Description
The TASC 2000 Series Pendants are designed to
conveniently dispense medical gas and electrical services
in the operating room suite or intensive care
environment. The TASC Pendant is available in a single
or double arm configuration and with or without vertical
movement. The pendant arm has rotation at the ceiling,
at the elbow of the upper and lower arm, and at the
pendant head.
The medical gas and electrical systems are complete for
single point connection to each gas service and electrical
circuit at the mounting platform.
The mounting platform shall be designed to support the
arm and the optional equipment carrier. The platform
shall include 6" long pigtails, with gas specific DISS
connections for mistake-free installation. The support
platform will also include an electrical junction box.
The arm length of the TASC 2401 is 39.4" (1000 mm)
from the center point of the ceiling tube to the pendant
head. The arm length of the TASC 2402 is 39.4"(1000
mm) for the upper arm and 39.4" (1000 mm) for the
lower arm.
The arm length of the TASC 2831 is 35.4" (900 mm)
from the center point of the ceiling tube to the pendant
head. The arm length of the TASC 2832 is 39.4" (1000
mm) for the upper arm and 35.4" (900 mm) for the lower
arm.
Each pivoting point of the arm has permanentlylubricated rotating bearing and adjustable stops for
controlling the degree of rotation. Each pivoting point
has the capability of up to 330° lateral rotation.
The electrical motor system shall control the up and
down vertical deflection of the pendant head through
23.6" (600 mm) of travel. The power requirements for
the motor shall be 115 volt/1 phase/60 hertz.
The pendant head shall be designed for a maximum of 10
medical gas outlets (quick connect or DISS), and any
combination of 10 electrical outlets, grounding jacks, or
monitoring receptacles. The pendant head will remain in
its working position at all points along the 330º arc of
travel and in any vertical position, even with an electrical
supply failure.
All medical gas outlets (quick connect and DISS) are
color-coded and labeled for quick identification.
An equipment carrier can be attached to the pendant
head to position shelves for monitors and other surgical
or critical care equipment. The shelves can be equipped
with drawers, brackets, and rail systems. The carrier
improves space management by locating equipment from
the floor to the pendant.
