Schneider Electric Takes a Healthy Approach to HEFMA

Schneider Electric highlighted the specialist support and advice it can offer the healthcare sector at this year’s HEFMA event.

As the global specialists in energy management, Schneider Electric provides a complete range of integrated electrical solutions and services for medical facilities, through its renowned brands including Merlin Gerin, Square D, Telemecanique, Clipsal, Pelco, APC and TAC. Their high efficiency products help customers make the most of their energy, offering flexibility and easy maintenance, while ensuring the optimum comfort and well being of patients.  In addition, Schneider Electric can help reduce asset management costs, extend product life expectancy and maximise usage.

Among the services offered by Schneider Electric is MP4; a consultancy service that provides recommendations to help organisations control risks, optimise management of an installation and identify energy savings.  A communication tool helps the customer present the conclusions of the approach and the recommended action plans internally and an on-line report of the installed base provides permanent access to a description of the equipment and its history.

There are four steps to the MP4 service.  The first step identifies an organisation’s electrical energy needs based upon critical processes, unwanted events that need to be prevented and locating the main energy consuming equipment.

Step two assesses the stress levels the electrical equipment is subjected to, accounting for humidity, temperature, load rate and the number of switching operations. 

Step three analyses the electrical network’s performance, which impacts on critical equipment, predictive maintenance and emergency situations.

Taking into account the previous steps, the fourth element draws up plans to ensure lasting and improved performance of an installation, which includes maintenance, monitoring, modernisation and management.
