Description
The S8 floor stand comprises the articulated arm, the motorized stand
lifting column and the stand base. The articulated arm comprises the car-
rier arm and a suspension arm.
The carrier arm contains the control panel with all electrical supply sys-
tems required for the control of a motorized surgical microscope. You can
control the motorized functions via a foot control panel or hand control
panel.
The suspension arm permits almost effortless positioning of the surgical
microscope. The spring force of the suspension arm can be varied in a
range from 8 to 20 kg, permitting reliable balancing of the microscope
even with heavy accessory equipment. The downward movement of the
suspension arm can be limited as required.
The height of the stand column can be set via a motorized function. The
lifting column allows the continuous positioning of the surgical microscope
within a lifting range of 530 mm to set the optimum viewing height of the
microscope or to move downwards into the transport position. A maneu-
vering handle is provided on the stand column. This handle is used to
move the stand and to attach the foot control panel. The stand column is
provided on its left and right with cable supports for winding up cables be-
fore the unit is relocated. Four steerable casters on the stand base permit
easy positioning near the operating table. The stand base has been de-
signed in such a way that high stability is ensured even with unfavorable
loading of the stand. A locking pedal permits the S floor stand to be locked
in position quickly and reliably.
Note:
As the stand is very easy to maneuver, there is a tendency to underesti-
mate its considerable weight. Therefore, move the stand slowly and care-
fully!
