Medical gas systems infrastructure

Why is Medical Gas Infrastructure Vital?

Operating rooms, intensive care units, emergency departments, and patient rooms in hospitals require an uninterrupted flow of medical gas. Medical oxygen, medical air, vacuum, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide gas function directly as life support agents in surgeries, anesthesia, and ventilator therapy.

Transporting these gases from central plants to patient headwalls safely, without leaks, and at target pressure levels is only possible through flawlessly designed pipeline networks and control systems.

System Components and Standards

The key components that establish the safety of medical gas systems are:

  • Medical Gas Outlets: Special color-coded connectors that allow oxygen, vacuum, or air hoses to be connected to the line leak-free within seconds.
  • Area Control Units and Alarm Panels: Digital panels that alert technicians audibly and visually about any pressure or flow drops/surges in the pipelines.
  • Central Gas Stations: The heart of the system including gas manifolds, oxygen generators, medical vacuum pumps, and dry compressed air compressors.

HTM 02-01 and EN ISO 7396-1 Standards

The design and installation of medical gas pipelines must comply with international HTM 02-01 (Health Technical Memorandum) and EN ISO 7396-1 standards. Oley Tıbbi Ürünler offers projelendirme, installation, testing, and commissioning services in compliance with these standards through its expert teams.
