IRECTION KTI106052, REVISION 10 SERVICE MANUAL
2-2 Section 2-2 - General Console Requirements
2-2-2 Electrical Requirements
GE Healthcare requires a dedicated power and ground for the proper operation of its Ultrasound
equipment. This dedicated power shall originate at the last distribution panel before the system.
Sites with a main power system with defined Neutral and Live:
The dedicated line shall consist of one phase, a neutral (not shared with any other circuit), and a full
size Ground wire from the distribution panel to the Ultrasound outlet.
Sites with a main power system without a defined Neutral:
The dedicated line shall consist of one phase (two lines), not shared with any other circuit, and a full
size Ground wire from the distribution panel to the Ultrasound outlet.
NOTE: Please note that image artifacts can occur, if at any time within the facility, the Ground from the main
facility's incoming power source to the Ultrasound unit is only a conduit.
2-2-2-1 Voluson i / Voluson e Power Requirements
The Voluson i / Voluson e is powered either by its internal battery or by a separate power supply adapter
unit connected to a separate outlet for any range of 100 - 250 VAC, 47-63 Hz.
2-2-2-2 Inrush Current
Inrush current is not a factor for consideration, due to the inrush current limiting properties of the power
supplies.
2-2-2-3 Site Power Outlets
A dedicated AC power outlet must be within reach of the unit without extension cords. Other adequate
outlets for the external peripherals, medical and test equipment needed to support this unit must also
be present within 1 m (3.2 ft.) of the unit. Electrical installation must meet all current local, state, and
national electrical codes.
2-2-2-4 Main Power Plug
The Voluson i / Voluson e portable ultrasound system is supplied with a main power plug, as standard.
In the event that the unit arrives without a power plug, or with the wrong plug, contact your GE dealer.
When necessary, the installation engineer will supply the appropriate power plug to meet the applicable
local regulations.
2-2-2-5 Power Stability Requirements
• Voltage drop-out
Max 10 ms.
• Power Transients
(All applications)
Less than 25% of nominal peak voltage for less than 1 millisecond for any type of transient, including
line frequency, synchronous, asynchronous, or aperiodic transients.
