[Histonet] Shandon Excelsior Tissue Processor

[Marcum, Pamela A]

Since we have some power issues here and 4 Excelsiors (no problems with them on  this issue) we have UPS units on all of our computerized equipment.  We did this due to issues in other areas of the lab and decided it was safer than taking a chance and being down.  We bought Powervar and I think the suggested units were around $2,000 to $3,000 each with one unit serving two processors.  Other sites in Little Rock who have some of the same power issues have had problems.

Does any one having problems with the Excelsior Tissue Processor power board repeatedly after power outage?  This has happened to me three times in the last five years even though it has backup batteries.
