded.
Following the mounting of the VENDLET Basic,
the distance between the mattress sides and side
rails must be minimum 2.5 cm and maximum 4
cm, see page 26.
If the mattress is soft and easily compressible,
it must be ensured that there is no entrapment
hazard due to extra compression at the edge of
the mattress.
When alternating air mattresses are used, it should be possible
to inflate the mattress to a firm state before VENDLET Basic is
operated. Soft mattresses will increase the friction against the
mattress and create an uneven base which will be uncomforta-
ble for the client when VENDLET Basic is operated.
If the client changes mattress, the VENDLET
installation must be evaluated. A new mattress
might change the conditions and necessitate the
reinstallation of VENDLET Basic to reduce the risk
of entrapment.
