ATLANTA, June 12, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Flo Healthcare, a leading provider of wireless mobile workstations, today introduced its enhanced power supply, the Flo PowerPro N500e.
Using Flo Healthcare's proven Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) technology, the new power supply's increased output is perfect for the intensive wireless applications that are becoming standard in today's hospitals.
The highly reliable Flo PowerPro N500e deep discharge battery can be recharged to 95% capacity in 3.5 hours, which provides a run time to charge time ratio of 3:1. Using Nickel Metal Hydride battery technology, the N500e offers 500 Watt-hours of battery capacity and 120 Watts of output power. The PowerPro system allows for increases in battery capacity up to 750 Watt-hours for maximum run time applications.
The PowerPro N500e's modular design, removable battery tray, and battery connect technology allow for easy access and service of the batteries, and the Flo Remote Battery Status indicator allows the user to keep close tabs on the power level. The system also includes Flo BatteryPro Management Software which can be used with PC or Thin Client devices to provide users with accurate run time information and low level alarms and hibernate functions to protect users from the loss of valuable clinical data.
"We at Flo Healthcare have maintained our leadership position in the wireless mobile workstation industry through our continued innovation," said Keith Washington, Flo Healthcare General Manager. "Our batteries always have offered the longest run time and battery life on the market, and the new PowerPro N500e is a giant leap forward in keeping clinicians connected to all aspects of patient care."
Flo Healthcare's complete line of high-performance, low-maintenance power supplies for its fully integrated wireless mobile workstations allows IT and clinicians to connect with patients and patient information, spend more time with patients, deliver better care, improve data accuracy, and increase patient safety.
