Hospitals have undergone a dramatic

transformation in the past 20 years.

The development of less intrusive

medical techniques has meant that

patient recovery times have been greatly

reduced. As a result, day surgery clinics

are now a feature of almost all hospitals.

The hospital environment, too, is now a

less intrusive one. No longer clinical and

cold, patient accommodation today is

often of hotel standard. Although there

is a greater reliance on hi-tech support

equipment, this is now designed to blend

into the surroundings, creating a more

relaxed environment for both patients and

medical staff.

The Medilec Range of hospital equipment

has been designed to meet this growing

demand for hospital services and

equipment that are attractive and non-

intrusive. The range brings together

products and expertise from some of the

biggest names in medical and

electrical equipment around the world.

It is the first time that such an extensive

range is available from a single supplier.

The equipment is designed and

manufactured to exacting standards

to ensure compliance for these critical

applications. Standards include AS2500

“Guide to Safer Use of Electricity in

Patient Treatment Areas”, AS3003

“Electrical Installations - Patient

Treatment Areas of Hospitals and

Medical and Dental Practices”, and

AS3190 “Approval and Test Specification

- for Residual Current Devices”.

accessory that can be purchased

separately. Therefore the installer can

Royal Brisbane Hospital, QLD

Medilec ML2164 Series Flush Mount

Medilec Service Panels were installed in

the Royal Brisbane Hospital in

Queensland. A total of over 200 panels

were installed on over 5 floors.

The ML2164 system was used because

standard modular components are

quickly and easily assembled together in

the manufacturing process, achieving the

customer's custom panel requirements.

Only the facias were custom-made, and,

due to the ML2164 system being a grid

mount system, they were able to be

supplied at a later date without effecting

the installation.

Clipsal's local base ensured support was

available any time during the construction

stage, and will continute to be available

now that the hospital has been opened.

Royal Adelaide Hospital, SA

In just a short time, the Medilec ML2000

Series Electrical Accessories have

become widely respected as the future of

hospital electrical accessories.

When the Royal Adelaide Hospital was

upgraded, the ML2000 Series was

chosen because it's a very economical

and appealing Medical Service Panel

System that is quick and easy to install.

The ML2000 Series accessories were

purchased individually. On site, the

electrical contractor was able to

assemble each accessory together, along

with a variety of Clipsal 2000 Series

accessories, which allowed for any

design changes to be carried

out immediately.
