Assembly and preparation
Auxiliary power sockets
Establishing potential equalization
Differences in electrical potential between devices
can be reduced by potential equalization.
Potential equalization does not replace the
protective ground connection.
In operation, the potential equalization connectors
must be readily accessible and must be removable
without tools.
Connecting the potential equalization cable
1
Connect the potential equalization cable to the
potential equalization pin (A) on the left-hand
side (rear view).
2
Connect the potential equalization cable to a
potential equalization connector of the hospital
(e.g., wall, ceiling supply unit, operating table).
3
Establish potential equalization to the auxiliary
devices.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
The connection of devices to auxiliary power
sockets can lead to an increased leakage
current. If the protective ground of one of
these devices fails, the leakage current may
rise above the permissible values.
– Only connect with the approval of the
respective device manufacturer.
– Have the leakage current checked by
service personnel.
– If the permissible value is exceeded, use a
mains power socket on a wall instead of
the auxiliary power socket of the device.
WARNING
Risk of device malfunction
If the mains power fails, devices connected to
the auxiliary power sockets are not supplied
from the uninterruptible power supply.
– Do not connect any life-supporting
devices to the auxiliary power sockets of
the anesthesia workstation.
– Ensure an alternative power supply for
connected devices.
WARNING
Risk of device malfunction
If high-frequency surgical devices are
connected to the auxiliary power sockets, the
leakage current can damage the electronics
of the medical device and lead to a failure.
Do not connect any high-frequency surgical
devices to the auxiliary power sockets of the
medical device.

NOTE
If the good condition of the protective ground or
its correct connection with the medical device
cannot be ensured, the device must be operated
via the internal power supply (battery).
