 Figure 1-1 Enterprise™ 3000 bed with safety sides

The power driven functions of height, backrest angle, tilt angle and leg
elevation are operated by simple push button controls. There are separate
handsets for the patient and carer; the carer’s handset also allows control of
tilt angle (Trendelenburg).
The bed has an attendant control panel (ACP) from which the power driven
functions can be individually disabled. Operation of the bed by the patient
is thus at the discretion of the carer.
The electrical actuators consist of a screw and nut assembly driven by a
24V d.c. motor and gearbox. Power for the actuators is derived from an a.c.
power supply. In the event of mains power being unavailable, a 24V
backup battery allows the bed to be used for short periods of time. The
power supply, control box and backup battery on mounted on a bracket
below the head end cross member.

2 OPERATIONAL MAINTENANCE
2.1 General

The equipment has been designed to be virtually maintenance-free between

service intervals. The degree of periodic cleaning and maintenance
necessary will be determined by use and condition.
Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. If found take appropriate
remedial action.

WARNING
Disconnect the bed from the mains power supply before carrying
out cleaning procedures.

2.2 Cleaning
Wearing suitable protective clothing, clean all surfaces with a disposable
cloth dampened with hand hot water and a neutral detergent.
Start by cleaning the upper sections of the bed and work along all
horizontal surfaces. Work methodically towards the lower sections of the
bed and clean the wheels last. Take extra care to clean areas that may trap
dust or dirt.
Wipe down using clean water and dry with disposable paper towels.
Allow the cleaned parts to dry before replacing the mattress.

2.3 Disinfecting

After cleaning the bed as described above, wipe all surfaces with sodium
dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) at a concentration of 1,000 parts per million
(0.1%) of available chlorine.
In the case of pooling body fluids, e.g. blood, the concentration of NaDCC
should be increased to 10,000 parts per million (1%) of available chlorine.

Caution
Do not use abrasive compounds or pads.
Do not use phenol-based disinfectant solutions.

2-1 746-538-2

3 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
The following preventive maintenance checks and procedures should be
carried out every 12 months.
All service and repair activities must only be carried out by properly
qualified and trained persons approved by ArjoHuntleigh.
Disposal of product and components should be compliant with local
regulations.

WARNING
Before starting any maintenance activity, disconnect the bed
from the electrical power supply.
If the backup battery is fitted, the bed will still operate when the
handset buttons are pressed unless the function has been
disabled on the ACP.
Avoid skin contact with lubricants. Gloves and protective
clothing should be worn when carrying out maintenance work.

3.1 General
Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. Make sure that all nuts, bolts
and other fastenings are secure and not missing.
Examine all flexible cables for cuts, abrasions, kinks or other deterioration.
Check the mains plug and cable for damage. If the mains plug or cable is
damaged, they must be replaced as a complete assembly. Under no
circumstances should the integral moulded plug be replaced with a
rewireable plug.

3.2 Castors and Brakes

Check the brakes for efficient operation.

Check that the steering lock operates effectively.
Poor braking or steering performance indicates that one or more castors
require adjustment or replacement.

3.3 Backup Battery

If, when the bed is operated using the batteries a beeping sound is heard,
this indicates a low charge condition. The bed should be reconnected to the

3-1 746-538-2
07/08
mains power supply for a minimum of 24 hours, in order to recharge the
batteries.
Every six months, the condition of the batteries should be checked using
the following procedure:
1. Ensure that the bed has been connected to the mains power supply
for 24 hours.
2. Disconnect the bed from the mains power supply.
3. Apply a load of 80kg to the mattress platform.
4. Raise and lower the mattress platform, from minimum to
maximum height, three times.
5. If the bed does not operate satisfactorily in step 4, perform steps 1
to 4 again.
If the bed again fails to operate satisfactorily, the batteries are not holding
sufficient charge and should be replaced. Refer to Chapter 6, Servicing
Instructions.

6.24 Restoration of Paintwork

Damage to the paint finish on the frame or other components can be

repaired by brush application of cellulose-based paint obtainable from
specialist paint suppliers or local distributors.
The standard finish colour for this product is silver (Beckers Ikea No.1).

WARNING
Always use painting materials as directed by the manufacturer
and obey the safety instructions.

6.24.1 Procedure

a) Clean and degrease the damaged area by wiping with a lint free cloth
moistened with a suitable volatile solvent, e.g., methylated spirits.
b) Make sure there are no loose chips of paint and use fine silicon carbide
abrasive paper to abrade the area where paint is to be applied and blend
to a smooth surface. Clean and degrease the area again.
c) Use a soft bristle brush and apply the primer paint to the damaged area.
Allow to dry and apply the colour finish paint. Use both in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Portable and mobile RF communication s
equipment should be used no closer to any part
of the ENTERPRISE™3000, including cables,
than the recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation applicable to the
frequency of the transmitter.

Where P is the maximum output power rating of

the transmitter in watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation in metres (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as

determined by an electromagnetic site survey,a
should be less than the compliance level in each

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following symbol:

NOTE 1 At 80MHz and 800MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the
ENTERPRISE® 3000 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the ENTERPRISE® 3000
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed additional measures
may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the ENTERPRISE® 3000.

b Over the frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.
