Re: Nurse Call

["Robert L Bass" <robertlbass@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob,

Aiphone makes a system called NEM-20/C that can handle this client's needs.
The master station can handle up to 20 patient locations.  Patient room
options include pull cords for bathrooms, corded and flush mounted panic
buttons, etc.  Room stations can be wall, desk or ceiling mounted.

I've installed numerous Aiphone systems for years with very few problems.
Their hardware seems to last longer than most others.  Prices are good,
though not cheap.

I sell Aiphone direct online.  Here's a link to their page on the system:

Note: Aiphone's page doesn't mention the 20 station unit though it describes
the various options.  Here's a breakdown of the components required for a
typical 20-station nurse call system.  There's an HTML table.  If it doesn't
show up correctly on your browser let me know and I'll email you the
component list.

      2 NEM-20/C 20 CALL MASTER WITH LAMP MEMORY AND ALL CALL Specifications
      Instructions
      4 NEW-5 DUAL MASTER ADAPTOR (1 FOR EVERY 5 STATIONS) Instructions
      20 NB-L CEILING MOUNT SUB Specifications
      Instructions
      20 NBY-1A RECEPTACLE FOR NBR-8A Instructions
      20 NBR-8A HANDHELD CALL BUTTON Instructions
      2 PS-2410A 24V DC, 1A POWER SUPPLY (110 VAC) Specifications

      1 PS-1225UL 12V DC, 2.5A POWER SUPPLY (110 VAC) USED WITH NEW-5
Instructions



Note also that Aiphone's website still makes a big deal about using Aiphone
wire.  Disregard that since they no longer sell their own wire.  ATW was
private labelling it for them until they went belly up last year.
