Atlas Pendant e-Brake: improving the clinical workspace

Atlas Pendants offer ‘complete solutions’, designed for each application by Brandon Medical

The company said: “It is recognised that each facility is different – both in terms of clinical requirements and building design. Each pendant is designed to meet the needs of the individual client.” 

Atlas Pendants are maintenance-free; ‘unreliable’ pneumatic brakes, reliant on compressed air connection, are no longer needed. “Pneumatic brakes often fail, and the high pressure leaking bladders create a high-pitched squealing noise, causing inevitable disruption in the clinical workspace,” Brandon explained. “The new and improved electromagnetic e-Brake keeps the pendant safely in position, while reducing the overhead infrastructure; the system can contain the e-Brake much more comfortably than cumbersome pneumatic brakes, and eradicates the need for the complicated process of feeding medical air through the arms of the pendant.” 

Atlas Pendants include the intuitive ‘Lightguide’ pendant e-Brake indication system. This uses illuminated LED coloured markers to give both an indication of e-Brake release, and the point of rotation. Brandon said: “The E-brake is incredibly reliable, and guarantees low future maintenance costs; the new Atlas Pendants system improves the entire clinical operation.” 

Given that when specifying a bespoke Atlas Pendants system, it may be difficult to predict the services required in the future, the system is ‘completely future-proof’. Brandon explained: “The Atlas Pendants are the only custom, re-configurable pendants where the intensivists and surgeons can reconfigure the services provided by the pendant as their equipment needs change.”
