Modern healthcare is becoming more connected every day. From bedside monitors to enterprise data platforms, hospitals and integrated delivery networks (IDNs) are striving to unify patient information across sites, specialties, and systems. This shift promises faster decision-making, improved patient outcomes, and stronger operational efficiency.
But there’s one critical factor often missing from the conversation — the quality and reliability of the power behind it all.
Continuous patient monitoring, advanced analytics, and data-driven care all depend on uninterrupted, stable power. Without it, even the most sophisticated monitoring and communication systems can fail to deliver when they’re needed most. That’s where uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems — and a broader commitment to power quality — play a vital role.
Reliable power: the silent enabler of connected care
Every second, modern monitoring systems generate thousands of data points. These insights help clinicians detect subtle changes in patient condition and allow administrators to analyze performance across the network. But this continuous flow of data depends entirely on clean, reliable power.
Voltage fluctuations, outages, or transients can disrupt monitoring connections, corrupt data, and compromise patient safety. A properly designed UPS system ensures that monitoring devices, network equipment, and data servers remain online — even during power interruptions — so care continuity never stops.
Six ways UPS systems empower unified healthcare monitoring
1. Ensure continuous data flow
In a unified network, even brief power disturbances can cause data gaps or system reboots. UPS systems keep monitors, routers, and storage devices running smoothly, maintaining a complete and accurate record of patient information across care settings.
2. Protect sensitive medical equipment
Patient monitors, imaging systems, and central servers are sensitive to voltage sags and surges. UPS units provide clean, regulated power that shields these assets from damage and prevents costly downtime or recalibration.
3. Support seamless patient transitions
When patients move between departments or facilities, uninterrupted power ensures monitoring continuity. UPS-backed systems preserve connectivity so clinicians have full visibility into a patient’s history and real-time status at every handoff.
4. Safeguard centralized monitoring and data storage
Hospitals increasingly rely on centralized monitoring stations and enterprise data centers. UPS systems bridge the gap during outages or generator startup, ensuring critical systems stay powered while preventing data loss or network disconnection.
5. Enable telehealth and remote monitoring reliability
As virtual care expands, healthcare networks depend on stable power not just at the bedside but across distributed locations. UPS protection ensures connectivity for telehealth platforms, remote monitoring hubs, and communication networks alike.
6. Build a foundation for smarter, more resilient infrastructure
Unified patient monitoring is just the beginning. As healthcare embraces AI-driven analytics and predictive diagnostics, reliable power becomes even more essential. UPS systems provide the stable electrical backbone these future-ready technologies require to thrive.
The connection between power quality and patient care
Power quality is more than an engineering issue — it’s a patient care issue. When every decision depends on accurate, continuous data, downtime is not an option. A robust UPS infrastructure helps healthcare organizations move confidently toward digital transformation, ensuring that their monitoring networks are as resilient as the clinicians they support.
Powering the connected hospital of tomorrow
As health systems pursue the promise of unified monitoring, analytics, and enterprise integration, the conversation must start with reliability. At Staco, we believe power quality is the foundation of healthcare connectivity. Our advanced UPS and voltage regulation solutions ensure that mission-critical systems remain stable, efficient, and ready — no matter what challenges arise.
Because in modern healthcare, data saves lives — but only when the power stays on.
Let's talk. We're happy to share what we've seen in Latin America and how hospitals are addressing it.
La atención médica moderna está cada día más conectada. Desde monitores de cabecera hasta plataformas de datos empresariales, los hospitales y las redes integradas de prestación de servicios (IDN) se esfuerzan por unificar la información de los pacientes en todos los centros, especialidades y sistemas. Este cambio promete una toma de decisiones más rápida, mejores resultados para los pacientes y una mayor eficiencia operativa.
Pero hay un factor crucial que a menudo se pasa por alto: la calidad y la fiabilidad de la energía que lo sustenta.
El monitoreo continuo de los pacientes, la analítica avanzada y la atención basada en datos dependen de una energía ininterrumpida y estable. Sin ella, incluso los sistemas de monitoreo y comunicación más sofisticados pueden fallar cuando más se necesitan. Es aquí donde los sistemas de alimentación ininterrumpida (UPS) y un compromiso más amplio con la calidad de la energía desempeñan un papel fundamental.
Energía fiable: el motor silencioso de la atención conectada
Cada segundo, los sistemas de monitoreo modernos generan miles de puntos de datos. Esta información ayuda a los profesionales sanitarios a detectar cambios sutiles en el estado del paciente y permite a los administradores analizar el rendimiento de toda la red. Pero este flujo continuo de datos depende completamente de una energía limpia y fiable.
Las fluctuaciones de voltaje, los cortes de suministro eléctrico o los transitorios pueden interrumpir las conexiones de monitoreo, corromper los datos y comprometer la seguridad del paciente. Un sistema UPS correctamente diseñado garantiza que los dispositivos de monitoreo, los equipos de red y los servidores de datos permanezcan en línea, incluso durante interrupciones del suministro eléctrico, para que la continuidad de la atención médica sea constante.
Seis maneras en que los sistemas UPS facilitan el monitoreo unificado de la atención médica
1. Garantizar un flujo de datos continuo
En una red unificada, incluso breves interrupciones del suministro eléctrico pueden causar interrupciones de datos o reinicios del sistema. Los sistemas UPS mantienen el correcto funcionamiento de los monitores, enrutadores y dispositivos de almacenamiento, manteniendo un registro completo y preciso de la información del paciente en todos los centros de atención.
2. Proteger los equipos médicos sensibles
Los monitores de pacientes, los sistemas de imágenes y los servidores centrales son sensibles a las caídas y sobretensiones de voltaje. Las unidades UPS proporcionan energía limpia y regulada que protege estos activos de daños y evita costosos tiempos de inactividad o recalibraciones.
3. Facilitar la transición fluida de pacientes
Cuando los pacientes se trasladan entre departamentos o instalaciones, la energía ininterrumpida garantiza la continuidad del monitoreo. Los sistemas respaldados por UPS preservan la conectividad para que los profesionales clínicos tengan visibilidad completa del historial del paciente y su estado en tiempo real en cada transferencia.
4. Proteja el monitoreo centralizado y el almacenamiento de datos
Los hospitales dependen cada vez más de estaciones de monitorización centralizadas y centros de datos empresariales. Los sistemas UPS cubren las necesidades durante cortes de suministro o arranques de generadores, garantizando la alimentación de los sistemas críticos y evitando la pérdida de datos o la desconexión de la red.
5. Habilite la confiabilidad de la telesalud y el monitoreo remoto
A medida que la atención virtual se expande, las redes de atención médica dependen de un suministro eléctrico estable no solo en la cabecera del paciente, sino también en ubicaciones distribuidas. La protección mediante UPS garantiza la conectividad tanto para plataformas de telesalud como para centros de monitoreo remoto y redes de comunicación.
6. Construya las bases para una infraestructura más inteligente y resiliente
El monitoreo unificado de pacientes es solo el comienzo. A medida que el sector sanitario adopta el analisis basado en IA y el diagnóstico predictivo, la alimentación confiable se vuelve aún más esencial. Los sistemas UPS proporcionan la red eléctrica estable que estas tecnologías preparadas para el futuro necesitan para prosperar.
La conexión entre la calidad de la energía y la atención al paciente
La calidad de la energía es más que un problema de ingeniería: es un problema de atención al paciente. Cuando cada decisión depende de datos precisos y continuos, el tiempo de inactividad no es una opción. Una infraestructura robusta de UPS ayuda a las organizaciones de atención médica a avanzar con confianza hacia la transformación digital, garantizando que sus redes de monitoreo sean tan resilientes como el personal médico al que apoyan.
Impulsando el hospital conectado del futuro
A medida que los sistemas de salud persiguen la promesa de monitoreo unificado, análisis e integración empresarial, la conversación debe comenzar con la confiabilidad. En Staco Energy , creemos que la calidad de la energía es la base de la conectividad en el cuidado de la salud. Nuestras avanzadas soluciones de UPS y regulación de voltaje garantizan que los sistemas críticos se mantengan estables, eficientes y listos, sin importar los desafíos que surjan.
porque en la atención sanitaria moderna, los datos salvan vidas, pero sólo cuando hay suministro eléctrico.
Hablemos. Nos complace compartir lo que hemos visto en Latinoamérica y cómo los hospitales lo están solucionando.
Cuando pensamos en la calidad de una imagen médica (ya sea una resonancia magnética, una tomografía computarizada o una radiografía), solemos centrarnos en el equipo. Pero hay un factor fundamental que influye en la nitidez de la imagen: la energía eléctrica.
En concreto, una energía eléctrica limpia y estable.
La mayoría de los sistemas de imagen son extremadamente sensibles. Una pequeña fluctuación o interrupción de la tensión, a veces imperceptible, puede provocar imágenes borrosas, reinicios del equipo o fallos en las exploraciones. En regiones como Latinoamérica, donde las fluctuaciones de energía son comunes, esto no es solo una posibilidad teórica.
Ocurre a diario.
Muchas clínicas utilizan generadores o protectores de sobretensión para las interrupciones. Pero estos no solucionan la inestabilidad de la energía que, de forma silenciosa, puede deteriorar el equipo de imagen o interrumpir las exploraciones.
Por eso, cada vez más equipos de radiología están considerando los sistemas de alimentación ininterrumpida (UPS), no solo como respaldo, sino como garantía de fiabilidad y calidad en las exploraciones.
Un UPS de doble conversión disenado para estas aplicaciones ayuda a:
Si su equipo ha perdido alguna exploración o ha tenido que reiniciar el equipo durante una sesión con el paciente, quizá sea el momento de analizar la calidad de la energía que alimenta sus equipos de imagen.
¿Le preocupa que los problemas de energía puedan afectar la calidad de sus imágenes?
Hablemos. Estaremos encantados de compartir nuestra experiencia en Latinoamérica y las soluciones que implementan los hospitales.
When we think about the quality of a medical image—whether it’s an MRI, CT, or X-ray—we usually focus on the equipment. But there’s something more basic that plays a big role in image clarity: power.
Specifically, clean, stable power.
Most imaging systems are incredibly sensitive. A brief voltage dip, surge, or power interruption—sometimes too fast to notice—can cause images to blur, machines to restart, or scans to fail. And in regions like Latin America, where power fluctuations are more common, this isn’t hypothetical.
It’s happening every day.
Many clinics rely on generators or surge protectors to help during outages. But those don’t fix the everyday power instability that can quietly wear down imaging equipment or interrupt scans.
That’s why more radiology teams are looking at uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems—not just as backup, but as a way to ensure consistency and confidence in their scans.
A double-conversion UPS helps by:
If your team has ever lost a scan—or had to reboot in the middle of a patient session—it might be time to take a closer look at the power behind your imaging.
Curious if power issues could be affecting your imaging quality?
Let’s talk. We’re happy to share what we’ve seen across LATAM—and how hospitals are solving it.
The Staco Golden Touch: Going Beyond Copper
Most variable transformers are built with bare copper windings.
And while copper is common, it comes with problems: corrosion, drift, and costly downtime. In critical testing environments, those failures don’t just slow you down — they put results and schedules at risk.
At Staco, we do it differently. In our Miamisburg, Ohio facility, every winding is gold-plated. We call it The Staco Golden Touch.
Why Gold Matters
Better Conductivity
Gold provides cleaner, more stable electrical performance. That means precise, repeatable voltage control.
Corrosion Resistance
Unlike bare copper, gold resists oxidation and humidity. That means more reliable performance with fewer interruptions.
Longer Service Life
Gold-plated windings hold up under stress. The result: less downtime and fewer replacements.
Built in Ohio
Every Staco winding is wound and plated in our Miamisburg, Ohio facility. By controlling the process from start to finish, we deliver consistent quality and durability for testing professionals.
When results matter, copper isn’t enough. Gold makes the difference.

Industry leading HVAC manufacturer AAON in Tulsa, OK, needed electrical testing for a new product line and they chose Staco Energy Products. Test stands with expanded testing capability were selected and purchased.
Hunter Mattocks, Director of Operations Development at the Tulsa plant said,
“We went with Staco because the test stands had the capability we needed, the products have a good reputation in the industry, and a strong personal relationship.”
The test systems come in two configurations and have the capability of three phase testing up to 444 Amps, 600 Volts, and 2 different frequencies; 50 and 60 Hertz. The testers will be fully integrated into the production lines which are due to be fully operations later this year.

Mexico's Government Pemex Oil uses specialty UPS and Regulator equipment to protect their refinery and other related petroleum high profile equipment. Our StacoAVR regulator is placed in the bypass of the DSE UPS from AMETEK Solidstate Controls to provide clean continuous regulated power to the loads when the bypass is utilized within the UPS system. The StacoAVR unit was chosen because we were able to meet the special color and technical design specifications required by Pemex to be used within their facilities. Over the last 6 years, we have sold over 40 units of various Kva sizes and voltages for our customer Ametek and their end customer Pemex.

Project was for the replacement of a 25 year old Staco test system used to test large industrial/commercial dishwasher systems sold to universities, hospitals and large institutions. The new system allows testing of a 3-phase system from 180-623 volts and supporting up to a 262 kVA load at any voltage. (e.g. 727 amps @ 208Volts or 250 amps @ 623 Volts).
The SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Menlo Park, Calif., is home to a 2-mile-long linear accelerator — the longest linear accelerator in the world. This multipurpose laboratory for astrophysics, photon science, accelerator, and particle physics research is operated by Stanford University, but used by scientists from many countries. In fact, a few scientists have been awarded the Nobel Prize for work carried out at SLAC. With that kind of pedigree, it’s no surprise that data storage needs are taken very seriously on this campus. So when the facility was experiencing problems with harmonics a few years ago that affected the servers’ power supplies, Boris Ilinets, P.E., electrical engineer assigned to the data center, knew it was time for action.
While Ilinets looked at both passive and active harmonic filters, he opted for active filtering in this instance (10 50A and one 100A StacoSine active harmonic filters from Staco Energy Products Co.) due to the wide range of harmonics present from the servers, disc arrays and switches in the SLAC facility — plus installation was simpler and more cost-efficient. Most importantly, according to Ilinets, they automatically corrected the multiple harmonic orders that were present. Since installation, he’s seen no problems from harmonic distortion. “In a new facility, you can design passive filters on the front end — in an existing building with all equipment in place, however, it is not as easy,” explains Ilinets.

Healthy savings for a major pharmaceutical distribution center were the result of an Energy Initiative by PRES Energy, Dayton, Ohio. The company was able to shave nearly $40,000 (or 18%) annually from its utility costs due to upgrades to their HVAC control and correction of poor power factor. Not bad for a patient showing no symptoms.
Pres Energy worked with equipment provider Staco Energy Products, who then commissioned a power quality survey (sometimes called an audit or study) to be completed for the facility. PowerEdge Technologies installed metering analyzers within the plant that were left in place to collect data for one week. The data collected was used to build a “load profile” that allowed engineers to determine the extent of the power-usage inefficiencies, and whether harmonics or other power anomalies were present. All of this information was then factored into the proper location-specific solution. Continue Reading...
