Product Description
Component - Switching Power Supply
Model Differences
The models differ in output ratings which requires different turns and wire gauge in transformer T200 and
secondary circuitry component values to accommodate the rated output.
Model number nomenclature explains construction as follows:
MENT1150AWWXXYZ; Where A is an Alpha Character that represents generational differences, WW is a
Numeric indicator of output voltage, XX is a 2 digit Numeric indicator of external connectors, Y is an alpha
character that represents Input Options, and Z is a numeric indicator where 00 is the standard configuration
and 01-99 are custom modifications that may or may not be related to Safety.
Where A signifies generational differences which may have impact on safety the specific letter will be
documented in this Report.

Engineering Conditions of Acceptability
For use only in or with complete equipment where the acceptability of the combination is determined by
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. When installed in an end-product, consideration must be given to the
following:
This component has been judged on the basis of the required spacings in the First Edition of the
Standards for Medical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements for Safety, UL60601-1 and CSA
22.2 No. 601.1, which covers the end use product for which the component is designed. , , 2. The
component shall be installed in compliance with the enclosure, mounting, spacings, casualty
markings and segregation requirements of the end-use application. , , 3. Consideration should be
given to measuring the temperature on power electronic components and transformer windings when
the power supply is installed in the end-use equipment. , , 4. The input/output connectors are not
acceptable for field connection, they are only intended for connection to mating connectors of internal
wiring inside the end-use machine. The output circuits have not been evaluated for direct patient
connection (Type B, BF or CF). , , 5. The temperature test was performed in a raised ambient of 40
°C. , , 6. Leakage Current test should be repeated in the end-product application. , , 7. The Power
Transformers (T200) and Inductor L102 comply with Class B (130°C) limits. , , 8. This power supply
has been evaluated as Class I, continuous operation, ordinary equipment and has not been
evaluated for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
, , 9. The Class I model power supply was evaluated as Reinforced insulation between primary and
secondary; basic insulation between primary to ground/heatsink. In addition, the power supply was
evaluated with either the output + or - connected to ground/heatsink. , 10. The component is
provided with a plastic enclosure (V-0) that is suitable for fire and shock hazards. , 11. The output
has been evaluated and tested for operator accessible part. Under normal and single fault
conditions, the outputs do not exceed 25 V ac or 60 V dc. , 12. The product was evaluated as a desk
top and/or portable use only. Additional evaluation may be required as part of end product
investigation to insure compliance of the product as mobile device. , 13. Installation instructions and
end product markings are the responsibility of the end-use product manufacturer. , 14. The following
statement shall be provided for Class I models in the end product. "To ensure that grounding
reliability is achieved, the power supply shall be connected to receptacle marked 'Hospital Only' or
'Hospital Grade'. The marking can be provided on the power supply, the end product, or on the
power supply cord set. , 15. Capability of the equipment to withstanding cleaning, sterilization or
disinfection without deterioration has not been evaluated. Additional evaluation may be required as
