Indications for Use
Advisory
Harmony Nexus Equipment Management System (EMS) is inteded
for use in hospital facilities where there is a need for ready access to
medical gases, electrical power and audio/visual data services. The
EMS organizes surgical equipment such as endoscopy equipment,
laparoscopic equipment, cautery devices, insufflators, etc. Harmony
Nexus EMS units help hospitals to improve efficiency and safety, and
to maximize total room workflow by ergonomically centralizing all
surgical support equipment:
•As individual unit or in combination with the ceiling supply units
of the Harmony Nexus Equipment Management System
•For communicating and exchanging data, e.g., telephone,
nurse’s call button or computer networking
•For the ergonomic positioning of medical equipment during use
•For supplying medical equipment with electrical power and
medical gases
•To provide additional instrument trays, shelves and supports
The intended user for this equipment includes OR, ER/Trauma
Room, Ambulatory Surgery Center and ICU staff.
A listing of the safety precautions to be observed when installing and
testing this equipment can be found in SPRECAUTIONS of these instructions. Do not begin installing this
equipment until you have become familiar with this information.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following Safety Precautions must be observed when operating or servicing the Harmony Nexus™ Equipment
Management System. WARNING indicates the potential for personal injury and CAUTION indicates the potential
for damage to equipment. For emphasis, certain Safety Precautions are repeated throughout the manual. It is
important to review ALL Safety Precautions before operating or servicing the unit.
Strictly following these Safety Precautions enhances the Customer’s ability to safely and effectively utilize the unit
and helps avoid improper maintenance methods which may damage the unit or render it unsafe. It is important to
understand that these Safety Precautions are not exhaustive; Customers are encouraged to develop their own
safety policies and procedures to enhance and complement these Safety Precautions.
WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARD:
The ceiling mount system must not be installed where flammable gases or anesthesia are or will be
used. This equipment is not designed for use in a hazardous location as defined in National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) Flammable Anesthetics Code.
WARNING – PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD:
1
After shipping frame and skid have been dismantled, unit can rotate freely. Do not lean against and/or
use mounted unit for support.
Ensure ceiling gas supply lines are depressurized before removing protecti ve caps.
Connecting electrical equipment to the multiple socket outlet (MSO) effectively leads to creating a
medical electrical (ME) system, and the result can be a reduced level of safety.
WARNING – ELECTRIC SHOCK AND BURN HAZARD:
Disconnect all utilities to the unit before installation. Do not install unless all utilities have been properly
locked out. Always follow OSHA lockout-tagout and electrical safety related work practice standards.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected to a supply mains protective
earth.
WARNING – PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD:
Repairs and adjustments to this equipment should be made only by fully qualified service personnel.
Maintenance performed by inexperienced, unqualified personnel or installation of unauthorized parts
could cause personal injury, invalidate the warranty or result in costly damage. Contact STERIS Service
Engineering representative regarding service options.

Always lift the assembly of the Equipment Management System (EMS) where indicated by the "Lift Here"
label applied to the packaging. Failure to lift the assembly where indicated could cause the unit to fall
from the forks, causing equip ment damage or personal injury.
Verify air source supplying air to the pneumatic brake system. Lockout/tagout the air source for the
particular EMS unit be fore servicing.
Do not exceed maximum shelf load. Refer to Table 7-1.
The unit and shipping materials weigh approximately 1,000 lb (454 kg). To ensure safety, adequately
rated equipment must be used to move or lift unit.

around (360°) will twist and kink gas lines and electrical wires located inside the column.
Care should be taken not to damage bolts when lifting main unit.
Be careful not to drop any hardware into the mouth of the distance tube.
Never set up supply column without the packaging protection.
•Lifting device (e.g., Genie® Lift™1) with minimum 600 lb (272 kg)
capacity. If Equipment Management System (EMS) unit is
greater than 600 lb (272 kg), then two lifting devices are
required.
