1 GENERAL

1.1 Scope .1 Electronic components forming parts of computerized equipment and system controls are

sensitive to transients in electrical power lines and to short duration power outages. Provide protection against disruption caused by these conditions.

.2 Many electronic loads are non-linear. AC to DC convertors (rectifiers) and switching mode power supplies are examples of loads in which the load current is not proportional to the instantaneous voltage, or is discontinuous. Such non-linear loads create considerable harmonic distortion on the electrical system supplying the loads, even when the source voltage is a clean sine wave. The non-linear loads will distort that voltage wave, making it nonsinusoidal. Prevent this effect.

.3 Computerized equipment may generate spurious emissions in the form of conducted and radiated electrical/electromagnetic interference. The operation of sensitive electronic equipment may be impeded by such omissions. Ensure electromagnetic compatibility is complied with.

.4 For each and every system specified in Section 16700 to Section 16799, provide single line riser diagram depicting room location of every device in the system and mount diagram in suitably sized glass frame mounted adjacent to respective main control cabinet.

communication and signalling lines (i.e. spikes, glitches or surges). .2 Protection shall be for both common and differential modes. .3 The protection shall comply with the requirements of IEEE Standard 472 (ANSI/IEEE

C37.90) titles "Guide For Surge Withstand Capability Tests". .4 The vendor shall install the devices within his equipment enclosure or case, and clearly

label or otherwise identify the components used.

1.3 Memory Protection .1 Provide protection against memory loss due to short duration power failures. .2 This protection shall take the form of an internal auxiliary power supply for

microprocessor and memory components unless it is built from non-volatile components. .3 The equipment involved shall retain its status during interruptions lasting up to 20

seconds. It shall not be necessary to reload, reset or reprogram such equipment. .4 The equipment is not expected to continue functioning during the power outage.

Indicating lights and other signals may cease momentarily. However, upon power restoration (either normal or emergency) shall regain its status and resume its operation with no ill effect due to the interruption.

.5 The equipment shall indicate failure of auxiliary power supply by pilot light, message or other acceptable means.

1.4 Non-Linear Loads .1 Provide line filters to reduce the harmonic content of non-linear loads. Such filters shall

be mounted inside the equipment enclosure (the enclosure shall be increased in size if necessary) and shall limit total Distortion Factor (harmonic factor) to 3% as defined and


Section 16700General Provisions For Electronic /

Computerized EquipmentPage 2 of 2


measured in ANSI/IEEE Std 519 titled: "Guide for Harmonic Control and Reactive Compensation of Static Power Converters."

1.5 Electromagnetic Compatibility .1 Emission Limits:

.1 Equipment emission of electromagnetic radiation shall be limited to Class-B of FCC RULES PART-15 subpart - J as tested in accordance with FCC measurements procedure MP-4 titled: "FCC measurement of Radio Noise Emission from Computing Devices".

.2 The Consultant shall be notified where the above requirement cannot be met. The Consultant may authorize Class-A qualification or any other qualification of limited electromagnetic emission.

.2 Susceptibility Limits: .1 Equipment shall perform normally in presence of electromagnetic field of one

V/m in accordance with ANSI/IEEE C63.12 titled: "Recommended Practice on Procedures for Control of System Electromagnetic Compatibility".

.2 The susceptibility to power conducted emission of electromagnetic radiation shall be one volt as defined and measured in the standard in 1.5.2.1.

.3 Equipment shall be capable of performing on supply systems containing notches without false triggering of circuits. This should be for notch depth of 0.7 of the rated maximum line voltage and width of 250 microseconds as stipulated in the standard in 1.4.1.

.3 The Consultant shall be notified where equipment does not meet the requirements in 1.5.2 so that corrective measures can be sought.

1.6 Shop Drawings .1 For all section 16700 through 16799, shop drawing submission is to include a detailed

riser diagram and equipment layout showing all patching, outlet locations, equipment locations, and labelling information. These diagrams are to be modified through the course of construction and provided as part of the as-built documentation.

Skytron’s objective is to provide a program and guideline to assist individuals (hospital owners, architects, structural

engineers) responsible for the design of mounting structures.

The mounting structure of a Skytron fixture should always be considered the most important detail of any project prior

to installation. Skytron’s ceiling mounted systems depend upon properly designed and installed mounting structures

to deliver years of dependable, service-free performance.

We realize that individual mounting structures vary in design due to unique structural requirements, physical obstruc-

tions, structural member availability and room layout limitations, to name a few.

The mounting structure design in this Mounting Structure Guideline Booklet is a successful, proven design. The

design consists of a welded, “flanged tube” assembly combined with (4) angled sway braces (“kickers”). A structural

steel tube combined with welded steel plates on each end facilitate its attachment to the structural ceiling and provide

an attachment point for the Skytron fixture. This is a simple effective design that is forgiving to restricting structural

conditions that are usually encountered during fabrication.

This design also eliminates “guess work” by the steel fabricator when compared to structures that are fabricated on

site with angle iron. In many cases the “flanged tube” assembly can be pre-fabricated reducing the on-site construc-

tion time and eliminating the need to correct structural problems associated with angle iron structures.

The process of building a proper mounting structure can be complemented with Skytron’s continued support on the

project. Once the structures are fabricated, Skytron will perform a visual inspection and on-site consultation followed

by an actual performance test. The performance test of the structure essentially involves hanging a “test jig” from the

structure, and then measuring the amount of rotation that occurs at the mounting plate using an inclinometer (digital

level). The test jig is similar in size, shape, and weight to a Skyboom. In other words, once the test jig is installed and

the proper weights have been added to simulate the product’s moment load, a reading is taken on the digital level to

verify that there is no more that two-tenths of a degree of rotational movement at the mounting plate.

Rotation of the mounting plate causes the radial arm(s) to become out of level and drift. For a structure to meet

Skytron specifications, we require that the mounting plate does not rotate more that two-tenths of a degree while

loaded with the specified weight and moment.

The testing process should occur in the early stages of construction to provide optimal time if additional reinforcement

is needed on the structure. This should be performed prior to the completion of the finished ceiling.

Skytron’s program is available to help you and provide you with the necessary counseling. However, the final re-

sponsibility to insure that the structure is adequate and meets specification lies with the structural engineer and the

contractor for the project.

Our support services are geared to minimize the effort on all parties involved and to insure a successful product

installation.

This Mounting Structure is applicable for all SKYTRON Skyboom models.

We recognize that not all situations will permit the use of this “Tube Structure”. Please contact SKYTRON with your

special needs so that we may be able to guide you to other alternatives.

SKYTRON MOUNTING STRUCTURES

for Ceiling Mounted Equipment

Foreword


INTRODUCTION

This publication is meant to provide the information needed to design and build a mounting structure that

will provide the proper support for a SKYTRON Skyboom fixture as well as the guidance for supplying

the necessary services. The responsibilities and items supplied by both SKYTRON and the Customer

for pre-installation of the fixture will vary depending on the equipment and services that will be provided

on the Skyboom fixture. The mounting structure requirements however, are the same for all models. The

structure design is based on the heaviest Skyboom model with the greatest moment load. By using this

criteria, one structure design can be utilized to minimize design costs and provide adequate support for

future modifications. If applicable, specific Seismic Calculations can be provided from SKYTRON. The

Mounting Structure design should always be approved by a Structural Engineer. An inadequate Mount-

ing Structure may allow drifting and other performance problems for the fixture. Equipment warranty or

service charges due to an inadequate Mounting Structure are at the customer’s expense. SKYTRON does

not warrant or certify superstructure designs.

This publication is intended to address various areas and responsibilities of multiple individuals. It is im-

portant that this information is shared with:

- Architects and Structural Engineer - Electrical Engineer

- Medical Gas/Piping Engineer - Communication/Video/Data Engineer

- Project Manager(s)

SKYTRON Supplied Components

SKYTRON supplies the following items to assist in the design and construction of the mounting struc-

ture:

Customer approved room layout and Skyboom configuration drawings.

Skyboom mounting plate

Medical gas riser plate with appropriate medical gas connectors

Electrical junction box

Fixture mounting hardware

Pump Enclosure (if applicable)

CUSTOMER Supplied Components and Responsibilities

Mounting Structure - Architect and Structural Engineer

The Customer is responsible for the design and fabrication of the structure which connects the SKYTRON

mounting plate to the structural ceiling. The mounting plate must be perfectly level (±0.1°). The design and

fabrication must include the necessary bracing to prevent twisting or lateral motion and to allow no more

than two-tenths of a degree (0.2°) of rotation at the mounting plate when the specified load is applied.

Refer to Page 5 for recommended specifications.

An inadequate mounting structure can result in damage to the equipment. Equipment warranty charges

related to an inadequate structure design or installation are at the customers expense. The mounting

structure design specifications included in this publication depict a successful, proven design. The actual

building design, additional loading required by local building codes and various obstacles may exist that do

not allow this design system to be followed. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide the appropriate

alternate mounting structure. SKYTRON recommends that a Structural Engineer be consulted whenever

a design variation is needed.


Electrical Provisions - Electrical Engineer

Each Skyboom fixture is fabricated in accordance to the specifications required by the customer. The

customer is responsible for the appropriate electrical supply to the fixture. The Configuration drawings

supplied by SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of circuits required. The customer is responsible

for connections from facility supply to fixture, wall control and wiring installation for surgical lights and pump

motor connection if applicable.

Refer to Page 7 for Electrical Requirements.

Medical Gas Provisions - Medical Gas/Piping Engineer

Each Skyboom fixture is fabricated in accordance to the specifications required by the customer (to in-

clude the type of faceplate connectors to be provided on the fixture). The customer is responsible for the

appropriate medical gas supply and connection to the fixture. The Configuration drawings supplied by

SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of gas supply lines required.

Refer to Page 7 for Medical Gas Requirements.

Communications Provisions - Communication/Video/Data Engineer


customer is responsible for the appropriate communication cable routing to the fixture. The Configuration

drawings supplied by SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of cables required.

Testing

NOTE

A visual review of the mounting structure construction should be requested before the finished

ceiling is installed to detect possible interference potentials, and arrangements can be made

to conduct a load simulation using a Test Jig. This process is designed to simulate the fixture

load and is an effective means to determine where the structure may require improvement. It

is not a certification of the structure.

The customer is responsible for the testing and any necessary certification requirements for all system

utilities prior to the installation of the Skyboom fixture. The testing and certification must be in accordance

with all state, federal, local, NFPA and NEC codes and must include the following items:

STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS - Architect and Structural Engineer

MOUNTING STRUCTURE COMPONENTS

The fabrication of each mounting structure may be slightly different but they each require the same basic components

to ensure stability. Refer to the figure on page 4 for the relationship of these components.

Sway Bracing (by others)

Sway bracing is designed to rigidly affix the Mounting Plate to the structural ceiling. The primary purpose of Sway

Bracing is to eliminate sway, or lateral twisting and flexing of the mounting structure as it “reacts” to dynamic load

changes caused by moving the fixture radial arms. The sway bracing should be welded to the Mounting Plate and

extend away from the center of the mount. A minimum of four sway braces placed 90° apart and positioned at a

45° to 60° angle is recommended.

Minimum recommended material for sway bracing is 3” x 3” x 1/4” angle iron. It is recommended that in all ap-

plications that the sway bracing be fastened to the structural ceiling.

Structural Ceiling Plate (by others)

The Structural Ceiling Plate rigidly attaches the mount to the Structural Ceiling using structural anchors appropri-

ate for the ceiling construction. The Structural Ceiling Plate should be a minimum of, 1” ASTM A36 steel plate,17”

diameter with (6) 5/8” diameter holes for structural anchors and is fabricated by others.

Expansion Anchors

anchors must meet the following criteria:

1. Hydraulic Ram Method: The anchor should have no observable movement at the applicable test load. For wedge

and sleeve type anchors, a practical way to determine observable movement is that the washer under the nut be-

comes loose.

2. Torque Wrench Method (Wedge or Sleeve Type): The applicable test torque must be reached within one-half (1/2)

turn of the nut. Testing should occur no sooner than 24 hours after installation of anchors. If any anchor fails testing,

test all anchors until 20 consecutive anchors pass, then resume the initial testing frequency. Test equipment is to be

calibrated by an approved testing laboratory in accordance with standard recognized procedures.

Support Tube (by others)

The Support Tube required to attach the Mounting Plate to the Structural Ceiling Plate is ASTM 500 Grade B, 6”

diameter tube. Support Tube is to be welded to Structural Ceiling Plate and Mounting Plate. A minimum of 6 gussets

placed 60° apart should be welded to the support tube at the structural ceiling plate and the Mounting Plate.

Mounting Plate (Skytron supplied)

The 17.5” x 17.5” x 1” ASTM A36 steel Mounting Plate is a Skytron supplied item. The Support Tube and Sway

Bracing are welded to the Mounting Plate. The mounting plate contains the corresponding bolt pattern for attaching

the fixture and provides the mounting areas for the junction box and gas riser plates.

MOUNTING STRUCTURE DESIGN

Seismic structural applications may differ. Please contact your local SKYTRON distributor for specific calculations. The

Mounting Structure must be designed and fabricated to position the bottom of the SKYTRON Mounting Plate 10”

(-0”+1”) above the finished ceiling. This is a critical dimension in order to accommodate proper clearance required

for ceiling cover function. The mounting plate must be perfectly level (±0.1°) and allow no more than two-tenths of a

degree (0.2°) of rotation at the mounting plate when the specified load is applied. The Mounting Structure must

be tested for strength and stiffness prior to installation of the fixture. A Test Jig is available from SKYTRON that

includes all components and documentation required for performing an approved Mounting Structure test. Refer to

page 8 for testing procedures.

Please consult your SKYTRON representative during early stages of construction to facilitate this process.

The testing process is a required, documented function prior to closing of the finished ceiling.

Ceiling Requirements

A 24” x 24” access door must be mounted adjacent to the mounting structure for entry by service personnel

for service access.

SKYTRON provides a 24” diameter ceiling cover designed to cover a 20” diameter ceiling hole cutout.

Electrical Requirements - Electrical Engineer


Configuration drawings supplied by SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of circuits required.

SKYTRON provides all wiring and electrical materials for connection from fixture to junction box or pump

enclosure (if applicable). SKYTRON supplies either an electrical junction box to facilitate field wiring for

up to six circuits that is mounted on the mounting plate in the correct position OR if applicable, a hydraulic

pump enclosure/junction box (18”L x 6”W x 12”H) that is to be remote mounted within 24” of the mount-

ing structure (by contractor). The pump enclosure can be shipped with the Installation Kit upon request.

Typical wire type is 12AWG, 600V, XHHW-2. Each circuit requires a separate, properly circuit protected,

120 VAC, 60 Hz power supply line enclosed in rigid metal conduit. All electrical materials for connection

to SKYTRON supplied junction box or pump enclosure and installation labor for such materials to be pro-

vided by customer. All wiring and materials to be in accordance with federal, state and local codes. It is

the customers responsibility to meet conformity to NFPA and NEC standards with respect to the number

of receptacles provided in a patient care area. (Page 4 - Drawing Package)

Medical Gas Requirements - Medical Gas/Piping Engineer

NOTES: Medical gas riser plates comply with NFPA 99-2005 Edition

Cleanliness of gas outlets must be maintained through installation.

Purge gas lines and test at least 24 hrs. prior to installation.

Test results must be made available to SKYTRON for verification & comparison.

Each Skyboom fixture is fabricated in accordance to the specifications required by the customer. The Con-

figuration drawings supplied by SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of gas supply lines required.

D.I.S.S. connection medical grade hoses connect the fixture to the Riser Plate connectors. The customer

is responsible to deliver the appropriate medical gas from the facility supply to the Riser Plate connectors

and for the design of a medical gas system with adequate flow capacity capable of compensating for the

accumulative flow restrictions associated with conventional construction methods i.e. flex gas hoses.

SKYTRON provides medical gas riser plate(s) and the appropriate connectors for attachment to the

Mounting Plate. The Riser Plate attaches to the Mounting Plate and will accommodate up to 12 gas con-

nectors. The connectors are D.I.S.S. type medical gas connectors with single check valves and provide

a 1/2” copper tube for attachment to facility supply lines. Caps are provided with Vacuum & WAGD gas

connectors to facilitate testing procedures.

All connection and testing of Medical Gas Piping to be performed in accordance with NFPA 99-2005

Edition-5.1.6 requirements.

- Evacuation lines and fittings rated at 70-75 l/min (2.47-2.64scfm) at user connection point.

- Vacuum lines (WAGD) and fittings rated at 85 l/min (3 scfm), based on 115 l/min facility supply

- Nitrogen system requires Nitrogen supplied directly from facility supply at 185 psi minimum to 200 psi

maximum (if applicable). Avoid designs which feature multiple in-line Nitrogen control systems in order to

avoid loss of flow capability. (Page 3 - Drawing Package)

Recomended Gas Riser Placement - When mount is in center of room, Riser Plate should face head

end of room, when mount is near walls, Riser Plate should be adjacent to wall. If more than one Riser

Plate is required they should be placed next to each other.

Communications Requirements - Communication/Video/Data Engineer


Configuration drawings supplied by SKYTRON will indicate the type and quantity of cables required. The

customer is responsible for the appropriate communication cable routing to the fixture. Special arrange-

ments can be coordinated for custom cable sets to be installed at the time of installation. Contact your

SKYTRON representative. (Page 5 - Drawing Package)

ADDITIONAL SKYTRON SUPPLIED ITEMS

In addition to the installation kit as outlined on page 3, SKYTRON provides the following items:

(6) 1-1/4” x 10” Threaded Rods, (24) 1-1/4” Hex Nuts, Pump Enclosure (if applicable)


TESTING - MOUNTING STRUCTURE

Each mounting structure must be tested by a SKYTRON representative to verify that there is no more

than two-tenths of a degree of rotational movement at the mounting plate prior to installing a fixture. A

Mounting Structure Test Jig is available from SKYTRON to facilitate this process. The Mounting Structure

Test Jig is a fixture which simulates the weights and moment loads created by the SKYTRON fixture. It

consists of a Hub Assembly, an Upper and Lower Radial Arm, a Chain Fall, Weight Support Tube and six

100lbs. weights (refer to illustration on page 9).

The Drawing Package and the Test Jig Instructions are required to perform an acurate test.

The Test Jig Instructions include the Load Simulator Weight Chart, the Test Jig Report Form and complete

instructions for performing the test.
