Bed head units guide: choosing the right model
A bed head unit (BHU) brings medical gas outlets, power sockets, data and nurse call connections and lighting together in one aluminium body behind the bed. It defines both how a patient room works and how it looks. Reanimed makes a wide family of bed head units for every segment, including DERİN, DERİN-S, SAHRA, CAT, ARYA, AKRİLİK, UMUT and LINE.
What does the number of channels mean?
Bed head units can have one, two or three channels, which separate gas, power and low-voltage (data, nurse call) services. Single-channel compact models (DERİN, ARYA) suit standard patient rooms; ICUs and step-down units need more outlets and accessories, so two- or three-channel models (DERİN-S, SAHRA, CAT) are preferred.
Choosing by room type
- Standard patient room: DERİN, ARYA – compact, light, quick to install.
- Multi-purpose rooms and wards: DERİN-S, SAHRA, CAT – one, two or three channels and an accessory rail.
- VIP and premium rooms: AKRİLİK – acrylic surface, custom colours, direct and indirect LED lighting.
- Paediatric wards: UMUT – colourful, with graphics and a reassuring design.
- Lighting only: LINE – even, comfortable light.
Lighting and patient comfort
Indirect light reflects off the ceiling and fills the room with soft light; direct light is used for reading and examination. Colour and finish options let the unit blend with the interior design.
Compatible outlets and standards
Units take DIN, BS or NF medical gas outlets. Gas outlets follow EN ISO 9170-1 and electrical components are designed to EN 60601-1 and EN 60601-1-2.
