Abstract

Surge, as a major cause of safety in the use of biomedical equipment, increases the frequency of biomedical equipment failures, reduces service life and damages medical equipment. The core technology of surge protection includes the first, second and third level of protection, with each level working together at different levels to achieve efficient surge suppression. In addition, in conjunction with the application needs of biomedical equipment, this paper discusses the specific applications of surge protectors, including internal equipment protection measures such as uninterruptible power supplies and varistors as well as the design and installation of external surge protectors. Effective surge protection not only prevents equipment damage, but also improves system reliability and extends equipment life. In order to further optimize the effectiveness of surge protection, this paper proposes a multilevel protection scheme, the optimal choice of grounding materials, and suggestions for improving the lightning and surge protection system. Through the reasonable surge protection strategy, can significantly improve the stability and safety of biomedical equipment, for the medical system to provide more reliable operation guarantee.
