Medi-Products Battery Backup System Aesthetics and Features

What Do Battery Powered Generators Look Like?

asthetics

One of the best things about battery generators is that they can be installed inside a building, unlike fuel generators, which must be placed outside or on the roof.

Standalone units can be set up in the same room as the machines they help power.

Mobile units are like big, movable battery packs. You can move them around your building to wherever they are needed most.

Hardwired units are usually put near the electrical panel, but they don’t have to be. You can also place them in other spots inside your building.

If you choose to install a battery generator inside where people work and patients are, it’s important to consider how it looks. It might be best to put it in a spare closet, so it doesn’t take up too much space or look messy.

When we design our battery systems, we make sure they don't stand out. We want them to blend in with their surroundings. That's why we call our hardwired and standalone systems the "Silent Sentry." They stay quiet and hidden until you need them during a power outage.

But just because they blend in doesn’t mean they’re not built well. In fact, we use strong materials to ensure their durability. For our hardwired and standalone systems, we use off-white metal, and for our mobile units, we use shiny stainless steel.

Our battery systems are designed to save space. They are tall and slim, so they take up less floor space while still holding a lot of batteries.

The standalone and hardwired units are 18 inches long and 9.75 inches wide. Depending on the power they need to provide, they can be as short as 16 inches or as tall as 93 inches. They weigh between 160 and 800 pounds.

The mobile units are a bit bigger: 28.25 inches long, 16.5 inches wide, and 17.75 to 42.25 inches tall. They are built to be safe and have a useful top surface. They weigh between 155 and 765 pounds.

Our systems are built to go up, not out, which helps us fit more batteries without needing more floor space. The only things that change with our systems are their height and weight.

How Does a Standalone/Hardwired Silent Sentry Battery Backup Generator Look?

Standalone and Hardwired Systems are contained in metal cabinets treated with a powder-coated, off-white finish. Professional and understated—but still modern looking—they can be deployed inconspicuously anywhere in your facility.

Every standalone/hardwired cabinet arrives disassembled, broken into its three main components:

Main Cabinet
Battery Cabinets
Batteries

Battery cabinets attach to the main cabinet and each other in a "stacked" vertical orientation. They house batteries that store the emergency backup power you need during an outage. Additionally, the bottom-most cabinet will have holes to attach the two feet the system will stand on. If desired, these can be removed later.

The outsides of both the main cabinet and battery cabinet have 2-inch flanges. These flanges are necessary to mount the unit.

Main Cabinet Features

The main cabinet is the unit's most essential and easily recognizable part. It houses the inverter, which powers the appliances using the energy stored in the batteries. To keep the inverter cool, the front and sides of the cabinet have slits for air circulation.

The standalone and hardwired units have four three-pronged AC power outlets on the sides. If you need more outlets, we can provide custom solutions at the time of purchase.

The system's control panel is in the bottom right corner of the front face. This panel has a switch to turn the system on and off, and LED lights show the charging and operation status. Warning lights will also light up if there are issues like system overload, overheating, or low battery.

Below the main cabinet is a battery cabinet with cables connecting to the inverter. This battery cabinet will come with all necessary hardware, installation instructions, the input power cable, and the battery cables before installation.

Input/Output Power for Standalone Systems

The input power port is on the left side of the main cabinet, underneath the A/C power outlets. This is a standard 15-amp port with a male connector. Standard

Input/Output Power for Hardwire Systems

The hardwired units have built-in UL-489 circuit breakers on the bottom left of the front. This feature allows the unit to function as a small circuit panel or subpanel.

The top front edges of the hardwired unit have six small knockout holes on both sides. These holes connect the unit to your facility’s electrical panel.

The input power connections for hardwired systems are inside the main cabinet and should be installed by a licensed electrician.

How Does a Mobile Reassurance Battery Backup System Look?

Our Mobile Systems arrive fully assembled, enclosed in a sleek stainless-steel casing mounted on black, individually locking casters. We designed these systems with materials for sterile environments, such as operating theaters and clean laboratory rooms.

Depending on their storage capacity, Mobile units come with one, two, or three tiers of cabinets. All critical components are housed in the top cabinet.

The top cabinet has a clear, functional counter space, providing extra utility.

On the front face of the top cabinet, you’ll find four pairs of AC outlets—totaling eight outlets per cabinet.

The right side of the top cabinet features the input power port, a standard 15-amp port with a male connector.

Below the outlets is the LED control panel. The control panel on the Mobile unit is the same as that on the Standalone and Hardwired units. It includes an on/off switch and LED indicator lights showing charging and operating status. Warning lights will activate if there are issues such as system overload, overheating, or low batteries.

The Mobile unit also includes four black locking casters at the bottom of the lowest cabinet. These casters allow you to move the system around your facility as needed easily.

How Does a Power Outage Alert System Look?

The Medi-Products Power Outage Alert system is designed to notify up to four separate phone numbers when your facility loses power and backup power is activated.

This system comes in an off-white/grey color and has a compact, square shape, measuring 7.8 x 8.8 x 2.1 inches. When integrated with a battery backup system, it mounts seamlessly onto the front of the topmost cabinet, matching its aesthetic.

The front of the alert system features controls and an alpha-numeric keypad for programming the phone numbers that will receive notifications. It also includes LED indicators that show the status of the system’s power, battery, alarms, and phone lines.

On the top right corner of the alert system, you’ll find the input ports for both power and phone lines.
