Steve Attri, product manager, Air Distribution Technologies, stated:
As operating rooms become more complex with advancements in technology and the continuous desire to enhance patient care, the amount of surgical and communication equipment has expanded. The state-of-the-art, ceiling-mounted Nexus OR Suite seamlessly connects air, light and more while freeing up room space crucial in today’s designs. Surgical teams will appreciate improved visibility thanks to direct, high-output LED lighting.
The Nexus OR Suite has been specifically designed to make the best use of limited ceiling space by integrating OR-grade LED lighting within laminar airflow diffusers, which help isolate and protect the patient from contaminated air. It simplifies compliance with the requirements for airflow and coverage area for ASHRAE 170, which provides guidance for ventilation in healthcare facilities (including surgery rooms), along with IEC Standard 60601-2-41:2021, which outlines requirements for safety and performance of surgical luminaires.
Further, the customizable Nexus OR Suite uses a common, low-profile plenum, and the factory-assembled, pre-fabricated, ready-to-install modular sections can easily fit through doors and elevators to allow quick and easy installation in new construction or retrofit applications.
The Nexus OR Suite is available in two customizable models — a standard model and a heavier-duty model, the Nexus OR Suite-S, that can accommodate a wide range of suspended equipment, including all necessary lighting and booms.
