The Gas Control Station (GCS) from Dräger is a complete facility system with solutions for various medical gases, flow rates, control and alarm functions and equipment.
- Suitable gases: O2, N2O, CO2, Air, N2, Xe, He and Ar
- Flow rates of 35, 80 oder … More information
120 m³/h
GCS Basic with pressure gauge monitoring
Integrated Alarm Management
Interface to external alarm systems (e.g. BMS)
In accordance with DIN EN ISO 7396-1
Upgradable platform concept
The Gas Control Station platform concept enables adaptation to the respective gas supply requirements in the hospital. In addition to the three different flow performance levels with 35, 80 or 120 m³/h, the control unit and the alarm system may be customized in different variations.
Upgrading from the performance level 80 to 120 m³/h or from Version GCS Basic to GCS control remains possible later on, even during active operation.
All components under the removable housing are easily accessible and designed so that all necessary service activities may be performed without interrupting the gas supply.
All GCS versions are pneumatically controlled. Thus even during a possible power failure, the gas supply remains ensured. The GCS Basic is equipped for monitoring the system pressures with contact manometers and the switch-over valve position can be queried via the potential free contacts.
The GCS control is equipped with an electronic control unit that monitors, analyzes and displays the active supply side, the system pressures, the current flow and even the room temperature in a lighted display and in plain text.
Alarms and operation messages are indicated on the control unit according to standard ISO 7396-1 with the respective alarm priority.
In addition, all messages and operational parameters may be transferred via an Alarm System Interface to the Dräger Alarm Management System. The information will then be displayed via separate light and text displays or the data is forwarded via a gateway to the existing building management system.
