External platform power supply for diagnostic systems
Description
The Welch Allyn 5W Power Platform Supply is a dedicated external AC-to-DC power supply designed to provide low-voltage power to compatible Welch Allyn diagnostic platforms, including the GS 777 Wall Transformer, Connex ProBP 3400 Digital Blood Pressure Device, Connex Vital Signs Monitor and Green Series Integrated Wall Systems. Supplied as an OEM accessory, the 5W platform power supply delivers stable, medically approved power to the host device via a low-voltage cable, while a separate region-specific plug adaptor connects it to the mains. The 713262 version has been discontinued and superseded by part number 104996 in many markets, but continues to be referenced as a genuine Welch Allyn replacement power adapter for supported platforms.
Bnefits
Genuine Welch Allyn OEM power supply designed specifically for compatible diagnostic platforms
Provides stable low-voltage DC power to devices such as the GS 777 Wall Transformer, Connex ProBP 3400 and selected Connex/Green Series systems
Supports reliable operation and helps prevent damage that may occur when using non-approved power supplies
Compact and lightweight external adapter for easy integration into wall or mobile configurations
Designed to meet medical electrical safety standards (including IEC 60601-1) when used as part of the system
Plug adaptor supplied separately so the same platform supply can support multiple regional mains plug types
Simple replacement process for service engineers and clinical engineering teams
Indications
Replacement platform power supply for compatible Welch Allyn diagnostic platforms requiring a 5W platform supply
Provision of mains power to GS 777 Wall Transformer's USB power platform
Provision of mains power to Connex ProBP 3400 digital blood pressure devices via the platform power interface
Provision of mains power to Green Series 777 Integrated Wall Systems and selected Connex Vital Signs Monitor configurations that use the 5W platform power supply
Use in hospital, clinic and primary care environments where Welch Allyn diagnostic platforms are installed
External AC-to-DC switch-mode power supply module rated at approximately 5 W output
Moulded plastic housing containing the transformer, rectifier and regulation electronics
Fixed low-voltage DC output cable terminating in the platform connector designed for Welch Allyn devices
Input side designed to accept a separate region-specific 5W adapter plug (not included with some SKUs)
Integrated strain relief and insulation to meet medical electrical safety requirements
Formulation
Class II external medical-grade AC-to-DC switch-mode power adapter for diagnostic platforms
Low-voltage DC output suitable for platform power of GS 777 and related systems (5 V platform input as specified in device manuals)
Designed for continuous connection during use of the host device
Works in conjunction with a detachable regional mains plug adaptor to support different mains socket types
Intended exclusively for use with specified Welch Allyn / Hillrom platforms and not as a general-purpose USB or DC adapter
Packaging
Single 5W Power Platform Supply (adapter body with fixed low-voltage cable)
Supplied without plug adaptor in some configurations (plug adaptor not included)
Packaged in a labelled Welch Allyn / Hillrom service or accessory carton or bag with part number identification (e.g., 713262, superseded by 104996)
May include a brief instruction or notice sheet indicating compatible devices and replacement information
Usage
Intended for use only with compatible Welch Allyn diagnostic platforms (e.g., GS 777 Wall Transformer, Connex ProBP 3400, selected Connex Vital Signs and Green Series Integrated Wall Systems); always confirm compatibility using the device manual or official parts list.
Before installation, disconnect the host device from mains power and remove any existing power adapter from both the device and wall outlet.
If a separate 5W adapter plug is required, attach the correct region-specific plug adaptor to the platform power supply body according to its instructions.
Insert the low-voltage connector of the 5W platform power supply firmly into the corresponding power input on the Welch Allyn device or wall transformer platform.
Plug the mains side into a suitable AC outlet that matches the voltage and frequency ratings printed on the adapter label.
Verify that the host device powers on correctly and that any power-indicator LED on the platform or adapter (if present) illuminates, confirming power is present.
Route and secure the cable to avoid tripping hazards, excessive strain, or pinching by furniture or mounting hardware.
Do not use the adapter if the housing, cable or connector is damaged; replace with a new genuine Welch Allyn platform power supply.
Use only indoors in dry environments and follow all safety warnings and installation guidance in the host device’s user manual.
Contraindications
Do not use with devices other than the specified compatible Welch Allyn platforms, as incorrect loading or connector mismatch may cause damage or unsafe operation.
Do not use if the adapter, cable or plug shows signs of damage (cracking, fraying, exposed conductors or loose connector).
Do not use with mains outlets that do not conform to the voltage, frequency or plug type specified on the adapter label.
Do not use in areas where there is a risk of immersion in liquids, excessive condensation or explosive atmospheres, unless explicitly permitted by the host device’s installation instructions.
Adverse Effects
As a non-patient-contact electrical accessory, direct clinical adverse effects are not expected when used correctly.
Use of a damaged or incorrect power supply may result in device malfunction, unexpected shutdown or failure to operate, potentially delaying clinical measurements.
Improper use (e.g., covering the adapter so heat cannot dissipate, or using with incompatible mains voltage) may increase risk of overheating or, in extreme cases, electrical hazard.
Storage Conditions
Store in a clean, dry indoor environment when not connected to a device.
Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight and high humidity, which can degrade plastics and electronic components.
Do not sharply bend, twist or crush the cable; loosely coil the cable during storage to avoid damage to internal conductors.
Keep away from corrosive chemicals or solvents that could damage the housing or insulation.
Store with compatible Welch Allyn platform accessories and clearly label as a 5W Platform Power Supply for service and inventory control.
Duration
Not applicable; this is a power accessory used continuously or as needed for the lifetime of the associated Welch Allyn diagnostic platform.
Onset
Immediate\u2014provides power to the connected Welch Allyn platform as soon as it is properly connected and mains power is switched on.
