PNEUMATIC TUBE SYSTEMS - Hospital
SYSTEM NW110

Arriving fast and safe anytime
Pneumatic tube systems are the fastest, cheapest, and most reliable way of transporting small items within hospitals. A 110 mm diameter pneumatic tube system is most suitable for transporting laboratory samples, medicines as well as various documents and radiographs.

An overview of system components
Carrier are gently sent from a dispatching station using blower-generated intake and compressed air, via a tube system to a receiving station where they are ejected from the system.
Several types of station differing in their function and operation are used depending on application. Depending on type the capsule can be inserted either from above, from below or from the front. Multi-magazine dispatch stations are used in such higher dispatch frequency departments as, for example, laboratories, pharmacies or blood banks. The destination is chosen via the station’s user interface.

In addition, line diverters ensure accessibility of all stations to a system. Distribution units or “high-capacity” transfer units provide for fast accessibility and increased efficiency in systems with high transfer frequency.

Monitoring and control for more security
The real-time monitoring using a system-connected PC does not only visualise, record, and evaluate all of the system’s processes, but also makes it possible to remote control individual stations as well as to carry out remote maintenance of the system.

It’s never too late
Integrating new pneumatic tube systems into existing buildings does not represent a problem. Our systems convince with high flexibility of design and installation. Thus, beside their use within one building, they can also serve as a connection between objects separated by miles.
