Clinical and Service Value

The Rear Casters by GE Healthcare enhance the mobility and safety of ultrasound systems in clinical settings. Their robust design allows for easy maneuverability, which is essential in busy hospital environments. The individual braking system ensures that equipment remains securely in place during examinations, thereby reducing the risk of accidents and equipment damage. This feature is particularly beneficial in high-traffic areas where space is limited and quick adjustments are often necessary.

Moreover, the casters are designed for easy maintenance and longevity, featuring shock absorbers that contribute to smoother operation and reduced wear over time. Their durable construction and RoHS compliance further ensure that they meet stringent safety and environmental standards. By investing in high-quality components like the Rear Casters, healthcare facilities can improve workflow efficiency and enhance the overall user experience for both clinicians and patients, ultimately leading to better healthcare delivery.

Additional notes

The Rear Casters comes as a part of 2D cardiovascular ultrasound system which is a digital ultrasound imaging system. It has four casters (wheels) - two front casters and two rear casters. The front casters can be locked in fixed directions. The rear casters have brakes that are operated individually for each caster. It has a capacity of bearing a nominal load of 35 kg, while the peak load can be 150 kg. The brake can be operated by means of lever and maximum lever force that can be applied is 80 N. It can be maintained in a locked position at maximum load. It is fastened to manifold unit by a hex key by applying a torque of 130 NM. It is provided with shock absorbers so that the equipment functions smoothly. It is an essential part for safety. The surfaces are polished and machined at particular locations for good grip and braking. Additional Features: Strong and hard and can bear a wide range of load Quick motion inhibiting brakes RoHS compliant
