Uninterruptible Power Supply• Problems
– Sensitive imaging equipment losing information• CAT Scan
• Radiology
• Radio/Fluoroscopy
– High costs of slight power disturbances• Up to $10,000 per procedure
• Solution– Uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
• Battery backup to ride through outtages
• Supplies a constant and smooth supply of electricity

Uninterruptible Power Supply• Impact on HVAC
– Generates 98,500 BTU/hour
– Cooling Load• Increase of 8 tons of cooling
• Minimal impact on system of (5) 500-ton chillers
– Electrical Room• Increased ventilation capacity required
• Increase of 4500 cfm
![Page 20: Howard County General Hospital Casey Schardt Lighting/Electrical Option Columbia, Maryland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f2b5503460f94c45717/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Economic Analysis: Lighting• Existing downlight fixtures are inefficient
– 434 downlights with 2 horizontal 26-watt lamps are 37.1 % efficient
– Similar downlights with one vertical 26-watt lamp are 74.2% efficient
• Using efficient downlights reduces wattage
• Reduces amount of maintenance
![Page 21: Howard County General Hospital Casey Schardt Lighting/Electrical Option Columbia, Maryland](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f2b5503460f94c45717/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Economic Analysis: Lighting• Cost Savings with more efficient downlights
–Initial Savings: $15,609•Costs of lamps and ballasts
•Fixture cost, and labor are negligible
–Annual Savings: $8,863 per year•Energy usage savings
•Energy demand savings
•Lamp and ballast replacement savings
•Reduced cooling loads
•Payback period–Immediate (lower initial and operating costs)

Conclusions• Lighting Design
– Design criteria are met– Efficient design
• Electrical Design– UPS improves reliability– Design accounts for impacts on other systems
• Economic Analysis– Savings on both initial and operating costs– More energy efficient– More environmentally friendly
