MEDICAL GAS SYSTEMS
OUR HOSPITAL SYSTEMS ARE DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE DIVERSE REQUIREMENTS WITHIN THIS SPECIALIZED FIELD
The Foxolution offering is engineered to:
-
- Supply a Primary source of Oxygen-93% continuously to the Healthcare facility.
- Automatically manage a secondary supply and distribute it to the facility as required with no user input.
- Automatically manage a reserve supply and distribute it to the facility as required with no user input.
- Optionally provide Oxygen-93% for cylinder filling during periods of low demand from the Healthcare facility.
Other configurations are available.
Systems are tailored to each use case and are engineered in accordance with ISO7396-2:2016 (E)
