What Can Be Done to Protect Histology Equipment from Power Surges?
There are several strategies that can be employed to protect sensitive histology equipment from power surges:
Surge Protectors: Use high-quality surge protectors for all electronic devices. Ensure they are rated for the specific equipment being used. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS): A UPS can provide temporary power during an outage and protect against surges. Regular Maintenance: Ensure that all electrical wiring and equipment are regularly inspected and maintained to prevent malfunctions. Environmental Controls: Maintain stable environmental conditions to prevent sudden power demands from HVAC systems. Professional Assessment: Periodically have a professional electrical assessment to identify and mitigate potential sources of power surges.
