LINAK® now releases a 5-channel control box with two OpenBus™ ports. This allows customers to add an extra feature/accessory to their application, without adding a modular junction box (MJB).

As bed application systems in healthcare become more and more intelligent, adding more comfort-improving features and more safety-enhancing functions become possible. Some goes fully digital with OpenBus™-driven solutions, giving them a wealth of value-adding options. Some, however, only have a need for a few of these many options. Here more adaptive products are required.

Control box CO53 is a bit of both worlds

Having five fully functional channels, the CO53 is for applications where several parts needs to be able to move. To enable OEMs to equip applications with extra features, two OpenBus™ ports have been added. This allows you to have either two intelligent hand controls or to have one hand control and, for example, an attendant control, such as the ACC or ACO. You can also add an Under Bed Light or another of the many LINAK® accessories. The choice is yours.

Prevent unintended movement and have complex movement

OpenBus™ set-ups enable you to create tailormade movement patterns for your healthcare bed. At the same time, the way LINAK® OpenBus™ control boxes are designed, prevents unintended movement by the actuators in the system. This helps enhance safety in and around the bed and increases comfort for the patient using it.

Compact design and excellent cable management

As with all LINAK® control boxes you get multiple mounting options with the CO53. It uses the same brackets and is as easy to mount, install, and use as every other LINAK box. CO53 comes with a 190 W power supply and is set up for 220 V. However, cable management as easy and straight-forward as always. I
