Important information
Description of the various signs used in this manual.
Warning
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in accidents involving serious personal injury.
Failing to follow these instructions can result in the product being damaged or destroyed.
Please read the following safety information carefully.
It is important for everyone who is to connect, install or use the systems to have the necessary information and access to this User Manual.
Please be advised that LINAK has taken precautions to ensure the safety of the actuator system. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer/OEM to
get the overall approval for the complete application.
LINAK recommends that the actuators should be used in push applications, rather than pull applications.
LINAK actuators are not to be used for repeated dynamic push-to-pull movements. This cause extra strain to the actuator and can give safety
considerations, the consequence being possible damage to the actuator, e.g.:
• Piston rod eye/back fixture cracks due to fatigue.
• Extra play as parts are deformed.
• Noise as internal parts are moving due to the shifting force direction.
Therefore, if repeated dynamic push-to-pull movements are essential for the application, perform tests to validate the performance.
Moreover, consider strengthening the actuator (e.g. using a steel piston rod eye) – contact LINAK A/S if in doubt.
If the actuator is used for push in an application where personal injury can occur (e.g. patient hoists), a special safety nut must be used.
In general the LA12 actuator is not to be used in push/pull situations.
LINAK® actuators and electronics generally fall outside the IEC 60601-1:2005 definition of applied parts and are not marked as such (IEC 60417-5840).
However assessing the risk, whether actuators and electronics unintentionally can come into contact with the patient, determines that they are subject to
the requirements for applied parts. All the relevant requirements and tests of the standard are carried out as part of the IEC CB-Scheme assessment.
Output ratings:
Nominal values:
On the marking plate on LINAK Control Boxes, Battery Boxes and Power Supplies, we may state the nominal output voltage at a certain load for a
certain product.
Depending on product and load, this value may vary significantly due to construction.
E.g.: For a product with a nominal output voltage of 24VDC, the expected output voltage may vary depending on product and load within a range from
approximately 20VDC to approximately 50VDC due to construction.
When combining LINAK Control Boxes, Battery Boxes and Power Supplies with other LINAK components, compatibility is ensured.
When combining LINAK Control Boxes, Battery Boxes or Power Supplies with third party products, special precautions may be taken.
Relative or absolute positioning for the PLC connection
Relative positioning - By means of a magnetic disc and a hall sensor in the PLC-actuator, it is possible to have encoder pulses with an accuracy down
to 0.5 mm per pulse. This signal can be connected directly to the PLC’s standard digital input.
Absolute positioning - As an alternative the user can have a 0-10V analogue signal from a potentiometer integrated in the PLC-actuator (max. stroke
100 mm). This signal can be connected directly to an analogue PLC input.
Classification:
The equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility - general
LINAK Actuator Systems bear the CE marking as an attestation of compliance With the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU; the systems are designed
to meet all requirements of applicable standards and have been tested to meet requirements of IEC 60601-1-2:2014.
Emission:
LINAK Actuator Systems are CISPR 11, Group 1, Class B products, unless stated otherwise in the relevant section of this document.
Immunity:
Test levels are according to Professional Healthcare Facility Environment.
Electromagnetic phenomena are evaluated on a system level, with the actuator either connected to a LINAK Control Box and accessories
or to some customer-built electronic control circuitry.

Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – third party components
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of the Actuator System could result
in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of the Actuator System and result in improper operation.
Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – interference with other equipment, general
Use of the Actuator System adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided as it could result in improper operation.
If such use is necessary, the Actuator System and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
If the user notes unusual behavior of the Actuator System, in particular if such behavior is intermittent and associated with the standing
right next to mobile phones, microwaves and radio broadcast masts, this could be an indication of electromagnetic interference.
If such behavior occurs, try to move the Actuator System further away from the interfering equipment.
Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – interference with other equipment, RF communications
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer
than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the Actuator System, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the
performance of this equipment could result.
Warning
If the actuator or lifting column is used for pull in an application where personal injury can occur, the following is valid:
It is the application manufacturer’s responsibility to incorporate a suitable safety arrangement, which will prevent personal injury from
occurring, if the actuator should fail.
Residual risk
Some of the products contains software based components. LINAK has done various possible efforts to assure that the software is free of
errors and that the software has been developed according to the rules of IEC 60601-1-4 (software in Medical products). That involves risk
analysis which shows a small residual risk for unwanted/unintended mow of actuators under specific conditions.
According to the above rules it must be informed and if nescessary considered in the risk analysis of the final application - More details to
residual risk can be provided by LINAK if nescessary.
Warning
Note that during construction of applications, in which the actuator is to be fitted, there must be no possibility of personal injury, for
example the squeezing of fingers or arms.
Warning
The plastic parts in the system cannot tolerate cutting oil.
Warning
Assure free space for movement of application in both directions to avoid blockade
Warning
Uninstructed personell must not operate the application or the actuator
Warning
In the event of blockage by an obsticle when application is moving inwards, removing the obsticle will cause the load to drop until spindle
hits the nut
Warning
Do not turn outer tube
Warning
Do not use chemicals, and inspect yearly for damage and wear.
Warning
Do not expose LINAK Actuator System Components to high intensity ultraviolet radiation disinfection lamps. This may damage enclosure,
supporting parts and cables.
Warnings
LINAK’s actuators and electronics are not constructed for use within the following fields:
• Planes and other aircrafts
• Explosive environments
• Nuclear power generation
Warning
LINAK recommends that the actuators should be used in push applications, rather than pull applications.
If the actuator is used for push in an application where personal injury can occur (e.g. patient hoists), a special safety nut must be used.
Except for the LA34 which can be used for both push or pull applications, if mounted with safety nuts in both directions.

Warning
• If faults are observed, the products must be replaced.
• Never spray directly on the products with a highpressure cleaner.
Warning
A LINAK control box, actuator and accessory component must, in the final application, be placed where it is not imposed to any impact.
This is to prevent damage by accidentally being struck by an object in the hand of a passer-by or by a broomstick or a mop handle during
cleaning the floor. On a medical bed e.g. this might be underneath the mattress support platform. If necessary to mitigate this risk,
additional protection might be required.
Warning
Do not shorten the battery, other loads than self-discharge flatten the battery and cause formation of lead sulphate, which, if left in this
state for too long, will irreversibly damage the battery. Avoid bad impact on individuals and environment.
Warnings
Prevent foreign objects or persons from unintentionally activating a footswitch or a hand control at any time e.g. during normal use or
maintenance.
A hand control could be activated by squeezing e.g. between the mattress and the bed frame/rails or when it hangs on an application
that is activated by moving another application into it or by moving the application into something else, e.g. a wall, furniture, another
application etc.
Warning
Handle batteries carefully.
LINAK battery packs may emit flammable gases. So do not bring fire or a heated object close to the battery pack, and never use the battery
near a spark, fuses and/or equipment that emits sparks. Further, do not store the battery in a closed environment or incorporate it into a
closed structure of an enclosure. Doing so can cause an explosion, fire, equipment damage and bodily injury.
Do not connect the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the LINAK battery packs with a wire or other metals. Be careful with
tools and do not wear jewelery when handling batteries. Short-circuiting the terminals of the battery can cause burn injuries, damage to
the storage battery or trigger explosions.
Never connect the LINAK battery packs directly to a power supply socket or an automobile’s cigarette lighter without using a charger
as a medium. Connecting the battery directly can cause the battery to leak fluid, generate heat, explode, cause fires or bodily burns and
injuries.
LINAK battery packs contain toxic substances. If the battery’s internal fluid leaks out and gets onto your skin or clothing, make sure it is
washed off with clean water. Additionally, if the fluid gets in your eyes, wash them with clean water immediately, and see a doctor.
If battery fluid gets into your eyes, it can cause a loss of eyesight and when it gets on your skin, it can cause a burn on your skin.
Do not use or store LINAK battery packs where the surrounding temperature exceed 50°C, such as inside a hot automobile, in direct
sunlight, or in front of a stove or a source of intense heat. Doing so can shorten battery life, lower its performance level, cause the battery
to leak fluid explode, cause fire, be damaged or deformed.
Do not use a LINAK cord set for other devices than LINAK control boxes or LINAK power supplies.
For actuators without plugs, which are not connected to a LINAK control box, the mains supply or the actuator must always be equipped
with an arrangement that switches off the actuator at the end-stop, for example, LS or LSD limit switch. If there is a risk of overloading the
actuator, the mains supply must be equipped with a safety device against overloading (for example a CS16-PCB). If these precautions are
not observed, the actuator can be damaged.
The LINAK products cannot tolerate the influence of strong solvents, basic or alkaline liquids.
Non-LINAK handsets
LINAK handsets are designed specially for LINAK control boxes, and they are designed to be highly reliable and flexible. If the customer
still wishes to use his own handset, it is important to contact a LINAK sales person to find out the requirements with regard to the
switches in the handset. Poor switches can destroy the control box.
The duty cycle printed on the label of the control box must always be noted. If this is exceeded, there is a risk of the control box being
overheated and damaged. Unless otherwise specified on the label, the duty cycle is max. 10% : max. 2 min. in use followed by 18 min.
not in use.

Lithium ion batteries
Li-ion batteries are moving in the direction of minimising the physical size and at the same time, increasing the capacity. This gives a very size-
effective battery but with a high concentration of energy within a small physical size. It also increases the risk of thermal runaway (see note below)
due to internal short circuits.
The general use of Li-ion batteries have increased and the inherent risk of thermal runaway has led to stricter rules within the transport industry,
specifically air transport with tightened restrictions placed on the quantity transported, handling, and storage of specific products moving via air.
The OEMs and consumers have to recognise that although safe to use, there will always remain a very small risk of thermal runaway on a Li-ion cell.
The size of that risk could be as little as 1PPM or even less.
LINAK currently bases our Li-ion battery design on industry proven cell types that have a proven history (e.g. electric cars). The use of well-proven
cell technology reduces the risk of thermal runaway, but it does not eliminate it. LINAK has completed activities to reduce this risk and the complete
battery package is UL approved.
An external, internationally recognised expert has also reviewed the design to ensure that it is according to latest recommendations. Further to that,
we only use cells from well-recognised manufacturers.
LINAK recommends that when using Li-ion batteries, the customer should do a proper risk analysis on their application. The risk analysis must also
focus on not mounting these products where they can be in direct contact with flammable materials.
LINAK Li-ion have no more risk of thermal runaway compared to other Li-ion cells from well-recognised manufacturers within the market. Therefore, it
is clear that LINAK cannot take responsibility for any failures that occur due to a failure that is inherent in the nature of Li-ion batteries.
If any of the Li-ion batteries built into LINAK products are found to be defective under warranty, LINAK will provide a new product to the OEM. LINAK
explicitly disclaims all other remedies. LINAK shall not in any event be liable under any circumstances for any special indirect punitive incidental or
consequential damages or losses arising from any incident related to the inherent risk of thermal runaway in the Li-ion cell and any use of LINAK
products. Moreover, LINAK explicitly disclaims lost profits, failure to realise expected savings, any claim against our customer by a third party, or any
other commercial or economic losses of any kind, even if LINAK has been advised of the possibility of such damages or losses.
Note: ‘Thermal runaway’ is overheating of a cell and it could lead to a small fire and smoke from the cell.
Transportation
The lithium ion batteries must be packed and transported according to applicable regulations. Always ask your local transportation provider how to
handle the transportation of lithium ion batteries.
Please see the general assembly instructions on page 11 and the mounting section on page 24 for detailed information.

Attention should be paid to the following:
• Control boxes must only be connected to the mains voltage specified on the label. All DIN, jack, or minifit plugs from the CB6S/CB12/CB14/CB16/
CB20 IPX6 Washable should be locked by using a LINAK locking mechanism.
• The control box must be connected in such a way that the cables are not trapped, exposed to tension or sharp objects when the application is
moved in different directions.
• All Control boxes with mains supply should be connected to the mains before they are able to work.
• On an Openbus system the maximum power consumption is max 200 mA on 8V and on 40 V lines for all connected units.
• On an Openbus system the maximum connected number of unit are 12 version 1.0” and for version 1.1 the max numbers are 20.
Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are being charged 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong the lifetime
of the batteries.
If the customer uses a non-LINAK battery, it is important to check that the current is not reversed (plus and minus swapped over) This applies to both
control boxes, which always run off battery and control boxes with battery backup. Contact your nearest LINAK dealer for specification of type, size etc.
The control current in the handset cable must not exceed 100 mA.
The control box is the heart of the system and connects the various outlying units (actuators, lifting columns, handsets and attendent controls). Control
boxes differ widely in complexity. The simplest are only able to convert control signals from the handset into operating voltage for the actuator. The most
advanced are microprocessor controlled and have advanced functions such as, parallel running of several actuators and other complex correlations. Most
LINAK control boxes provide an Electronic Overload Protection (EOP), designed to protect the actuator (excl. LA12, LA29, LA31, LA34), against overload
by disconnecting the current when the actuator is fully extended or retracted. If an LA12, LA29, LA31, LA34 actuator is used, the built-in limit swit ches
stop the actuator when fully extended or retracted, and the control box only disconnects when the maximum current is exceeded. Please contact LINAK
for further details on specific systems.
The actuator is the unit, which converts the operating voltage from the control box into a linear movement.
The principle of the LINAK actuator’s mode of operation is that a low voltage DC motor (5), via a gear system (12), rotates a threaded spindle, onto
which a nut is fitted. As this nut cannot rotate, since the piston rod (2) is restrained, the piston rod will move forwards or backwards, when the
threaded spindle rotates.
On the basis of motor type, gearing, and the threaded spindle’s pitch, the actuator’s thrust and speed are determined.
The handset is the unit to be used when you want the LINAK® system to perform a movement. It determines whether the control box will make the
actuator move in or out. There are many variants of LINAK handsets.
The Attendant Control (ACC, ACK, ACL, ACM, ACP, ACO) is an accessory used when nursing staff want to restrict the patients adjustment options
of a bed. It is often used in conjunction with a handset and disables selected functions on the handset. It can also have control functions with the
same function as those on the handset.
For safety reasons, open function activation of ACP and ACO (ACC, ACK) requires activation of two buttons.
1. System description:
Usage/type of applications:
LINAK actuators, lifting columns and electronics have been developed for use in all places where a linear movement is required.
LINAK’s products can, for example, be used for:
• Adjustment of beds
• Adjustment of furniture
• Adjustment of table heights and angles
• Patient hoists within the care and hospital sector
Recommendation
It is recommended to have options like quick release, manual lowering or similar built into the system, in case of power loss or system
failure, if movement of the system is critical. After service it is recommended to test the system for correct functionality before it is put
back into operation.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
LINAK considers ESD to be an important issue and years of experience have shown that equipment designed to meet the 8kV level specified in the
Standards such as IEC 60601-1-2, EN50082-2 are insufficient to protect electronic equipment in certain enviroments.
LINAK handles all Electro Static Discharge Sensitive devices (ESDS) according to EN61340
1. Handling and Mounting of ESDS devices.
• Handling of sensitive components only takes place in an ESD Protected Area (EPA) under protected and controlled conditions.
• Wrist straps and/or conductive footwear (personal grounding) are always used when handling ESDS devices.
• Sensitive devices are protected outside the EPA by the use of ESD protective packaging.
2. Responsibility LINAK/Customer.
• ESDS devices must under no circumstances, during transport, storage, handling, production or mounting in an aplication, be exposed to harmfull ESD.
• LINAK can only guarantee the lifetime of ESDS devices if they are handled in the same way from production at LINAK A/S until they are mounted
in the manufacturers application. It is therefore important that the ESDS devices are not removed from the ESD protected packaging before they
are within the EPA area at the customers premises.

IP Protection degree
The products can be cleaned as follows according to their IP protection, which is stated on the product label.
The IP code specifies the degrees of protection provided by the enclosures. For most products only the protection against ingress of water (second
characteristic numeral) is specified, ingress of solid foreign objects or dust (first characteristic numeral) is not specified and therefore replaced by the
letter X in the code. For some special industrial products both the first and second characteristic numerals are specified. This is a demand from the
marked and will only be specified if tested and approved.
IP protection Cleaning instructions
IPX0 Clean with a damp cloth
IPX1 Clean with a damp cloth
IPX2 Clean with a damp cloth
IPX3 Clean with a damp cloth
IPX4 Clean with a damp cloth

IPX6 Washable - Description of washing test
LINAK washable products are frequently put through a fully regulated washing test.
LINAK understanding of the word washable is that the products conform to this test and none other.
Reference: The Norm EN 60601-2-52, which includes special demands to fundamental safety and relevant functional characteristics for
hospital beds.
The demands for the washing process are described in the German “Maschinelle Dekontamination” from the organization
AK-BWA.
Description: At LINAK the washing test takes place in an instrument washing machine, which is fitted and programmed in such a way that
it duplicates the process used in a typical hospital installation for the cleaning of beds and other medical equipment.
During the test the products are exposed to both thermal and chemical effects.
To avoid degreasing of the piston rod, the actuator should be retracted to minimum stroke and without load before washing.
Preparation: As plastic materials to a larger or lesser degree change characteristics and shape with time and climatical exposure, an aging
of the products is carried out first.The conditions for aging are 65 °C +/- 2°C in normal dry air for10 days followed by a
minimum of 16 hours at room temperature before the washing process starts.
Procedure: Aging for 10 days at 65°C.
Rest for a minimum of 16 hours.
The washing process proceeds in the following way:
• Wash with Alkaline detergent for 2 min. with 70 °C warm water in the tank
• Rinse with neutral rinsing product for 20 sec. with 85 °C warm water in the tank
• Drying and cooling for 10 min. in open air at normal room temperature approx. 20 °C
• The washing process is repeated 50 times
Washing machine: Only flat squirt nozzles are allowed. An approved setup could be:
Water Pressure 3 Bar, water volume 5,61 L/min, Dispersion angle 120 degree, flat squirt nozzle.
Washable products and mounting: The products used in washable applications should be specified as such in the specification
phase. The washable components must be mounted according this guideline to guarantee washability:
The components should be mounted with the plug inserts facing downwards, or situated so that they are protected from direct
impact from the water nozzles. The cables should be guided in such a manner, that there is no apparent strain to the interface
between the cable and its connection (for instance between cable and control box).
It is furthermore also recommended that the control box is situated as far away from the water nozzles as possible. For instance
in the center of the bed frame. Industrial high pressure cleaning is NOT allowed.
It is the application manufacture’s responsibility to ensure washability of the application. LINAK can be contacted for technical
support if needed.
Water: Degree of hardness not more than 5° dH and no demineralized water.
Detergents: LINAK recommend the following products:
• Sekumatic FDR or FRE from Ecolab
• Neodisher Dekonta from Dr. Weigert
• Thermosept NDR from Schülke or similar with a pH-value of 5-8 and in a concentration of 0.5%
Rinsing aids: LINAK recommend the following products:
• Sekumatic FKN from Ecolab
• Neodisher BP or TN from Dr. Weigert
• Thermosept BSK from Schülke or similar with a pH-value of 5-8 and in a concentration of 0.2%.
Demands to products:
• They must not contain caustic solutions
• They must not change the surface structure or adhesive properties of the plastic
• Must not break down grease.

Cable Wash
Before the washing procedure starts!
In order to maintain the flexibility of the cables, it is important that the cable is placed in such a way that the cable’s own weight does not strain the
coil during the washing process.
This can be done by placing the cable ON the bed or another form of support for the cable.
Please see the examples in the below pictures

Maintenance
Valid for all LINAK products
• The LINAK products must be cleaned at regular intervals to remove dust and dirt and inspected for mechanical damage, wear and breaks,
- worn out parts must be replaced.
• Inspection/maintenance intervals shall be defined by the equipment manufacturer
• The LINAK products are closed units and require no internal maintenance.
• Only type IPX6 is waterproof and type IPX6 Washable tolerates being washed in tunnels.
• The LINAK products must be IPX6 Washable when cleaning in wash tunnels. Make sure that the plugs are correctly fitted with O-rings before washing.
• O-rings: When individual parts are replaced in a LINAK IPX6 or IPX6 Washable system, the O-rings on all parts, must be replaced at the same time.
On control boxes with a replaceable mains fuse, the O-ring in the fuse cover must be replaced every time the cover has been removed.
The O-rings must be greased in water free vaseline when replacing them. Make sure that the counterpart - the socket - is clean and undamaged.
Valid for all LINAK actuators and lifting columns
• Actuators/lifting columns must be inspected at attachment points, wires, piston rod, cabinet, and plugs, as well as checking that the actuator/
lifting columns function correctly.
• To ensure that the pregreased inner tube remain lubricated the actuator must only be washed down when the piston rod is fully retracted.
Valid for all LINAK control boxes and handsets
• Electronics must be inspected at attachment points, wires, cabinet, and plugs.
• Inspect the connections, cables, cabinet, and plugs, and check for correct functioning (does not apply to battery versions).
• With the exception of the CS16 the control box is sealed and maintenance free.
• Inspect at regular intervals that the ventilation aperture on the external battery is positioned correctly and is intact throughout its length,
approx. 20 mm., see figure 1.

Insulation class
LINAK control boxes are available in insulation class 1 and insulation class 2.
Class 1 means with earth connection
Class 2 means without earth connection
When measuring the resistance in the earth connection in LINAK Control Boxes (class 1), it is recommended to use equipment, delivering a test
current of no less than 5A. The resulting voltage will correspond to the resistance in the earth connection. Test currents below 5A, would yield no
exact measurements.
Key to symbols
The following symbols are used on the label on the LINAK products.
If the application is insulation dielectric strength tested by applying a test voltage from the terminals of the mains connection to any
accessible metal parts (e.g. 4 kV for 240 V rated medical equipment), corona discharge or a momentary flashover might occur within
the actuator. This is not considered as an insulation breakdown.
However to avoid to overstress different types and levels of insulation, the control box and the actuator must be tested individually
(disconnected) with the respective dielectric strength test voltages (e.g. 4 kV for a 240 V rated control box and 500 V for the actuator).
This principle is in accordance with IEC 60601-1:2005, cl. 8.8.3.

Mounting
Actuator:
Do not use any other screws for the mounting brackets than those recommended by LINAK. If longer screws are used they will come into contact with
the inner parts of the actuator. This will result in an irregular operation or even damage the actuator.
During mounting, the actuator must always be:
• Fixed, to protect it against torque and bending. See Figure 2.
• Fixed, so that it is restrained, but free to move on its mountings. See Figure 3.
• Fixed in brackets, which can take up the torque reaction. See Figure 3.
• Mounted at right angles, so that the right angle requirement is observed. See Figure 4.
• Mounted with correct bolt dimension.
• Mounted with bolts and nuts made of high quality steel grade (e.g. 10.8). No thread on bolt inside back fixture or piston rod eye.
• Bolts and nuts must be protected from being able to fall out.
• Inspect the actuator for damage before mounting. Damaged actuator must not be mounted. Watch e.g. for damaged packaging.
• Do not use a too high tourque when mounting the bolts for back fixture or piston rod eye
Control boxes:
• The mounting screws on the control box must be tightened with a maximum torque of 1 Nm
• The mounting surface to which the control box is attached should have a surface evenness better than ± 0.5 mm.
• Systems must not be installed/deinstalled while in operation.
• Control boxes with a wet alarm must be mounted as shown on figure 5.
• Nuts and bolts must be made of steel.
• Nuts and bolts must be tightened securely.
• Control boxes with earth connection (Class 1), here the nut must be tightened with a torque of 1-1,2 Nm.
The correct bolt size for securing the CB8, CB12, CB14, CB16, CB20 and CUDM, is Ø5 mm and the ACP box is M5.
Cables:
It is important to remove the transport plastic bag before using the cable. Cables need to be fixed to the application or to be placed in
such a way that users cannot stumble and injure themselves.
Accessories:
The mounting screws on the accessories must be tightened with a maximum torque of 1 Nm. IRO can be mounted with a higher torque, up to 2 Nm.
• The mounting surface to which the accessory is attached should have a surface evenness better than ± 0.5 mm.
• Systems must not be installed/de-installed while in operation.
• Nuts and bolts must be made of steel.
• Nuts and bolts must be tightened securely. The correct bolt size for securing the DJB, IRO, MJB, SLS and SMPS30 is M4 and the BA18 is M5.
• Mounting 0964135-C (UBL) must be with M3 bolt and a maximum torque of 0,25 Nm.
Controls:
The mounting screws on the controls must be tightened with a maximum torque of 1 Nm.
• The mounting surface to which the accessory is attached should have a surface evenness better than ± 0.5 mm.
• Systems must not be installed/de-installed while in operation.
• Nuts and bolts must be made of steel.
• Nuts and bolts must be tightened securely.
The correct bolt size for securing the ACC and ACL is M4, for ACP is it M5 and for the ACM is it M6.
For further instructions regarding mounting, see the data sheet for
the individual product or in chapter 5, 6 or 8 in this manual.

Connecting the system
Do not connect the mains cable until all actuators and handsets have been connected to the control box.
Start by connecting the handset to the control box. The connection in the control box is marked with “HB”.
Connect the different actuators to the different channels on the control box. Each channel is marked with a number (e.g. “1”, “2”, “3”…….).
Check that all plugs are well connected and firm pushed into the connection plug. Due to the fact that LINAK control boxes are designed for a high IP
degree a firm force can be required.
Connect the mains cable.
The actuators can now be operated by pushing a button on the handset. Use only one button at the time.
If the control box is equipped with a special software an initializing process might be necessary. This process is described in the software specification.
LINAK
control box
LINAK handset LINAK actuator or lifting column
Attention should be paid to the following:
• Control boxes must only be connected to the mains voltage specified on the label. All DIN, jack or minifit plugs from the CB6S/CB12/CB14/CB16/
CB20 IPX6 Washable should be locked by using a LINAK locking mechanism.
• The control box must be connected in such a way that the cables are not trapped, exposed to tension or sharp objects when the application is
moved in different directions.
• All Control boxes with mains supply should be connected to the mains before they are able to work.
Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are being charged 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong the lifetime
of the batteries.
If the customer uses a non-LINAK battery, it is important to check that the current is not reversed (plus and minus swapped over) This applies to both
control boxes, which always run off battery and control boxes with battery backup. Contact your nearest LINAK dealer for specification of type, size
etc. The control current in the handset cable must not exceed 100 mA.
Any non-detachable power supply cord with mains plug is considered as the disconnecting device.
Charging is only allowed in dry environment, and appliance inlet must be thoroughly dried before connecting to mains.
All types of actuators may only be connected according to the label, where the voltages 12, 24, or 36 VDC are indicated.
a) Actuators with jack plugs may only be connected to LINAK control boxes
b) Actuators without plugs are connected as shown in Figures 6.1 - 6.12.
For actuators operating without a control box, the mains supply of the actuator must be equipped with an arrangement, which switches off the
actuator at end-stop (e.g. LS or LSD limit switch). If there is a risk of overloading the actuator, the mains supply must be equipped with a safety device
against overloading (e.g. a CS16 PCB). If this requirement is not observed, the actuator may be damaged.
Actuators with internal control PCBs’s are not first failure safe if used in a system combination without power request (power for actuator switched
ON only when handset key active).

Warnings
• When using BAJL and JUMBO control boxes, loss of power might happen due to the battery deep discharge protection. This will only happen in
case of continuous battery use despite warnings. In this event, there may be no warning and the application may not be able to move when
expected.
• In his risk analysis, the customer must take into consideration how to assure alternative means to make movement, e.g. quick release or manual
lowering.
• The combination of CBJ1 or CBJ2 with BAJL might not be able to complete a full cycle after low battery warning.
• Do not open the battery housing as damaging the cell or circuitry may develop excessive heat.
• If product caution is not clearly visible at low light intensity, read the product label instructions symbol. A warning must be included in the
application manufacturer’s manual for the medical device.
• The application manufacturer must test the application and ensure that intentional and unintended operations do not exceed the battery
specification limits. The application manufacturer must assure other means of movement, e.g. quick release or manual lowering.
• Defective or damaged li-ion batteries are not allowed for transportation.
• For safety reasons, please adhere to the indicated charging and operation temperature.
• In case the battery is too hot, disconnect it and evacuate the room and wait for 2 hours before taking further steps.
• Mounting instructions must be followed in order to avoid exposing batteries to water.
• Recharging of battery must take place every 6 months.
• Disposal of the battery takes place in accordance with local regulations.
Recommendations:
• Do not exceed the storage temperature as it will shorten the product life and performance.
• Allow the battery to settle to room temperature before use.
• Do not exceed the duty cycle (see product label) as it will shorten the product life, reduce performance and eventually activate excess temperature
protection.
• Lithium ion batteries are not intended for use in outdoor applications and indoor pool environments.
• If the battery is completely discharged, then recharge the battery before storage.
• Always use correct LINAK charger.
DO NOT:
• Heat or burn the batteries.
• Short circuit the batteries.
• Expose the batteries to high impact / excessive force.
• Crush or puncture the batteries.
• Use batteries with signs of damage or corrosion.
• Charge or store the batteries near combustible material.
• Expose the batteries to water or other liquids.
• Overcharge or fully discharge the batteries.
For detailed information on specific use of batteries, please see the product information in chapter 5.
Safety feature
Lithium ion batteries contain several mechanisms to protect itself from being damaged due to excessive use.
In case of overheating, the device will activate a thermal protection. No power output will be available until the temperature is back again within
normal operating range.
Overheating may occur by extensive use at high temperature or when exceeding the duty cycle. (see product label)

Maintenance of batteries
Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are being charged at least 24 hours and longer if possible in order to reach proper
function and prolong the lifetime of the batteries.
Warnings
• Please observe the following maintenance, replacement, and disposal requirements to ensure a safe and reliable operation.
• The batteries are to be replaced after 4 years at the latest. Perhaps earlier, dependent on the pattern of use. Frequent and high-powered
discharges reduce the battery life. For an optimum lifetime the product must be connected to the mains voltage as often as possible. It is
recommended that the batteries are to be charged at least every 6 months - otherwise will the batteries have reduced capacity due to self-
discharge. It is recommended to test the battery function at least once every year.
Replacement of batteries
The batteries must only be replaced by the same type of batteries or mechanical and electrical equivalent types. The batteries must be new or
maintained by means of charging at least every 6 months. The batteries, which make a set, must be supplied with identical production codes.
Mismatching of production codes may lead to a severely reduced lifetime expectancy.
Before mounting ensure that the battery set is correctly connected, compare with the drawing in the battery room, and check that no connectors are
loose.
Warnings
• From the factory, the battery room is hermetically separated from the electronics room. When replacing the batteries this separation must not be
damaged or modified as this may allow penetration of battery gas into the electronics room with risk of explosion.
• When replacing batteries in waterproof products (IPX5 and IPX6) precautions must be taken that the sealing material (silicone ring or joint filler)
is not damaged and that it is correctly placed in the groove. Hereafter the screws in the cover are to be fastened with approx. 1 Nm. If the seal is
damaged it must be replaced by a new silicone string (LINAK article no. 0008004 for a roll of 100 meters).
Disposal
The batteries, which are lead-acid batteries, can be returned to LINAK or disposed in the same way as car batteries.
Warnings
• The battery room is supplied with ventilation that ensures correct and necessary airing of the battery room. This airing must not be blocked or
covered as a positive pressure may occur with risk of explosion.
• If the product has been exposed to mechanical overload (lost on the floor, collision/squeezing in the application or a powerful stroke) the product
must be sent to an authorised workshop for control of the hermetic separation between the battery and electronics rooms.

2. Information on start-up, de-installation and operation
Before installation, de-installation, or troubleshooting:
• Stop the actuator/lifting column.
• Switch off the power supply or pull out the mains plug and pull out the plug to the actuator/lifting column.
• Relieve the actuator/lifting column of any loads, which may be released during the work.
Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are being charged 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong the lifetime
of the batteries.
Before start-up:
• Make sure that the system has been installed as instructed in the User Manual.
• The individual parts (actuator/lifting column/handsets etc.) must be connected before the control box is connected to the mains.
• Make sure that the voltage of the mains to be connected to the product or the system is the one stated on the label.
• Make sure that the actuator/lifting column is connected to a mains electricity supply/transformer with the correct voltage and which is
dimensioned and adapted for the actuator in question.
• The equipment can be freely moved over the actuator/lifting column’s whole working area.
• Check correct function after mounting.
• The actuator/lifting column must not be loaded in excess of the values indicated in the specifications on the product label.
• The duty cycle noted on the product label must always be noted. Otherwise there is a risk of damaging the products.
Exceeding the duty cycle will result in a dramatic reduction of the life time of the system.
Unless specified otherwise on the product label the duty cycle is max. 10% : Max. 2 minutes in use followed by 18 minutes not in use.
• The actuator/lifting column system may only be used in an environment corresponding to the system’s IP-rating.
LINAK products are marked with the actual IP-rating on the label.
• If any individual parts are suspected to be damages, do not install the parts, but return them for inspection/service.
During operation:
• Listen for unusual sounds and watch out for uneven running. Stop the actuator/lifting column immediately if anything unusual is observed.
• If the control box makes unusual noises or smells, switch off the mains voltage immediately and the external battery, if any.
• Take care that the cables are not damaged.
• Unplug the mains cable on mobile equipment before it is moved.

The LA22 is an in-line actuator specially designed with a small overall dimension for
easy use in industrial, agricultural, and rehabilitation products.
Thanks to its small outer dimensions and linear design, the LA22 is well suited for
applications where installation space is limited, such as on wheelchairs.
The LA23 is a small and strong push actuator (up to 2500 N). The LA23 can be used
in various applications where size is important. The LA23 is e.g. ideal for adding tilt-
function to a desk, so the table top can tilt or for adjustment in handicap kitchens.
Some of the benefits the LA23 offers you are:
• Compact design
• High lifting force
• Exchangeable cables
3. Information on specific actuators

1. LA22 (MEDLINE® CARELINE® TECHLINE®)
2. LA23 (DESKLINE®)
Warnings
• Do not sideload the actuator.
• Only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• When mounting the LA23 in the application ensure that the bolts can withstand the wear and that they are secured safely.
• If an actuator with stroke length below 50 mm is used, and the electrical end-stop switch fails, please be aware that the distance before reaching
the mechanical end- stop will be prolonged. The extra distance will be 50 mm minus actual stroke length.
I.e. If an actuator with 20 mm stroke length is used and the switch fails, it will travel an additional 30 mm before reaching the mechanical end-stop.
• Instruction concerning the turning of the piston rod eye
When mounting and taking into use, it is not permitted to make excessive turns of the piston rod eye. In cases where the eye is not positioned
correctly, it is permitted to first screw the eye down to its bottom position, at a maximum torque of 2 Nm (1), and thereafter a maximum half
turn outwards again (2).

Recommendations:
• Do not place load on the actuator housing and do prevent impact or blows, or any other form of stress to the housing.
• Ensure that the cable lock is mounted correctly.
• Ensure that the duty cycle and the usage temperatures for LA23 actuators is respected.
• Ensure that the cable cannot be squeezed, pulled or subjected to any other stress.
• The LA23 is not suitable for use in outdoor applications where it can be exposed to sun and rain.
If outdoor use cannot be avoided, it is very important that the LA23 is mounted in a position where it is well shielded. It is up to the customer to
provide the shielding. Furthermore, it will be good practice to ensure that the actuator is fully retracted in the “normal” position. The reason is that
there will be a vacuum inside the actuator if it is extended which over time can lead to water entering the actuator.
The item numbers for ordering the Cable Lock are:
• Item number: 0231007 (light grey) for one cable lock (1 piece).
• Item number: 0231037 (black) for one cable lock (1 piece).
Below you see an instruction in how to mount and remove the cable lock from LA23.
a) Mount a cable lock:
Push down until the cable lock clicks into place.
Step 1:
Insert e.g. a
screwdriver at
a 45° angle

Warnings
• Do not sideload the actuator.
• Only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• Always use steel backfixture for LA23 over 1500N and for pull loads.
• The B and G 24V motors must only be used with their respective control box types.
- Motor type A: 12V motor must be used with CBD4, CBD5 and CBD6
- Motor type B: 24V motor which must be used with JUMBO; CBJ1/2, CBJC and CBJH or generally in applications which are mainly driven with battery
- Motor type G: 24V motor which must be used with OpenBusTM control boxes; CB20, CB16, CB6S, CA30, CA40, CO61
• If an actuator with stroke length below 50 mm is used, and the electrical end-stop switch fails, please be aware that the distance before reaching the
mechanical end-stop will be prolonged. The extra distance will be 50 mm minus actual stroke length. I.e. If an actuator with 20 mm stroke length is
used and the switch fails, it will travel an additional 30 mm before reaching the mechanical end-stop. Please make sure that the application can
withstand this in a safe way.
• Instruction concerning the turning of the piston rod eye. When mounting and taking into use, it is not

• Ensure that the duty cycle and the usage temperatures for LA23 actuators is respected
• Ensure that the cable cannot be squeezed, pulled or subjected to any other stress.
• If a cable lock has been removed it is recommended to check if it is has been damaged during removal. If so it is recommended to replace with a new one.
• Before mounting a cable, ensure that the cable, cable plug or o-ring is not damaged. If damage is observed, the cable must be replaced with a new one.
• The B and G 24V motors must only be used with their respective control box types.
• Not acceptable: B motor with OpenBus™ control boxes!
Reason: The actuator will be too strong, it will run too fast, be noisy and only have a short lifetime. The actuator will not live up to what we promise.
• Not acceptable: G motor with 24V supply!
Reason: The actuator will be too weak, this means it will only run slowly, not be able to lift as much in the cold and under low current conditions.
The actuator will not live up to what we promise.
• The LA23 is not suitable for use in outdoor applications where it can be exposed to sun and rain.
If outdoor use cannot be avoided, it is very important that the LA23 is mounted in a position where it is well shielded. It is up to the customer to

The LA27 actuator is a powerful actuator designed for applications such as furniture
and care beds.
Built-in end-stop circuit (CS27)
In the LA27/CS27 the actuator is switched off at the end position. There is no overload
protection.
• The LA27CS27 has no IP classification and is connected to a HB71 or HB72.
The power supply is the TR6 or TR7.
It is important that the supply voltage 24 VDC is connected correctly (see Figure 6.7)
otherwise the CS-circuit may be destroyed.
Mechanical spline:
The splines function so that the actuator can only push, not pull. During pull in the
actuator, the inner tube is lifted off the thread bush, and the actuator can therefore
never pull a load, only push.
Functional test of mechanical splines:
When the piston rod is at the innermost position, it must be possible to pull it out manually to its full travel length and to press it in again without
much resistance and without using the motor. If this is not possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.
Quick Release:
The LA27 with QR is designed to be used as a part of the backrest function in a Care/Hospital bed. The QR function allows a patient to be lowered
manually to a flat position very quickly (CPR) in case of an emergency.
Functional test of QR:
To test a LA27QR it is necesarry to have the actuator built into an application. The release cable has to be provided and mounted by the customer.
The necesarry force on the cable requiered to operate the Quick Release is approx. 20 kg. The necesarry force on the actuator to operate the quick
release is approx. 50 kg. Wenn operating the QR, it is recommended that the QR is activated all the way down.
Usage:
• Duty cycle: 2/18; 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use
• Duty cycle: Max 5% or 1 min. continuous use followed by 19 minutes not in use - with 8000 N version.
• Lifetime limited to only 3000 cycles according to EN1970 - with 8000 N version
• Ambient temperature: +5o to +40oC (the actuator must also be at this temp.)
• Approvals: LA27 is approved according to the 3rd edition of IEC 60601-1, ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1 and CAN/CSA C-22.2 No. 60601-1
NOTE: re. LA27 with 6.000N specification (274x3xxx1xxx0xZ; Z = A or B with worm shaft*) for OpenBus™: I.e. to use such combination a
preceding test MUST be carried out.
This combination reduces the self-lock ability because of lower friction from the worm shaft which has a rolled axle. The worm shaft is however
needed because of the OpenBus™ output power.
The problem related to an application:
The self-lock ability may be reduced in cases where the load curve is 6.000 N in both minimum and maximum stroke length.
Warnings
• The actuator must not be used in pull applications when the quick release is activated, as the risk of personal injury can arise.
• Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• Do not sideload the actuator.
Recommendations
• LA27 is not meant to have CB6S OBL/OBF mounted on the actuator. The CB6S OBL/OBF must be mounted separately using a bracket.
• LA27 must have a minimum installation dimension of 320 mm if control box CB6 is to be mounted on the actuator.
• The cable for the LA27 is not part of the actuator therefore it must be ordered separately.
• Piston rod eye: The distance from the centre of the eye, to the end of the actuator.
• Change between push and pull not allowed
• Inspect actuator once a year, for wear and jarring sound.
• We recommend using a safety nut in medical applications
• Do not expose actuators without all cables fitted to water/cleaning.
• No thread on bolt inside back fixture.
Note:
For CB6 the current will be cut off when the total current on all channels reaches approx. 5.1 to 5.4 Amp. This means that when two LA27´s running
simultaneously are connected to a CB6 they will not be able to lift the max. load mentioned under technical specifications.

The LA28 is primarily a system actuator. The actuator is very quiet and powerful designed
for use in the furniture, rehabilitation, and hospital bed line of businesses.
The actuator is also ideal for use in agricultural machinery and for a wide range of
industrial applications.
Reed-switch:
Reed-switch gives a number of pulses for each rotation of the motor. These pulses are
used to calculate the piston rod’s position as well as to control several actuators running
in parallel.
Your nearest LINAK dealer can inform the number of pulses per stroke length.
Regarding Reed-switch connection, Figure 6.8 (LA28R)
Built-in end-stop circuit (CS28/CS28S)
In the LA28 actuator, with built-in CS28 A-, B- or C-PCB, the actuator is switched off at the end position or when overloaded.
LA28 actuator with:
• The CS28 A is standard IPX1 and is connected to a HB41 handset with a telephone plug.
• The CS28 B is standard IPX5 and is connected to a HB41 handset with a DIN plug. CS32 B is also available in IPX6.
• The CS28 C is standard IPX1 and is connected to an external contact or control. See figure 6.7.
Mechanical spline:
The splines function so that the actuator can only push, not pull. During pull in the actuator, the inner tube is lifted off the thread bush, and the actuator
can therefore never pull a load, only push.
Functional test of mechanical splines:
When the piston rod is at the innermost position, it must be possible to pull it out manually to its full travel length and to press it in again without much
resistance and without using the motor. If this is not possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.
Warning
Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.

The LA29 actuator is a HOMELINE® actuator specially made for domestic applications.
The actuator has a very short installation dimension as the distance between the two
fixing points is small when the actuator is retracted and at the same time independent
of the stroke length. This feature makes the actuator ideal as a lifting actuator for
self-lifting recliners.
Another special feature here is the flexible back fixture, which can adapt misalign-
ments in e.g. a recliner application.
The LA29 is compatible with various HOMELINE® control boxes.
Reed switch:
The Reed switch gives a number of pulses for each rotation of the motor. These pulses
are used to calculate the position as well as to control several actuators running in
parallel.
Your nearest LINAK dealer can inform the number of pulses per stroke length.
Regarding Reed-switch connection, see Figure 6.10.
Hall
The Hall principle is very similar to the Reed principle. A Hall sensor is based on a magnet that rotates. Two hall sensors are placed close to the magnet
field. The control box (CB20/CB6S OBF/CB16 OBF/CBD4/CBD5) can detect whenever the magnetic field changes direction.
The two Hall sensors are placed close to each other, but with a small displacement. This distance leads to a timing difference between the two pulses.
Whichever one of them comes first indicates the direction of movement. Therefore, there will be no error summary (as with the reed switch) Hall is
therefore a very precise system. Hall is not suitable for use in quick release actuators - see figure 10.
Built-in end-stop circuit
The end-stop switch is part of the actuator construction. Each time the actuator reaches end-stop position the switch is activated and the current is
cut off.
Warning
Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.
The LA28 Compact is a small and powerful actuator designed for use in system
solutions for healthcare equipment or industrial applications. Ideal applications are for

The actuator can be supplied with options such as built-in potentiometer for servo
operation or an extra powerful motor for increased speed and strength (S-motor).
In addition to industrial and agricultural applications, the actuator is also ideal for

The LA31 actuator is a very quiet and powerful actuator designed for a variety of
applications such as furniture, care, or hospital beds. The standard LA31 actuator is
available for both the HOMELINE and CARELINE product ranges.
Reed-switch:
The Reed-switch gives a number of pulses for each rotation of the motor. These pulses
are used to calculate the piston rod’s position as well as to control several actuators
running in parallel.

Usage
• Duty cycle: Max 10% or 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use.
• Ambient temperature: + 5° to + 40°C
• The CARELINE system has full compliance with EN 60601-1
Hall
The Hall principle is very similar to the Reed principle. A Hall sensor is based on a magnet that rotates. Two hall sensors are placed close to the
magnet field. The control box (CB20/CB6S OBF/CB16 OBF/CBD4/CBD5) can detect whenever the magnetic field changes direction. The two Hall-
sensors are placed close to each other, but with a small displacement. This distance leads to a timing difference between the two pulses. Whichever
one of them comes first indicates the direction of movement. Therefore, there will be no error summary (as with the reed-switch) Hall is therefore a
very precise system. Hall is not suitable for use in quick release actuators. see figure 10.
Built-in end-stop circuit
In the actuators mentioned the end-stop switch is part of the actuator construction. Each time the actuator reaches end-stop position, the switch is
activated and the current is cut off. In addition to the end-stop switch, we also recommend a mechanical end stop function as an additional safety
option for applications where it will be necessary.
Quick Release:
The LA31 with Quick Release is designed to be used as a part of the backrest function in a Care/Hospital bed. The Quick Release function allowes a
patient to be lowered manually to a flat position very quickly (CPR) in case of an emergency.
New version of Quick Release (Internal Quick Release)
The new version of the Quick Release is integrated in the clutch of the LA31. It operates by way of a release cable that is pulled. Hereafter, the
clutch is declutched and the spindle can turn freely. Due to the pressure on the piston rod end from the application, the spindle will rotate thus
moving the actuator inwards. Due to this new version the LA31 actuator can keep its standard installation dimension and has a protection class up
to IPX6 washable.
The Quick Release is e.g. used for emergency lowering of the headrest part of a bed.
External Quick Release
The quick release function is placed in the piston rod end, in which a wrappedspring clutch can be loosened by means of turning the spring housing
either by the handle or a cable. Hereafter, the inner tube can turn freely and due to the pressure on the piston rod end from the application, the
inner tube will rotate and thus screw itself downwards.
Functional test of QR:
To test a LA31QR it is necesarry to have the actuator built into an application. The release cable has to be provided and mounted by the customer.
The necessary force on the cable requiered to operate the Quick release is approx. 5 kg. The minimum actuator load required to drive the actuator
downwards is approx. 50 or 75 kg depending on the type of quick release. When operating the Quick Release, it is recommended that the Quick
Release is activated all the way down.
Mechanical spline:
The splines functions so that the actuator can only push, not pull. During pull in the actuator, the inner tube is lifted off the thread bush, and the
actuator can therefore never pull a load, only push. See figure 8.
Functional test of mechanical splines:
When the piston rod is at the innermost position, it must be possible to pull it out manually to its full travel length and to press it in again without
much resistance and without using the motor. If this is not possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.

Warning
• If the actuator does not work as described above, the risk of injury due to squeezing can arise. Therefore, the actuator must immediately be sent
for service at the nearest, authorised LINAK workshop.
• The actuator must not be used in pull applications when the Quick Release is activated, as the risk of personal injury can arise.
• Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• Bowden cable cover must click twice, in order to be locked sufficiently
• Do not sideload the actuator
• Inspect the actuator minimum once a year for wear and jarring sound
• If an LA31 is used in an application where there are repeated dynamic (push/pull) movements in the area 2000 – 4000 N, then it is necessary to
contact LINAK A/S in order to make a correct specification of the actuator. Repeated push/pull movements cause extra strain to the actuator and
can give safety considerations, the consequence being possible damage to the actuator.
LA31 actuators for patient hoists are marked with a label to ensure the user is aware that it is not permitted to handle the patient hoist
by pulling the actuator or otherwise expose it to side forces.
LA31 with mechanical end stop - a first failure safe option:
In many applications our customers have approvals according to EN 60601-1.
The typical applications can be beds, massage couches etc.
In the norm, EN 60601-1, it is mentioned that the application must be first failure safe.
The manufacturer is responsible for making a risk analysis in order to check this. If a risk is identified it is the manufacturer of the application who
makes sure that the risk is eliminated.
Normally the result of this risk analysis will state that the end stop switch in the LA31 would be questioned: Is this switch first failure safe?
The answer to this will be: No, a switch cannot be first failure safe. - In practical life we have discovered only very few defect switches.
Ask the customer: - What was the result of your risk analysis when you achieved the EN 60601-1 approval on your application?
There are several ways that an application can be made first failure safe:
• Use a mechanical stop in the application
• Use of a mechanical end stop in LA31 - is a possible option.
• Use an SLS (safety limit switch) in connection with the actuator.
• As a special solution we can offer LA31 with mechanical end stop with the same installation dimension as a standard LA31.
Contact LINAK A/S for further information if you need this solution.
Recommendations
• LA31 with brake. An LA31 brake in a push application brakes actively when the actuator moves in an inward direction. The same applies to an
actuator mounted with a brake in a pull direction. It brakes in an outward direction. Under this condition the standard motor uses up to 4 Amp.
and the fast motor uses up to 6 Amp. (Measured after 5 cycles at normal room temperature).
Therefore if the LA31 with brake is used together with a CB7 it is important that the current cut-off limit of the control box is higher than the used
Amp. i.e. not lower than 4 Amp.
LA31 with brake cannot be combined with CB9/CB7 with emergency lowering. For all LA31 actuators with brake self-locking ability up to max.
load it is only possible in one direction: push or pull.
• The LA31 actuator must not be exposed to more than 4000 N in pull. In applications where misalignments may occur the normal back fixture can
take max. 1500 N in pull whereas the flexible back fixture can take up to 4000 N in pull.
The actuator must be mounted at right angles (90º) to it is fixing/load (max.1.5º deviation)
• LA31 actuators with protection class IPX6 must be mounted with the screw holes mounted facing downwards.
To ensure that any water remaining from cleaning / washing is not collected in the screw holes.
Max. load and safety factor of 2.5 according to EN60601-1:
• 6000 N is only possible from S = 0 - 250 mm stroke
• Only max. load of 4000N from S = 250 - 350 mm stroke. See details on later pages.
• Stroke above S> 350 mm is to be treated as a special article, please contact LINAK A/S.
If electrical end stop fails to function the actuator will continue to retract or extend until mechanical end stop is reached.
The application of the customer must be able to obtain or withstand an actuator with failing electrical end stop.
Minimum length of actuator reaching mechanical end stop: nominal BID - 7 mm.
Maximum length of actuator reaching mechanical end stop: nominal BID + nominal SL + increase + 7 mm.
With QR types A and B, when operating the QR function the QR must be activated all the way down. Otherwise the QR will no longer function.

Freewheeling of piston rod
All LA32 actuators with freewheeling as well as with quick release have the designation W on the label.
The function causes the following:
• The piston rod can be pulled out with a thrust of approx. 300 N and it remains in the new position without declutching.
• The actuator cannot pull, but only push.
Functional test:
It must be possible to pull the piston rod out with a thrust of approx. 300 N and it must remain in the new position without releasing. If this is not
possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.

• Release of the QR is only possible with a Bowden cable release force 25–60 N.
• The piston rod eyes are “crimped” in place and cannot be screwed loose.
• Piston rods without eyes have not been tested
• LA32 with quick release and freewheeling function must not be sold to new products

The splines function so that the actuator can only push, not pull. During pull in the actuator, the inner tube is lifted off the thread bush, and the
actuator can therefore never pull a load, only push. See figure 8.
Functional test of mechanical splines:
When the piston rod is at the innermost position, it must be possible to pull it out manually to its full travel length and to press it in again without
much resistance and without using the motor. If this is not possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.
Electrical splines:
In the rear fixture on the actuator, a microswitch is fitted, which turns off the motor, if the actuator is exposed to pull forces.
Functional test of electrical splines
When the actuator is correctly fixed/mounted, the inward movement of the piston must stop, when the actuator is pulled or the movement is blocked,
so that the back fixture is not put under undue stress/tension. For mounting, see Figure 7.
Quick release
When the quick release arm, see Figure 9, is turned counter clockwise approx. 75° and fixed here, the piston rod is released and can now be
pressed in to its innermost position or pulled out to its outermost position. When the quick release arm is released, the arm turns back and the
actuator functions normally again. The cable must not be tight.
Warning
• If the actuator does not work as described above, the risk of injury due to squeezing can arise. Therefore, the actuator must immediately be sent
for service at the nearest, authorised LINAK workshop.
• The actuator must not be used in pull applications when the quick release is activated, as the risk of personal injury can arise.
• Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.
Options:
• Mechanical spline: When using the actuator in a vertical position, the force needed to activate the mechanical spline is maximum 60 N + the
weight of the application. To reengage the spline function, a force of maximum 60N is needed. Same installation dim. as standard actuator.
• A modified Bowden cable holder is available (as a special article), with better cable alignment and improved guidance of the cables.
• Electric spline: When using the actuator in a vertical position, the force needed to activate the electric spline is maximum 100 N + the weight
of the application. To reengage the spline function, a force of maximum 100 N is needed.
Usage:
• Duty cycle: 2/18 – 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use

for LA34 24V zinc and composite versions.
LA34 is a technological state-of-the-art actuator that, due to its innovative construction
can push up to 10,000 N at a speed of 5 mm/sec. and with a current consumption of
approx. 7 Amp. The strong LA34 actuator is made in a low weight composite material.
Its compact design, the outstanding performance and a wide range of safety options
makes LA34 the right choice for a variety of medical and industrial applications.
Reed-switch:
The Reed-switch gives a number of pulses for each rotation of the motor. These pulses

Recommendations
• Power supply without current cut-off can cause serious damage to the actuator if mechanical stop is encountered or the actuator movement is
blocked in another way.
• LINAK control boxes are designed so that they will short-circuit the motor terminals (poles) of the actuator(s) when the actuator(s) are not running.
This solution gives the actuator(s) a higher self-locking ability. If the actuator(s) are not connected to a LINAK control box the terminals of the
motor must be short-circuited to achieve the self-locking ability of the actuator.

Page 46 of 148
Warning
An LA34 actuator is not designed for repeated dynamic push-to-pull movements. This cause extra strain to the actuator and can give
safety considerations, the consequence being possible damage to the actuator. Therefore, if repeated dynamic push-to-pull movements are
essential for the application, perform tests to validate the performance and use a steel piston rod eye (contact LINAK A/S).
LA34 actuators for patient hoists are marked with a label to ensure the user is aware that it is not permitted to handle the patient
hoist by pulling the actuator or otherwise expose it to side forces.
Tests show that uneven running can occur when retracting the LA34 composite actuator with a low load below 500N.
This has no impact on the safety of the actuator and is caused by internal frictions.
If the LA34 actuator is used in connection with a non-LINAK power supply the system must be equipped with current trip cut-off.
Adjustment of the installation dimension N
As standard the installation dimension on the LA34 actuator can be manually adjusted by +4/-0 mm (not possible for mechanical splines).
The adjustment of the installation dimension must only be made without use of tools only, or hand). It is not allowed to use tools to adjust the
installation dimension of the LA34 actuator as there is a risk that the inner tube may be unscrewed.
Hall
The Hall principle is very similar to the Reed principle. It is a control box, which based on Hall signals, can decide whether the actuator runs out or in.
Hall, however, can detect whether the actuator runs in or out. The number of pulses is like Reed. Hall and Reed are placed opposite the potentiometer
on the actuator’s worm wheel. Therefore, it is not suitable for use in quick release /free wheelingactuators. see figure 10.
Potentiometer
The potentiometer function is mechanically attached to the spindle and registers the number of spindle revolutions. The signal from the potentiometer
is measured in Ohm, where the lowest value is measured when the actuator has been run into inward switch stop. The potentiometer is a 10-turn
and therefore it is dependent on the stroke length/spindle pitch. see figure 6.5
Mechanical spline:
The splines function so that the actuator can only push, not pull. During pull in the actuator, the inner tube is lifted off the thread bush, and the
actuator can therefore never pull a load, only push. See Figure 8.
Functional test of mechanical splines:
When the piston rod is at the innermost position, it must be possible to pull it out manually to its full travel length and to press it in again. When
used in a vertical position the force needed to activate the mechanical spline is maximum 60N + the weight of the application. To reengage the
spline function, a force of maximum 60 N is needed. If this is not possible, contact your nearest LINAK dealer.
Electrical splines:
In the rear fixture on the actuator, a microswitch is fitted, which turns off the motor, if the actuator is exposed to pull forces.
Functional test of electrical splines
It is important that the actuator is correctly fixed with regard to the section on page 11. For mounting, see Figure 7.
When the actuator is correctly fixed/mounted, the inward movement of the piston must stop, when the actuator is pulled or the movement is blocked,
so that the back fixture is not put under undue stress/tension.
Quick Release
LA34 (34xxxF/H) is equipped with a function which permits operation of the actuator should the power source fail. Condition for functioning: the
actuator must be loaded in push direction (LA34xxxF) or pull direction (LA34xxxsH).
Warning
• If the actuator does not work as described above, the risk of injury due to squeezing can arise. Therefore, the actuator must be sent immediately
for service at the nearest, authorised LINAK workshop.
• The actuator must not be used in pull applications when the Quick Release is activated, as the risk of personal injury can arise.
• Do only use the actuator within specified working limits.
Activation of Quick Release
Pull the release handle in the direction of the piston rod eye (outwards), the harder you pull the button the quicker the actuator runs down.
When releasing the button the emergency lowering stops immediately. The emergency lowering is activated as long as the load on the actuator is
above 100-150 kg. The actuator is ready for normal use when the emergency lowering is finished.
Safety device regarding functional failure of the nut (Safety nut):
The LA34 has a built-in safety nut in push as standard and is available with a safety nut in pull as an option. Actuators with safety nut in push can
only function when used in push applications. The safety nut comes into operation should the main nut fail.
Afterwards it is only possible to drive the actuator into the innermost position. Safety nut in pull is for pull applications and works the opposite way
as described above. Thereafter, the actuator will not function any more and must be sent for service.
Built-in end-stop circuit
In the actuators mentioned the end-stop switch is part of the actuator construction. Each time the actuator reaches end-stop position, the switch is
activated and the current is cut off.
![](asset-2f.png)
Page 47 of 148
Recommendations
• Power supply without current cut-off can cause serious damage to the actuator if a mechanical stop is encountered or the actuator movement is
blocked in another way.

Instruction concerning the turning of the piston rod eye
When mounting and taking into use, it is not permitted to turn the piston rod eye several times.
In cases where the eye is not positioned correctly, the eye must be screwed to its bottom position
(1) and then maximum half a turn outwards again (2).
Mounting of the quick release cable:
Open the quick release lid using a flat-head
screwdriver. Push and twist in release hole.
Mount the cable in one of the assigned cable mounting
holes. For dual release grips, use both holes.
Place cable collar in groove.
Adjust the cable with nut and make sure that the
quick release is functional.
After closing the lid, the quick release is ready to
be used.
Force required to operate the quick release is approximately:
- 35 N at 750 N load
- 60 N at 4000 N load
Travel of cable:
- travel until quick release approx. 15 mm
- maximum travel to endstop approx. 23 mm
The customer application design must ensure that the quick release cable cannot be pulled the full travel-to-end-stop with excessive pull force.
This is to protect the quick release unit.
When operating the quick release function, the quick release must be activated all the way down and not stopped halfway.
Mounting bracket instructions
To avoid damage to the actuator, it is important that the acutator drives to the application endstop
position and continues to operate in the groove until it activates the electric actuator endstop.
To avoid accumulated water inside the quick release lid (see illustration to the right) it is
recommended not to mount the LA40 quick release actuator with the lid in downward position.

Recommendations
• The actuator is not suitable for outdoor applications
• Power supply without current cut-off can cause serious damage to the actuator if a mechanical stop is encountered or the actuator movement is
blocked in another way.
• If there is a risk of “pull forces” in the application, the actuator must be equipped with electrical spline to avoid damage in pull.
• If the actuator is operated without load (e.g. loose on a table) the electrical spline can activate and the actuator cannot run in an inwards direction.
Push the back fixture and the actuator can be operated again.
• Connection bolts must be dimensioned so that they have the necessary strength in order to obtain the minimum safety factor according to the
requirements of the authorities.
• The actuator must not be subject to a side load, as this can cause bending. It is also for this reason that the actuator should not be used as a handle,
e.g pulling a patient hoist sideways.
• The actuator must not be subject to off centre loading, as this can damage the actuator.
• The actuator must not be subject to impact, or any form of stress to the casing.
• The actuator must not be subject to overload, as this can reduce the lifetime of the actutor and in the worst case cause damage to the actuator.
• The actuator must not be used in pull applications, as this can cause collapse.
• Only use the actuator within the specified working limits.
• It is recommended that the actuator is serviced according to the relevant national norms for the applications in which the actuator is used.
• Connection bolts and brackets are to be inspected in connection with service, and must be replaced if there are signs of wear.
• The safety function: Electrical Spline, should be checked in connection with service. The function is checked by applying a straight pull, of max. 100 N,

by pulling the actuator or otherwise expose it to side forces.
Warnings
It is not allowed to use tools to adjust the installation dimension of the LA43 actuator as there is a risk that the inner tube may be
unscrewed.
Self-locking ability
• LINAK control boxes are designed so that they will short-circuit the motor terminals (poles) of the actuator(s), when the actuator(s) are not
running. This solution gives the actuator(s) a higher self-locking ability. If the actuator(s) are not connected to a LINAK control box, the terminals of
the motor must be short-circuited to achieve the self-locking ability of the actuator.

4. Information on specific columns
The BB3 3-part telescopic actuator is the ideal choice for vertical lift of beds where
design and easy integration in the customer’s guidance ensures optimum freedom of
design.
The BB3 is a 3-part telescopic actuator designed to meet EN 1970 for care beds, which
demands an adjustment range from 350 mm up to 750 mm.
Reed-switch:
The Reed-switch gives a number of pulses for each rotation of the motor. These pulses
are used to calculate the piston rod’s position as well as to control several actuators
running in parallel.
Your nearest LINAK dealer can inform you of the number of pulses per stroke length.
Regarding reed-switch connection, see Figure 6.10.
• The columns must be securely mounted before operation, no rotation must be possible
• The motor housing must be mounted uppermost.
Warning
Do only use the column within specified working limits.
The BL1 is a 3-part lifting column designed to be used for example in Hospital beds,
Nursing Home beds, Treatment chairs, Couches and Dental chairs.
The lifting column is compact and has a long stroke length. The 3-part guidance
enables an overlap between the individual profiles, which ensures a high degree of
stability.
The lifting column has an open spindle actuator with a chain drive inside which is
practically noiseless.
Important:
If the actuator(s) are not connected to a LINAK control box, the terminals of the motor must be short circuited to guarantee the self-
locking ability of the actuator.
Usage:
• Duty cycle: 10%, 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes
not in use
• Usage temperature: + 5°C to + 40°C
• Storage temperature: Max 50°C
• Compatibility: CB6 OBL, CB6 OBF, CB16 and CB20
• Approvals: IEC60601-1:2005 3rd ed., ANSI / AAMI ES60601-1:2005,
3rd edition, CAN / CSA-22.2 No 60601-1:2008
Recommendations
• Please follow the important BL1 mounting guidelines.
• Max. storage temperatures: +50°C.
• BL1 is for use in push applications, cable outlet from smallest profile (top) or biggest profile (bottom). See top and bottom plate dimensions.
• When washing according to IPX6 parameters, it is not allowed to splash water directly onto the plastic frames between the profiles.
Direct splashing is only permitted on the aluminium profiles.
...to be continued
Warnings
• BL1 is heavy (9.8 kg) To avoid personal injury, DO NOT DROP !
• Do not adjust anything during movement, can cause personal injury !
• LINAK recommends using a safety nut in medical applications !
• A broken chain causes a drop of half the length of actual stroke. Therefore do not overload !
• The BL1 is designed for use in push applications, dynamic “Pull forces” can result in damage to the column and cause collapse of the application.
• Do not loosen any screws on the BL1, this can cause collapse of the column !
• LINAK recommends making regular measurement of Class 1 protective ground conductivity in the application to avoid a disconnected grounding cable.
Worn out or defect parts must be replaced.

BL1 Mounting guidelines:
• BL1 is for use in push applications, and can be mounted in both directions (smallest profile down, or up).
Note: The cable outlet can be positioned at the top (smallest profile). If the option with integrated cable is chosen, the cable outlet can
also be positioned at the bottom (biggest profile).
• It is very simple to mount the BL1 in the application using the 4 mounting holes in both endplates.
• Use 4 self-tapping screws, in each end, for mounting to the application. Use EJOT PT type DG Ø8, screw depth must be min. 30 mm in
aluminium profile. Screw torque: 15 - 17 Nm.
• If the column has been loosened from the application, it is very important that the self-tapping screws are mounted in the same thread,
to ensure the same strength in the thread. Therefore we recommend that the screws are loosened no more than 1 or 2 times.

The mounting plate in the application must cover the entire top plate of the BL1 and be strong enough to carry the load.
Remember to secure the cable mounted in the top of the column to the application, so that it cannot be pulled out of the column.
We recommend to use LINAK Cable:
• Lock kit for BL1 with motor cable: 0808040
• Lock kit for BL1 with hand control cable through: 0808046
Use only the screws included in the kit. Screw torque: 2.7 Nm.
Electro Static Discharges!
There is no electrical connection through the length of the BL1 column. Therefore, to avoid ESD issues, consider external potential
alignment between the top and bottom of the bed frame.
To connect for further earth wiring in the application, use an appropriate ø8mm cable shoe under one of the 8mm screws at both the top
plate and the bottom plate.
Remember to mount the blind plugs in the top plate if the motor cable is connected from the bottom plate to ensure the IPX6 protection.

• The BL4 is heavy (8.2 kg) To avoid personal injury, DO NOT DROP!
• Do not adjust anything during movement, can cause personal injury!
• The BL4 is designed for use in push applications, dynamic “Pull forces” can result in damage to the column and cause collapse of the application.
• Do not loosen any screws on the BL4, this can cause collapse of the column!
• IPX6 washable versions must not be dismantled and then rebuilt again without the motor housing being changed in order to ensure the washability.
• There must be at least 4 hours between each washing cycle to allow the BL4 to resume normal temperature.
Recommendations
• Max. storage temperatures: +50°C.
• BL4 is for use in push applications only and only mounted with the motor housing uppermost.
• Actuators using “buffer” end-stop principle are not compatible with BL4 and CB9 systems.
• If the column is driven in end-position (end-stop switches in the actuator will be activated ) and if the handset is kept activated you will in some cases,
depending on the column load, see that the actuator starts and stops as long as the handset is activated.
Recommendations with washable versions:
• IPX6 Washable versions must not be dismantled and then be rebuilt again without the motor housing being changed in order to ensure the washability.
• There must be at least 4 hours between each washing cycle to allow the BL4 to resume normal temperature.

• The mounting plate in the application must cover the entire top plate of the BL1 and be strong enough to carry the load.
• It is recommended that all 4 holes in the motor housing are used to fasten the BL4 to the application.
• The screws must provide a secure fixing e.g. as with self-locking.
• Remember to secure the cable to the housing with a cable tie. Use the fixing eye next to the connector socket.
On the BL4 cables, clip sleeve are mounted, they need to be removed.
• Electro Static Discharges!
Be aware that there is no electrical connection through the length of the BL4 column. Therefore, to avoid ESD issues, consider external
potential alignment between the top and bottom of the bed frame.
BL4 Mounting guidelines:
• The BL4 must always be mounted vertically before operation and always vertical with the motor housing uppermost. (Otherwise, the
internal end-stop switch system can break due to rotation).
• Both the motor housing and the bottom tube (the one with the largest diameter) must be secured in the application in such a way that no
rotation can occur.
• It is recommended to monitor the current consumption in order to determine the necessary tensioning force for the mounting bracket.
If the current consumption rises the BL4 has been tightened too much.
When mounting more than one BL4 you need to consider the fixation:

LINAK mounting bracket part no.: 0673003-A
The reason why it is important only to fix one column is that the
columns will not move exactly in parallel – even if you have positioning
such as hall.
If more than one column is fixed, it can lead to dangerous situations.
If you have trend/antitrend function in your application you need to mount
one or more of the BL4s with a slider.
Having sliders prevents the column from bending like illustrated below.
Mounting guidelines for the BL4 bracket, supplied by LINAK, part no. 0673003:
Mounting the bracket in the application:
• The bracket must be mounted to an even abutting plate in the application by using the 2 slits.
• In each slit at least 3 bolts must be mounted. Type M8 8.8.
• Tightening moment must be 22.7 - 26.1 Nm.
• The 3 bolts must be placed in the same height as the 3 holes.
Mounting of the BL4 into the bracket:
• The BL4 must be fi tted in the bracket after mounting the bracket to the application.
• 3 bolts and nuts must be mounted in the 3 holes. Type M6 8.8
• Tightening moment must be 10.3 ± 0.3 Nm
The mounting points must be re-tightened at least once a year with the above specified moments.

The LC2 column is an update of the LP2 programme. It has an improved
“twisting” stability and end-stop switches as standard.
The column is designed to be used in a vertical position and only for
lifting purposes. It is not possible to use the column in any kind of “pull”
application.
Depending on the application, the LC2 can be operated either as a single column or several columns in a parallel system by choosing a control box
with microprocessor.
It is designed to provide vertical lifting (push only) where simultaneous bending and torsion moments may occur.
Warning
Do only use the column within specified working limits.
The LP2 lifting column is the ideal choice for duties such as height adjustment on computer workstations, work benches, or a wide selection of other duties.
• There are mounting holes in the end plates.
• The largest profile must be mounted uppermost.
The LP2 range of vertical lifting columns is ideal where vertical positioning of
substantial loads is required.
The design allows the LP2 range to be built in a complete motion control system
simply by adding a suitable LINAK control box and handset.
Advanced design and high quality construction allows the column to be operated
either as single or parallel with up to a maximum of four units and/or with a memory
function.
Warning
Do only use the column within specified working limits.
Warning
Ensure a safe connection between column and application
Warning
Side mounting bracket screws: use the correct torque on the side mounting bracket screws.
Warning
The column can not be used in pull

The LP3 is developed for vertical lifts and can resist a bending moment by virtue of the
effective telescopic system.
The lifting column is designed for applications where a small installation dimension is
requested without compromising the lifting capacity.
The LP3 is characterised by having a lower installation dimension proportional to the
stroke length compared to the LP2. The LP3 can also attain a higher speed than the
LP2.
The telescopic column is compatible with LINAK’s control boxes and can run individually; as 2 x LP3 parallel and/or with memory.
The LP3 is the perfect choice for height adjustment on dental, gynaecologist, and wheelchairs as well as for operating, office and working benches etc.
The column can only be loaded with the maximum bending moment over the first 80% of the stroke. The maximum bending moment will
be reduced to 50%.
The column must be mounted with the largest profile uppermost!
• There are mounting holes in the end plates.
• The largest profile must be mounted uppermost.

5. Information on specific control boxes
Please be aware if the control box is not visible after mounting, all information regarding limitation of use shall be marked on the end product.
Output voltage
On control boxes connected to the mains the voltage of the actuator output is dependent on load, and the no-load voltage can reach 50 V.
Control boxes connected to a battery can reach a voltage of 30 V during charging and no load.
For all control boxes with battery
Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are being charged 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong the lifetime
of the batteries.
Warning
Please observe the following maintenance, replacement, and disposal requirements to ensure a safe and reliable operation.
Maintenance of batteries
The batteries are to be replaced after 4 years at the latest. Perhaps earlier, dependent on the pattern of use. Frequent and high-powered discharges
reduce the battery life. For an optimum lifetime the product must be connected to the mains voltage as often as possible. It is recommended that the
batteries are to be charged at least every 3rd month - otherwise will the batteries have reduced capacity due to self-discharge. It is recommended to
test the battery function at least once every year.
Replacement of batteries
The batteries must only be replaced by the same type of batteries or mechanical and electrical equivalent types.The batteries must be new or
maintained by means of charging at least every 3rd month. The batteries, which make a set, must be supplied with identical production codes.
Mismatching of production codes may lead to a severely reduced life time expectancy.
Before mounting ensure that the battery set is correctly connected, compare with the drawing in the battery room, and check that no connectors are loose.
Warnings
From the factory the battery room is hermatically separated from the electronics room. When replacing the batteries this separation must
not be damaged or modified as this may allow penetration of battery gas into the electronics room with risk of explosion.
When replacing batteries in waterproof products (IPX5 and IPX6) precautions must be taken that the sealing material (silicone ring or joint
filler) is not damaged and that it is correctly placed in the groove. Hereafter the screws in the cover are to be fastened with appox. 1 Nm.
If the seal is damaged it must be replaced by a new silicone string (LINAK article no. 0008004 for a roll of 100 metres).
Disposal
The batteries, which are lead-acid batteries, can be returned to LINAK or disposed in the same way as car batteries.
Warnings
The battery room is supplied with ventilation that ensures correct and necessary airing of the battery room. This airing must not be
blocked or covered as a positive pressure may occur with risk of explosion.
If the product has been exposed to mechanical overload (lost on the floor, collision/squeezing in the application or a powerful stroke) the
product must be sent to an authorised workshop for control of the hermetic separation between the battery and electronics rooms.
Using control boxes with speed control
The common way of carrying out a speed control of the actuators is by using PWM, switching the motor on/off at a high frequency.
In rare cases, while switching the motor on/off, we have experienced that the coupling between the actuators and application frame and ground is
too high, thus generating a slight current noise which exceeds the allowable EMC limits. The current in question is extremely low and is in no way
related to any personal or patient risk.
The coupling is defined by the mechanical layout of the application, and no real guidelines can be given. Using plastic bushings or similar can
improve the application.
If an application faces this issue, it can easily by solved by connecting ground of the CB box to the application frame-, through a cable with built in
serial connection of a resistor and a capacitor.
The EMC test defined in IEC60601-1-2, applicable for all medical products, will show if this is an issue concerning the specific applications.
If you need more information or have any issues on this subject, please contact your LINAK A/S Sales contact.
Design criteria when using a customized CB
When using a customized CB together with a LINAK actuator, the interface connection between the CB vs. Actuator as well as the purpose of the
actuator (with or without feedback) must be considered.
Actuators with feedback
E.g. potentiometer solutions have certain technological characteristics due to the design that might cause quality issues if used outside the
specification range.
The connection interface
The connection interface is not only the compatibility of the plug types used, e.g. male mini-fit to female mini-fit plug type.
It is also considering the contact transition, i.e. the cable as well as the cable connector, the connecting plug, the material surface of the plug PIN, the
soldering of the PCB plug connector etc.
When however using a LINAK Actuator with feedback AND having a bad connection interface towards a Customized CB
– LINAK only guarantees the feedback voltage to be within 500 mV (+/- 250 mV).

Recommendations
• Note that the common current limit on CA30-CA40 is 8 A and may cause overload on certain actuator types.
• Be aware that the channel configuration has been changed compared to existing analogue control boxes.
• To avoid unintended movement like trend or antitrend, LINAK recommends the application manufacturer to instruct the end user to avoid that
multiple keys are pressed simultaneously.
Battery Operation
CA30 and CA40 are only compatible with batteries with built-in charger, BA19 or BA21.
EOP- electronic overload protection
Remark - common/individual current measurement.
As default, the current cut-off is set to 8 A per channel. The total current cut-off default setting is 8 A. If more channels run at the same time, 8 A are
distributed equally.
Warnings
• Due to the half-bridge technology, pressing multiple keys simultaneously might cause an unintended trend or antitrend movement
(application environment 4).
See illustrations:

Mounting of cables and cable lock:
The control boxes CA30/CA40 have a uniquely designed cable lid. The lid also works as an integrated cable lock when closed.
1) Mount cable plugs in control box
2) Close lid until lock snaps into place (see arrows)
To allow free access to the cables, the lid has a rest position when completely opened.
It is possible to remove the lid by lifting it a few degrees and pulling it away from the housing under tight mounting conditions.

The control box CB6 has been specially developed for use together with LA27/LA40 actuator in
the care and rehab industry.
The control box is designed to be mounted on the actuator LA27/LA40 as with the CB9 and
LA31 system.
The CB6 control box has a LED power ON indicator, detachable mains cable and strain relief for
all cables.
The control box CB6 communicates with the LA27/LA40 actuator by means of the built-in end
stop signal switches in the actuator. Due to the signal switches the power to the motor will be
cut off in the control box and not in the actuator.
Recommendations
• Be aware of the handset configuration (e.g. CH1, 2, 3 should be CH1, 3, 4).
• Same cables variants as for CB9 CARELINE and CB12.
Connecting the system:
• Do not connect the mains cable until all actuators have been connected to the control box.
• Start by connecting the handset to the control box. The connection at the control box is marked with “HB”.
• Connect the different actuators to the different channels on the control box. Each channel is marked with a number (e.g. “1”, “2”, “3”....).
• Check that all plugs are well connected and firm pushed into the connection plug.
Due to the fact that LINAK control boxes are designed for a high IP degree, a firm force can be required.
• CONNECT the mains and turn on the power!
• Finally, connect the battery (BA18) with special T-cable or normal battery cable depending on the specified system.
• The actuators can now be operated by pushing a button on the handset. Use only one button at a time.
If the control box is equipped with special software, an initialising process might be necessary. This process is described in the software specification.
Attention should be paid to the following:
• Control boxes must only be connected to the mains voltage specified on the label.
• The control box must be connected in such a way that the cables are not trapped, exposed to tension or sharp objects, when the application is
moved in different directions.

Usage:
• Duty cycle: 2/18; 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use
• CB6 is approved according to EN60601-1 / UL60601-1
• The CB6 can only be combined with LA27/LA40 and HB30 / HB70 / HL70 / HB80 and HL80.

The CB6 OBMe is a powerful control box with switch mode power supply typically used for
applications like hospital beds, couches/tables for treatment and examination and other medical
applications. The universal input voltage makes the control box adaptable to the world-wide market
irrespective of the input voltage.
Approvals:
CB6 OBMe is approved according to UL60601-1 and EN60601-1.
Possible combinations.
CB6 OBMe is meant for use with:
LA27 std. motor (cable type ‘B’),
LA27 std. motor (cable type “A” = encoded) with / without Hall
LA31 std. / fast motor with / without Hall,
LA34 std. / small / fast motor with / without Hall (fast motor not max. load),
LA44 std. / fast motor with / without Hall (fast motor not max. load),
BL1 (only with +35% transformer type) with / without Hall,
HB7x, HL7x, HB8x, FSE/FSL, FS2, MJB, DJB, ACO, ACC, ACK.
CB6 OBMe – with transformer has been approved for CLASS I operation incl. CLASS I cables
(without pigtail for earth).
CB6 OBMe – with SMPS is not approved for CLASS I operation, basically because of the design of
the housing. However the PCB contains 2 x fuses (phase, neutral) as required for CLASS I operation.
If a mains cable with pig tail is applied CLASS I is obtained – however the CB label will indicate
CLASS II! At the end of the day the OEM user applying for an application approval must clarify if
such a solution is accepted by the used testhouse.
Recommendations:
Battery Operation:
• If the battery voltage is at ‘low level’ a battery alarm beeps constantly by activating the HB/ACx.
Low level means that battery charging is necessary to maintain the best possible lifetime.
Low level battery limit corresponds to approx. 19 V (+/- 5%).
• If the battery voltage is at ‘critical level’ the battery alarm function shuts down all operation immediately.
If trying to operate the system anyway, the battery could become deeply drained or the actuator system could be damaged.
When at critical battery level there is a risk that the processor will incorrectly monitor end of stroke. Crashing the actuator could be a result.
Critical level limit corresponds to approx. 17.5 V (+/- 5%).
• If battery back-up is applied it only commences battery charging when it is connected to the mains.
• A battery stored at 25° C has to be recharged every 6 - 7 months.
• Prior to first use of LINAK batteries, please make sure that they are charged for 24 hours in order to reach proper function and prolong
the lifetime of the batteries.
• The longest lifetime is obtained when the battery is fully charged.
If Backlight supported HB is used:
• When CB6 OBMe is powered by mains voltage:
- If an HB button is activated the backlight illuminates fully. When the HB button is released the light is dimmed again after approx. 10 - 15 sec.
Backlight turns completely off after 2 min.
Exception: While charging the HB backlight will stay on dimmed until charging is finished.
• When CB6 OBMe is powered by battery:
- If a HB button is activated the backlight illuminates fully. When the HB button is released the light is dimmed again after approx. 10 - 15 sec.
Backlight turns completely off after 2 min.
1st Failure safe monitoring
Is made in two ways on the OBMe platform. It may be difficult to observe the LED status (hardware) if CB6 OBMe is placed under
a bed, therefore it is now monitored by software as well.
• CB6 OBMe is equipped with a 1st Failure safe indication controlled by HW (power request). At normal operation (no failure observed) the power
LED turns yellow when a HB button is activated.
3. CB6 OBMe (MEDLINE® CARELINE®)
![](asset-49.png)
Page 73 of 148
If the LED has turned yellow AND the HB has NOT been activated, it indicates that a failure has occurred (1st Failure).
NOTE: Even though the LED illuminates yellow before the HB is activated it is possible to operate the CB6, however the 1st.
Failure is somehow still in the CB and must be removed to prevent a further failure causing a hazardous failure to happen.
• To meet the safety requirements the device must have a dual switch safety concept. Further information about OpenBus™ safety concepts please
contact your local LINAK.
• The safety function must be monitored and this monitoring is implemented in the SW. In case of a failure (fatal error) any further operation of any
channels are prevented. At a fatal error the CB6 OBMe responds with the following information:
• Failure indication:
all ACO LED’s are blinking
The CB6 OBMe buzzer beeps shortly if a handset is activated
The error can be reset by activating H0 and H1 OR H10 and H11 on a handset.
Compatibility – CB6 OBMe:
• CB6 OBMe supports both digital and analog encoded signals.
The CB6P2 platform is introduced to obtain a powerful and optimised solution to customers looking
for existing analogue input systems. It is based on OpenBus™ technology, but to meet existing
analogue systems it has an analogue input similar to HB40 and therefore OpenBus™ accessories
cannot be connected.
Combination Overview
CB6P2 is meant for use with:
LA27 std. motor with Hall (cable type ‘A’)
LA27 std. motor (cable type ‘B’),
LA31 std. / fast motor with / without Hall,
LA34 std. / small / fast motor with / without Hall (fast motor not max. load),
LA40 std. motor with / without Hall
LA44 std. / fast motor with / without Hall (fast motor not max. load),
BL1 (only with 270W transformer type) with / without Hall, HB7x, HL7x, HB8x, ACL/ACM/ACP
(HB40-like)

Precautions:
Thermal protection:
OBF only
The CB is equipped with a thermal protection to avoid thermal overload of the FET transistors used to control the acuators.
When triggering the thermal protection all movement of the actuators will stop and the buzzer will sound for 5 seconds constantly. The 5 second
alarm will be reinitiated each time the handset/ACP or similar is activated until the CB is cooled down enough to allow a movement again
The thermal monitoring system monitors a temperature rise and not an absolute temperature. The monitoring system has been designed to operate
up to an ambient temperature of 40 degrees. If the CB is exposed to a temperature higher than 40 degrees for several hours while powered it will
adapt to this temperature. In this case there is a risk of damaging the FET transistors without triggering the thermal protection.
At first power up, after programming a new SW into the CB, the ‘temperature reference value’, used by the thermal monitoring system, will be
automatically initialized. If this is done in a cold area the temperature reference value will be set accordingly and a too early temperature warning
could occur (warning signal is temperature hoot = constant beep)!
After the first power up, the temperature reference value will adapt over time to the surrounding temperature and the adaptation routine happens
every 5 hours (provided the CB is unused and connected to mains). The 5 hour counter (used by the temperature adaptation routine) will be
reinitiated every time a handset/control panel is activated.
We therefore recommend that the CB is resting for min. 5 hours to adapt temperature wise to a ‘normal operating’ temperature, i.e. in the
environment for intended use.
CB6S is part of the LINAK OpenBus™ product range - that provides more flexible solutions no
matter which actuator concept is preferred.

Recommendations
NOTE - HOT PLUGGING
Removing or adding any OpenBus cables is not allowed when the CB is powered by mains supply!
If needed anyway, follow the below procedure:
1. Remove mains and wait 5 sec.
2. Mount or dismount the required cables
If this procedure is NOT followed, it may result in a damaged OpenBus driver circuit.
The risk of a damaged circuit increases if the accessory has a high start current (in rush current).

The current to each actuator is monitored and when this reaches a specified value, the current to that
actuator is cut-off.
As the actuators do not have the same current consumption the cut-off values must also be different.
Therefore it must be specified which actuator is to be connected to which channel:
Warning
In order to avoid injury, the emergency stop should be activated in (all) transport situations.
Recommendations
• Note: max. accumulated power consumption is 10 Amp.
• The measurement is individual for each channel, but if the total current consumption reaches 10 Amp, the CB cuts off the current. The CB and the actuator are
therefore protected via a common measurement.
• External Charger CH01 has to be ordered separately. By use of charger CH01 it is possible to activate the actuators when charging. However, this is not
recommended as it can damage the control box or the charger CH01.
• Battery kit BA0801 has to be ordered separately for versions M, G, H, Q, R (2 channel) and version M (3 channel).
• An external emergency stop device (NC) or short-circuiting connection must be mounted from channel 3 of CB800XXXXN-X0 before connection to allow
proper function and battery charging.
• When using the CB8A with emergency stop button, the stop button must be released before charging batteries.
• Acoustic alarm sounds when batteries are low and recharging should be started. The alarm level corresponds to approx. 17-18 VDC.
• If the CB800XXXXN-X0 option is chosen, An external emergency stop device (NC) or short-circuiting connection must be mounted in channel 3,
before connection to allow proper function and battery charging.
• If the option N for CH3 is chosen, the external emergency stop has to be placed on channel 3, otherwise the CB8A will not work.
The CB8A is a battery powered control box operating up to 3 actuators
individually. One of these channels can be used either as an external
emergency stop device or for battery charging.
Simple design and high quality construction make the CB8A an ideal
control box choice for mains-free operation of beds, chairs, tables and
many other mobile applications.
Usage:
• Duty cycle: Max. 10% or 2 min. in use followed by 18 min. not in use
• Ambient temperatures: + 5o to +4 0o C
• Approvals: IEC60601-1:2005 3rd edition approved ANSI/AAMI, ES60601-1:2005 3rd edition approved.
7. CB8A (MEDLINE® CARELINE® TECHLINE®)
Compared to other LINAK control boxes the CB7 is very small and compact in design.
The CB7 is designed to slide onto an LA31 actuator for easy fitting e.g. in a recliner application
where “mounting” space is limited.
The control box function is divided in two parts. The actual control box CB7, which slides onto the
LA31 actuator and a separate external power supply transformer box TR6 or TR7, which can be wall
mounted or placed on the floor moulding next to the mains.
The control box is only fitted with low voltage electronic components and the connection between
the CB7 and transformer is via a 24 V power cable.

Recommendations
NOTE - HOT PLUGGING
Removing or adding any OpenBus cables are not allowed when the CB is powered by mains supply!
If needed anyway follow the below procedure:
1. Remove mains and wait 5 sec.
2. Mount or dismount the required cables
If this procedure is NOT followed it may result in a damaged OpenBus driver circuit.
The risk of a damaged circuit increases if the accessory has a high start current (in rush current).
NOTE - Use of internal mains signal in software or on OpenBus
Please note when using the internal mains signal on control boxes with SMPS that the mains signal may take up to 6 seconds before disappearing
after mains has been removed.
Battery operation:
BATTERY LEVELS
Battery High: > 20 V - normal
Battery Medium: 18-20 V - alarm
Battery Low: < 18 V - critical

• If the battery voltage is at ‘Medium level’ a battery alarm beeps as long as a key is activated. (Medium level means that battery charging is
necessary to maintain the best possible lifetime).
• If the battery voltage is at ‘Low level’, the battery alarm function shuts down all movement immediately. The OpenBus is still active for
approx. 15 seconds. (If trying to operate the system anyway, the battery could get deep drained or the actuator system could get damaged.
When at low battery level (which is critical), there is a risk that the processor will incorrectly monitor the end of stroke.
Crashing the actuator could be a result.
• The CB16 with battery back-up only commences battery charging when it is connected to the mains.
• For more information about the batteries, please contact LINAK.
Before startup of CB16OBF
Due to the microprocessor in CB16OBF the control box has to be initialised before startup.
Initialisation will in most cases be possible pressing H0 and H1 or H10 and H11 on a handset.
Initialisation depends upon the software description so please obtain a description of the initialisation procedure from your local LINAK dealer.
• If an actuator is replaced, the microprocessor always has to be initialised before use (actuators with reed / hall).
• If re-programmed please ensure that the correct software is used.
Precautions
If backlight supported HB is used:
• When CB16 OBL or OBF is powered by mains voltage:
- At no operation of the HB the backlight in the HB is dimmed.
- If an HB button is activated the backlight illuminates fully.
When the HB button is released the light is dimmed again after approx. 10-15 sec.
• When CB16 OBL or OBF is powered by battery:
- At no operation of the HB theres is no backlight in the HB.
- If an HB button is activated the backlight illuminates fully.
When the HB button is released the backlight turns off.
1st failure safe monitoring:
• Failure indication:
- all ACO LED’s are blinking
- The CB16 buzzer is shortly beeping if a handset is activated
- The error can be reset by activating H0 and H1 OR H10 and H11 on a handset.
Compatibility – CB16 OBL:
• Using actuators with feedback on CB16 OBL are not supported. If used anyway it will not work properly. The reason is that feedback signals
(e.g. Hall signals) is positioned at the same PINS as analogue stop signals - when using no feedback.
CB16OBF SMPS - Actuator combinations and/or customized software
• Due to the high power from the CB16OBF SMPS, it is highly recommended to validate the system to guarantee the lifetime of connected actuators.
Especially when using customized software and/or actuator combinations which do not comply with the LINAK compatibility list - for further
questions please contact your local LINAK contact.

Recommendations
• To avoid that hand control cables short-circuit, LINAK recommends to use an OpenBus system (CO41).
• When the system is overloaded, LINAK recommends to use quick release actuators in the application. These will allow functions to be lowered
manually in case of a CO41 malfunction due to misuse/abuse.
• If the customer has other essential performance than “no unintended movement”, he must consider this in his own risk analysis.
LINAK disclaims any liability.
• If the actuator or the control cable is removed from the control box, the cable lock must be applied. To ensure movement in this case,
LINAK recommends to use quick release actuators in the application.
• If the cable is damaged by pulling, LINAK recommends to make a safe cabling. If movement is an essential performance, LINAK recommends to
apply quick release actuators, for example, to ensure movement.
• If the thermal protection is activated due to current overload when operating multiple actuators and/or excessive duty cycle, the operation must be
kept within the specification. If movement is an essential performance, LINAK recommends to apply quick release actuators, for example,
to ensure movement.
• Sales must request a review of the products according to current cut-off limits.s.
Motor cable
Always use 6-wire cables.
Please note that angled motor cable plugs are required for connection to the control box.
Because of the half-bridge technology used in CO41 there is an interdependence between each half-bridge, CH1 + 2 and CH3 + 4. Half-bridge
connected channels cannot run simultaneously in opposite directions. E.g. running a trend function using CH3 and CH4 will not be possible.
Warnings
• Use EPR or ensure that the user takes care not to squeeze the mains cable.
• Always check correct assembly after mounting and service to ensure that the cable lock is mounted.
(Connectors are usually removed during cleaning)
• Always use approved chemicals with the housing as the plastic may show corrosion caused by some chemicals. As a result water may
accumulate/gather in housing.
• Take special precautions concerning 3rd party interfacing. Please contact LINAK for further information.
• Make a review of all product specifications before system set-up if the current cut-off limit is higher than the maximum allowed
current cut-off for the actuator.
• To avoid cable interruption and actuator defects make a proper cable installation and inspect regularly for wear and damage.
Defective parts must be replaced.
• After service inspection, the application must be tested for correct functionality before it is put into operation to avoid actuator plugs being
mixed during service. Operators must not be inside entrapment area.
• To avoid electrical failure or system disturbance inspect regularly for wear and damage. Defective parts must be replaced.
• Make a proper cable installation to avoid short-circuit cables for handset/controls. Regular inspection must be made for wear and damage.
Defective parts must be replaced.

Recommendations
• To avoid that hand control cables short-circuit, LINAK recommends to use an OpenBusTM system (CO71).
• When the system is overloaded, LINAK recommends to use quick release actuators in the application. These will allow functions to be lowered
manually in case of a CO71 malfunction due to misuse/abuse.
• If the customer has other essential performance than “no unintended movement”, he must consider this in his own risk analysis.
LINAK disclaims any liability.
• If the actuator or the control cable is removed from the control box, the cable lock must be applied. To ensure movement in this case,
LINAK recommends to use quick release actuators in the application.
• If the cable is damaged by pulling, LINAK recommends to make a safe cabling. If movement is an essential performance, LINAK recommends to
apply quick release actuators, for example, to ensure movement.
• If the thermal protection is activated due to current overload when operating multiple actuators and/or excessive duty cycle, the operation must be
kept within the specification. If movement is an essential performance, LINAK recommends to apply quick release actuators, for example, to ensure
movement.
• Sales must request a review of the products according to current cut-off limits.
Motor cable
Always use 6-wire cables.
Please note that angled motor cable plugs are required for connection to the control box.
Warnings
• Use EPR or ensure that the user takes care not to squeeze the mains cable.
• Always check correct assembly after mounting and service to ensure that the cable lock is mounted.
(Connectors are usually removed during cleaning)
• Always use approved chemicals with the housing as the plastic may show corrosion caused by some chemicals. As a result water may
accumulate/gather in housing.
• Take special precautions concerning 3rd party interfacing. Please contact LINAK for further information.
• Make a review of all product specifications before system set-up if the current cut-off limit is higher than the maximum allowed current
cut-off for the actuator.
• To avoid cable interruption and actuator defects make a proper cable installation and inspect regularly for wear and damage.
Defective parts must be replaced.

The FPP is for use with a variety of different bed types and is therefore compatible with control boxes that use
an OpenBus™ interface i.e. CB6S, CB16 and CB20.
Recommendations
• The application manufacturer must insure a proper installation of the FPP in the application. The installation must be convenient for the end-user.
• To ensure proper activation, the lock above the housing must be properly locked by turning it clockwise.
• The application manufacturer must ensure the correct torque to the slotted set screw at the bracket, to ensure a stable positioning of the FPP.
• The application manufacturer must consider the bracket location for the FPP: If the FPP is mounted at a moveable part, it will move and might
touch the patient or parts of the application. If mounted at a fixed part, the patient might move out of range to reach the FPP or he might even be
hit by the FPP.
• The end-user must not apply a torque to the FPP housing exceeding 8 Nm between the flexible arm and the panel.
• The end-user must not bend the FPP arm to a radius smaller than 105 mm.
• The FPP must not be useed as a handle at any time when moving the application.
• The end-user must be informed that the FPP must not be used for other purposes (e.g. table, handle) than intended, i.e. as a Flexible Patient Panel (FPP).
• The end-user must ensure the FPP does not hit items or persons when the application is moved.
Usage:
• Ambient temperature: +5° to +40°
• Approvals: LINAK and UL International DEMKO A/S are currently in the process of certifying
FPP re. UL60601 and EN60601-1.
• Current consumption: 15 mA (Standard versions with 5 no. LED’s (5 LED’s x 2 mA = 10 mA) +
microprocessor 5 mA, total = 15 mA
Mounting instructions:
The FPP is intended for mounting at the head end of a bed so the patient is able to see and operate it with an easy push of a button. After use it can
be moved a short distance away with an easy movement.
The FPP comes with a cable attached. The bottom part of the arm is prepared for mounting inside a bracket - fitting the diameter of the arm.
The bracket is not supplied by LINAK but must be designed and made by the customer. It must fit the dimensions shown. A suggestion to a design is
illustrated on below pictures as well as the dimensions of the parts for fixation.
Possible bracket design.Dimensions lIllustration:
The FPP must be mounted in such a manner that it is secured against rotation. For this purpose the bracket end of the arm has 4 x drilled holes - one
of the 4 holes must be secured via the bracket with a slotted set screw with cone point (pointed screw).
Otherwise it may slide away from the user when operated.

![](asset-74.png)
Page 116 of 148
Mounting
Do not mount the battery upside down.
Please follow the mounting instructions of the control box e.g. CBJ Care or COBO.
Standby mode
When the BAJL Li-Ion is not being used for a longer period - more than a week - or when it is on stock, it enters into a standby mode to save power
and protect the battery from deep discharge.
• Please connect the charger for approx. 15 seconds to exit the standby mode before use.
• There is no audio signal to indicate the standby mode or to indicate exit of standby mode.
After exit of the standby mode
If there is still no power on, the battery needs to be charged.
After charging, the hand control and/or the control box will indicate the battery capacity level again
Deep discharge protection
The BAJL Li-Ion has a deep discharge protection to extend the battery lifetime. The deep discharge protection is activated when the battery is discharged.
• Please connect the charger for approx. 15 seconds to exit the deep discharge mode before use.
If the battery is completely discharged, the charging will be started at a very small rate to protect the battery. This small charging rate is not sufficient
to turn on the light in the charger, and therefore the user may believe that the system has not yet started. Depending on the battery state, it may
take several hours to get to the normal charging state. The orange light of the control box will not be turned on as the operation is analogue. It is
therefore not possible to see that the charging has started, however, only at a low level.
If any of the lithium ion batteries built into LINAK products is found to be defective under warranty, LINAK will provide a new product to the OEM.
LINAK explicitly disclaims all other remedies. LINAK shall not in any event be liable under any circumstances for any special indirect punitive incidental
or consequential damages or losses arising from any incident related to the inherent risk of thermal runaway in the lithium ion cell and any use of
LINAK products. Moreover, LINAK explicitly disclaims lost profits, failure to realise expected savings, any claim against our customer by a third party,
or any other commercial or economic losses of any kind, even if LINAK has been advised of the possibility of such damages or losses.
Transportation
The lithium ion batteries must be packed and transported according to applicable regulations. Always ask your local transportation provider how to
handle the transportation of lithium ion batteries.
Recommendations:
• Do not exceed the storage temperature as it will shorten the lifetime and performance.
• Allow the battery to settle to the temperature specified in the user manual before use or charging.
• Only use correct LINAK charger (CHJ2, CH01 or integrated charger in JUMBO control box).
• Do not exceed the duty cycle as it will shorten the life time and performance.
• BAJL Li-ion is not intended for use in outdoor applications and indoor pool environments.
• If the battery is completely discharged, then recharge the battery before storage.
• Unintentional use of the emergency button, e.g. short activation and deactivation of the emergency button after operating the actuators, can lead
to an error indication of remaining battery capacity. The battery capacity will however be shown correctly approx. 20 seconds after activation of the
emergency button.
• The BAJL goes into sleep mode approximately 20 seconds after the CBJ Care enters into sleep mode. If the CBJ Care is reactivated within this
period, it can lead to a wrong remaining battery capacity indication. The remaining battery capacity will however be shown correctly approx.
20 seconds after the reactivation of the CBJ Care.
Safety feature
BAJL Li-ion contains several mechanisms to protect itself from being damaged due to excessive use.
In case of overheating, the device will activate a thermal protection. No power output will be available until the temperature has returned to normal
operating range. Overheating may occur by extensive use at high temperature or by exceeding the duty cycle.
Battery safety
LINAK li-ion batteries for medical use are designed and manufactured to be safe through the product lifetime. LINAK has performed various tests
of the batteries in normal use, abuse situations and failure situations to verify the design and production methods. These tests have not shown any
unacceptable risks.
The batteries are also UL-tested to have an independent organisation verify the safety of the design and to obtain a safety certificate.
This means that UL regularly inspects the factory to check that standards are complied with.
UL has tested in accordance with the following standards:
UN38.3, 6th edition - Battery Transportation Safety
IEC62133 Battery Safety
UL2054, 2nd edition - Standard for Household and Commercial Batteries

When using the control box with emergency stop, the stop button must be activated in cleaning situations in order to comply with IPX5.
The battery pack BAJ1 must not be removed in cleaning situations, doing so could result in non-compliance with IPX5.
If the CBJ1, CBJ2 is fitted with option B, D and F (DC power connector), the protection plug ex. 00918174 must always be inserted
to ensure IP protection, if the port is not used. IP rating only applies when the battery is connected to the control box.
Mounting the CBJ1, CBJ2
Adjustment instructions for the JUMBO application.
Tool For the adjustment you must use a trimming screwdriver, which can be purchased from LINAK A/S. It is also possible to use other types
of trimming screwdrivers for the adjustment.
Ordinary screwdrivers cannot be used, as they will damage the potentiometer slot.
When you receive the JUMBO from LINAK A/S it is adjusted to min. current cut-off.
1. Connect the JUMBO control box to the actuator.
2. Load the actuator with the required load.
3. Turn the potentiometer completely clockwise.
4. Run the actuator in the loaded direction at the same time turn the potentiometer anticlockwise until the actuator stops.
5. Turn the potentiometer 3 times clockwise.
6. Check JUMBO can lift the loaded actuator.
7. Insert the plugs article no. 0009020 (Light grey (RAL7035) or 0009019 (Dark grey (RAL7016) to ensure IP protection

The control boxes CBJ Care is a part of the JUMBO system. JUMBO is a
modular system combining an actuator, a control box (CBJ Care), a battery
(BAJ1 / BAJL), and a charger (CHJ2) / internal charger and a hand control in
a flexible solution, specially developed for patient lifts.
The complete system contains a series of features which meet the patient’s
need for a safe and comfortable lift.
CBJ Care is available in 3 versions, one with diodes, one with a display and
a third without display and diodes.
It is possible to have control buttons on the front cover to have an easy
control option if the hand control is missing. Furthermore it is possible to
have 3 channels via a T-cable in channel 1. The 3rd channel for tilt function
adds value for the patient and the caregiver.
Usage:
• Duty cycle: max. 10% or 2 min.continuous use then18 min. without use
• Ambient temperature: +5° to +40°
• For up to three actuators (lift, leg spreader and tilt of the sling)
• Approvals: IEC60601-1:2005 3rd edition, ANSI / AAMI ES60601-1:2005 3rd edition, CAN/CSA-22.2 No 60601-1:2008
Australia deviation, for one, two or three actuators, (lift, leg spread and tilt actuator), Canadian deviation
Recommendations
• Before start-up we recommend to reset the service counters - days and cycles until next service visit. To reset press the up and down button on the
control box or the hand control for 5 seconds. An audio signal will confirm the resetting.
• When charging, the CBJ Care will not be able to operate any actuators.
• The battery charger, CH01 and/or CHJ2 must always be ordered separately when ordering CBJ Care.
• It is not possible to use other battery types than BAJ1 or BAJL with the JUMBO Care.
• The mains cable must always be ordered separately when ordering a CBJ Care with internal charger.
• Use only original LINAK mains cables to ensure proper connection to internal charger.
• The green battery indicator (100% to 50% capacity remaining) will light up during charging even though the battery is not fully charged.
It is necessary to use the “CHARGE” diode to indicate whether or not the battery is fully charged (when using internal charger).
The CHARGE indicator will light up during charging and turn off when the battery is fully charged.
• Using the Learn Mode function means that:
The lift will never be able to lift more than 1.5 times the max. load. However, the actuator will not stop exactly at the weight it is adjusted to.
This is because the actuator will use less current when its components are run-in. After the max. current value has been registered using the “Learn”
function the control box will be able to use max. current +10%. This ensures that the lift is capable of lifting the promised load but cannot lift more
than 1.5 times this amount. If the below mentioned conditions are fulfilled:
- Learn mode is made on the specific pair of actuator and control box which are going to be used in real life afterwards.
- Ambient temperature should be app. 20 degrees C +/ - 5%.
- Load curve: difference between the highest and lowest load should not be more than approx. max. 10%
• The registration function can only be activated by using a specially produced handset (HB7x235-00). A standard handset cannot activate the function.
• The maximum cut-off value that can be registered (stored) is 11 Amp.
• If an actuator or CBJ Care is exchanged it will be necessary to reset the max. load to ensure the correct cut-off value for the new system as a whole.
• Always use fully charged batteries for learning mode procedures.
• Please note that when you disconnect the service data tool from JUMBO Care it will take 1 hour before the control box will power down.
This means that display indicators will keep lighting up 1 hour after disconnection of the service data tool.
If you want to avoid this battery consumption the emergency stop button can be activated.
• Ensure that you have the Service data tool version 2.5.0 or newer as only these versions support JUMBO Care 2nd generation.
• If the control box is exchanged, the actuator data will be lost. The data is stored in the control box, not the actuator. However, actuator data can be
maintained by using the service data tool for saving actuator data in the new control box.
• Note that the control box has to be “awake” in order to connect to the service data tool. Activate the control box before connecting via the
emergency lowering buttons or the hand control (via T-cable).
• When using the learn mode function, the lift will never be able to lift more than 1.5 times the max. load. The actuator will not stop exactly at the
load it has been adjusted to as the actuator uses less current when its components have been run in. When the max. current value has been
registered using the learn mode function, the control box will be able to use max. current +10 %. This ensures that the lift is capable of lifting the
set load, however it cannot lift more than 1.5 times of the set load.
• When registering current limits, be aware to use a defined set of actuator and control box.
• The ambient temperature must be approx. 20 ºC +/- 5 %.
• The difference between the highest and lowest load must not be more than max. 10 %.
• To activate the learn mode function, use the special hand control (HB7x235-00).
• If an actuator or CBJ Care is exchanged, it is necessary to reset the max. load to ensure the correct cut-off value for the new system.
• Always use fully charged batteries for learn mode procedures.
• A max. cut-off value of 11 Amp can be registered (stored).
• The tolerance for preset current cut-off is: +/- 1 Amp.
• The current cut-off value can be reset by means of the learn mode function, however this is not in accordance with EN10535.

Driving information
As long as a hand control button function is activated driving information will be shown on the display. Either lifting arm up, lifting arm
down, legs in or legs out or tilt of sling.
The only exception to this is when the battery is flat (stage 3 and 4 – see below). At that point the battery information will be shown
instead.
Battery information
The battery discharging will be shown in four stages:
Battery state 1: The battery is ok, no need for charging (100 - 50 %)
Battery state 2: Battery needs charging. (50 - 25 %)
Battery state 3: Battery needs charging. (Less than 25 %)
Buzzer sound is provided when a button is pressed in this battery state.
Battery state 4: The battery needs charging. At this stage some of the functionality of the lift is lost. At this battery stage,
(BAJ1 lead acid) it is not possible to drive the lifting arm up or down. Furthermore, an audio signal will sound when a control
button is activated (17V or lower). The symbol will switch between the two pictures for 10 seconds.
The battery symbol is shown when the box is active until power down (2 minutes after use).
Battery state 4: When using CBJ Care with display together with a BAJL battery, the display will not show the “Battery
(BAJL li-ion) state 4” symbol. The BAJL deep discharge protection overrules the “battery state 4”.
Consequently, the CBJ Care shuts down, and the empty battery symbol is not shown.
• The battery level is measured via voltage level. This means that it is possible to experience e.g. that the battery switches from state 1 to state 2 and
back to state 1.
Warnings
In order to avoid injury, the emergency-stop should be activated in (all) transport situations.
Functionality – JUMBO Care with display
Below you find information about what to read-out on the display version of JUMBO Care. Basically the functionality for the display version is the
same as the diode version, but more information can be read out on the display.
Hot Plugging:
Removing or adding any OpenBus™ cables is not allowed when the control box is on power via mains supply or battery! If necessary anyway, follow
the below procedure:
1. Remove mains or battery and wait 5 sec.
2. Mount or dismount the required cables
If this procedure is NOT followed it may result in a damaged OpenBus™ driver circuit.
The risk of a damaged circuit increases if the accessory has a high start current (in rush current).
Emergency lowering/lifting:
By use of BAJ1, the lifting arm can be lowered by pressing e.g. a pen in the hole or use the control buttons, if present.
This is a permitted method of lowering/lifting.
The emergency lowering/lifting “buttons” work as normal hand control buttons (you do not get extended functionality by
using these when the battery is low).
By use of BAJL, please be aware that loss of power might happen due to the battery deep discharge protection.
This will only happen by continuous use of the battery despite warning.

cycles. After each power down, the first time that the service symbol is shown the control box will provide an audio
sound (100 milli seconds) so that the user gets a reminder about checking the display.
The ‘SERVICE’ text will blink 3 times, then a static service symbol will be shown (10 seconds in total). Even though it is time for service the system will
still be functional and work as normal.
Short circuit:
If there is a short circuit the control box will show the short circuit symbol with a recommendation to check the connections.
The symbol will be shown until the short circuit has been repaired.
Charging of battery:
When the mains cable is plugged in and a control button is activated the symbol to the left is shown on the display until power down
2 minutes later. The purpose of the symbol is to tell the user that it is not possible to use the lift when it is plugged in to the mains.

The buzzer can also be activated by the control box to signal other conditions. This must be specified in the control box software.
Mounting:
The Battery Pack BA21 can be mounted in several ways on the bed/the application, either separately
or together with the control box CO61.
It is however not allowed to mount the battery in vertical position with the mounting clip pointing
upwards - see illustration below:
Deep discharge protection
• The BA21 Li-Ion has a deep discharge protection to protect the battery life. The deep discharge protection
is activated when the battery is discharged.
• Charge the battery to exit the deep discharge mode. Ensure that the battery is sufficiently charged before use.
Recommendations:
• Do not exceed the storage temperature as it will shorten the product life and performance.
• Allow the battery to settle to room temperature before use.
• Do not exceed the duty cycle 1/19 as it will shorten the life, reduce performance, and eventually activate excess temperature protection.
• BA21 Li-Ion is not intended for use in outdoor applications.
• If the battery is completely discharged, then recharge the battery before storage.

Safety feature
BA21 Li-Ion contains several mechanisms to protect itself from being damaged due to excessive use.
In case of overheating, the device will activate a thermal protection. No power output will be available until the temperature is back again within
normal operating range.
Extensive use at high temperatures or when exceeding the 1/19 duty cycle may lead to overheating.
Transportation
The lithium ion batteries must be packed and transported according to applicable regulations. Always ask your local transportation provider how to
handle the transportation of lithium ion batteries.
Warnings:
Li-Ion batteries differ from the lead acid technology as they have a built-in deep discharge protection.
• Loss of power might happen due to the battery deep discharge protection and will only happen in case of continuous use of the battery despite
warnings. In this event, there may be no warning and the application may not be able to move when expected.
• Defective or damaged li-ion batteries or li-ion batteries that may produce excessive heat or fire are not allowed for aircraft transportation.
• Do not open the battery case as damage to the cell or circuitry may develop excessive heat.
• If product caution is not clearly visible at low light intensity, read the product label instructions symbol.
A warning must be included in the application manufacturer’s manual for the medical device.
• The application manufacturer must test the application and ensure that intended unintended operations do not exceed the battery specification
limits. The application manufacturer must assure other means of movement, e.g. quick release or manual lowering.
The CS16 electronic limit switch is connected between the LINAK® actuator and a non-LINAK power supply,
where it cuts out the current to the actuator in end position of if an obstacle is encountered. The PCB contains a
variable current limit setting and is available in different versions, depending on the actuator with which it is to
be used.
The CS16 should be connected between the linear actuator and the power supply, where it will switch off the
power when the actuator reaches end position or if the actuator is overloaded.
4. CS16 (TECHLINE®)
As the CS16 are open PCB’s, they have to be installed in an encapsulation to prevent damage. (LINAK® offers one type of encapsulation for CS16).
Adjustment of CS16
The CS16 has a rotary potentiometer for adjusting the value of the cut-off current. To obtain the correct cut-off current, connect the CS16 and turn the
potentiometer as far as it will go/anticlock wise to set the maximum cut-off current.
Then subject the actuator to the maximum load it will be exposed to in the application. At the same time turn the potentiometer clockwise, reducing the
cut-off current, until the actuator stops (not in end position).
Then turn the potentiometer approx. quarter of a turn anti-clockwise and the system is ready for use.
As the CS16 is a open PCB’s, it have to be installed in an encapsulation to prevent damage. (LINAK® offers one type of encapsulation).
The DIN Junction Box is designed for use where there is a need for more than 1 or 2 controls to be connected to a
control box.
The DIN Junction Box is constructed for connection of up to 4 controls with 8-pin DIN plugs. Furthermore, the box is
constructed so that all channels for connetion are placed on the same side of the box.
This gives the box a clean design and makes it easy to mount e.g. in a bed frame.
Usage:
• Possible for connection of LINAK control boxes: CB8, CB9/CB9P, CB12, CB14, CBJ and OpenBus™ control
boxes e.g. CB20, CB6S, CB16.

9. Simulator tool (MEDLINE® CARELINE® )
The Simulator Tool is a software that can be used to simulate hand control functions on OpenBus™ and analogue
actuator systems. With the Simulator Tool, sequences of actuator movements can be programmed and repeated in
order to test actuator systems.
USB to OpenBus™ gateway:
The gateway acts as an interface between the Simulator Tool Software and the OpenBus control box.
Together with the Simulator Tool Software, it can be used for test and demo purposes only.
It is not allowed to use the product as a control in any commercial application.
It has a USB B-input connection from the computer/laptop.
As output connection it has an RJ45 jack plug for connection to the control box.
For indication of power supply, the housing has one yellow LED indicator.
Normally, the gateway is powered through the OpenBus connection to the control box. External power supply is only necessary for the control boxes
listed below.
For usage with OpenBus systems which have no permanent voltage (40 V) in the OpenBus connection, it is possible to connect the gateway to an
external power supply. Therefore, the casing is equipped with a 2.5 x 6.6 mm power jack connector.
Warnings:
• The LINAK Simulator Tool is to be used as a test tool or demo tool only. It is not allowed to use the software and accessories as a control in any
commercial application.
• Potentially dangerous situations resulting from automated movement generated by the Simulator Tool Software must be considered and assessed
before starting any action.
• Please note that over time the actual movement of an actuator within a fixed activation time may vary due to changed friction inside the actuator
or especially when a battery-driven system loses power.
Close inspection and required adjustment is necessary to obtain the wanted movement over time and to avoid potentially dangerous situations.
• The generated test report itself is not a legal proof that a system has physically moved the actuators the number of times stated and cannot be
used as such.
The time of activation listed in the report generated is not necessarily the same as the time of actuator movement. It just shows how long the
function has been activated (equal to the time you have pressed the button on the hand control).
The actuator can be in end-of-stroke position or the function can be locked and therefore the actuator itself doesn’t move.
It is recommended to use a physical counter or similar to verify the actual actuator movement.
Recommendations
• See to it that sufficient pauses are kept between activations, so that the duty cycle of each actuator type is respected.
Power input: 20 to 40 V DC, minimum requirements 10 mA
Polarity:
Use LINAK battery charger CH01
Products that require external power:
• Jumbo Care
• COBO
Limitations:
Note that an OpenBus system that has powered down (8 V missing) cannot be woken up by the USB to Openbus gateway!
Although the USB to Openbus gateway sets a keep power bit, it might be neglected by some control boxes that will power down after a period of time.
(Typically 2 minutes).
For cycle testing of such systems (typically battery equipped), that powers down during the cycle, a special control box software that has been stripped for
the power down feature is needed.

10. SLS (MEDLINE® CARELINE® TECHLINE®)
LINAK has designed a switch that can be mounted in connection with the 24V DC actuators: LA12, LA22, LA28,
LA28S, LA31, LA32, or LA34 and a control box on e.g. a bed frame.
The Safety Limit Switch (SLS). The SLS Switch is primarily used as a Limit Switch in systems consisting of a control
box, LA28/28S and/or LA32.
As an example the SLS can be installed on the actuator cable where it disconnects the actuator in either inward or
outward direction when activated. The SLS can also be used as a signal control directly connected to a control box.
The SMPS30 is a very powerful Switch Mode Power Supply typically used
for Treatment or Examination Couches. The SMPS30 is an eco-friendly
solution due to a low standby power consumption compared to tradi-
tional transformer solutions. The universal input voltage makes the SMPS
adaptable to the worldwide market irrespective of the input voltage.
Usage:
• Compatibility: LA43 IC, LA44 IC
• Duty Cycle*: 10%, 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use.
• Operating temperature: 5°C to 40°C
• Storage temperature: -10°C to 50°C

• Altitude: max. 2000 metres above sea level
• Approvals: IEC60601-1:2005 3rd ed., ANSI / AAMI ES60601-1:2005, 3rd edition, CAN / CSA-22.2 No 60601-1:2008
* AT 10% DUTY CYCLE, MAX. OUTPUT POWER IS POSSIBLE AT AN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE OF 25°C
11. SMPS30 (MEDLINE® CARELINE®)
Safety concept:
DC power is only on the application when needed – when the hand control is activated.
The user is part of a safety concept with light indications showing:
Connected to the mains
Green light when connected to the mains
Power request
Yellow light at power request when the hand control is activated
Check of functionality
Yellow light is turned off when releasing a hand control button – otherwise the
hand control or other components in the application are defective. If so, the user
must call for service.
The SMPS30 is designed for placing on the floor, but it can also be mounted on the wall / application via the bottom base plate
and 4 screws.
If the SMPS30 is mounted on the wall/application, please dismount the SMPS30 to get access to the cable locking mechanism on the mains cable.
...to be continued
![](asset-86.png)
Page 134 of 148
Recommendations
Please note
The SMPS30 is only compatible with LA43 IC and the LA44 IC.
The SMPS30 is not suitable for outdoor applications
Before installation, re-installation or troubleshooting
• Stop the application
• Switch off the power supply and pull out the mains plug
• Relieve the application of any loads, which may be released during the work
Before start-up
• Make sure that the system has been installed as instructed in the User Manual
• System connection. The individual parts must be connected before the SMPS30 is connected to the mains.
During operation
• Ensure that the cables are not damaged
• Unplug the SMPS30 before moving the equipment
Device protection:
The SMPS30 contains several mechanisms to protect itself from being damaged due to excessive use.
• In case of overheating, the device will activate a thermal protection. No power output will be available until the temperature is back again within
normal operating range.
• In case of exceeding the current limit / failure in the actuator, the device will activate an overload protection. Immediately after the situation has
been remediated the power output will be available again.
Hot plugging
• It is not allowed to remove or to add the output cable as long as the SMPS is powered by mains.
Maintenance/cleaning
• The SMPS30 must be cleaned at regular intervals to remove dust and dirt and it must be inspected for mechanical damage, wear and breaks
• It is not allowed to spray directly with a high-pressure cleaner on the device
• Interconnecting cables must remain plugged in, correctly fitted with O-rings, during cleaning to prevent ingress of water
• The SMPS30 is resistant to the majority of cleaners and disinfectants used in the hospital and nursing home sector.
However, the detergents must comply with the following basic requirements
- They must not be highly alkaline or acidic (pH value 6-8)
- They must not contain caustic agents
![](asset-87.png)

The Under Bed Light (UBL2) provides a powerful light with
a good distribution. The UBL2 is to be used for beds within
hospitals, nursing homes and in homecare.
The Under Bed Light makes it easier for patients and other
people in need of care to find their way at night in the dark
to prevent falling accidents and to make them feel safe.
12. Under Bed Light 2 (MEDLINE® CARELINE®)
Usage:
• Operating temperature: +5°C to +40°C
• Storage temperature: -10°C to +50°C
• Relative humidity: 10% to 80% at +30°C not condensing
• Atmospheric pressure: 700 to 1060hPa
• Approvals: EN62471, IEC60601-1:2005, 3rd edition (approvals are currently pending)
Recommendations and Precautions
• If 2 or more UBL2 products with dimming function are connected to the same application, it is recommended to have a factory reset key to be
able to synchronize the dimming direction and light intensity if one of the UBL2s is replaced.
• Screw holes in application are needed for mounting. Inform the customer to use M4 Ø12 screws with Ø12 washer, when mounting the UBL2.
Max. torque 2.5 Nm.
• Hot-plugging:
Removing or adding any OpenBus™ cables is not allowed when the CB is powered by mains supply!
If needed anyway, follow the below procedure:
1. Remove mains and wait 5 sec.
2. Mount or dismount the required cables
If this procedure is NOT followed, it may result in a damaged OpenBus™ driver circuit. The risk of a damaged circuit increases if the accessory
has a high start current (in rush current).
• There can be a risk of conflict with other OpenBus™ accessories, like HB, ACP, etc. when using the OpenBus™ UBL2, it is therefore
recommended to make a system/bit overview.
• Always use locking mechanism and O-ring
• Sockets not used must be fitted with blind plugs to ensure IP degree
• The UBL2 must be mounted on a plane surface and casing must not be subject to impact or any kind of stress.

9. Repair and disposal
Repair
Only an authorised LINAK service centre should repair the LINAK actuator systems. Systems to be repaired under warranty must be sent to an
authorised LINAK service centre.
In order to avoid the risk of malfunction, all actuator repairs must only be carried out by an authorised LINAK Service shop or repairers, as special
tools and parts must be used.
If a system is opened by unauthorised personel there is a risk that it may malfunction at a later date.
Spare parts
LINAK can supply spindle parts and motor parts as spare parts. Please indicate the designation from the label when ordering spare parts from your
nearest authorised LINAK dealer.
Disposal of LINAK’s products
LINAK’s products may be disposed of, possibly by dividing them into different waste groups for recycling or combustion.
We recommend that our product is disassembled as much as possible at the disposal and that you try to recycle it. As an example of main groups
within sorting of waste we can mention the following.
Metal, plastic, cable scrap, combustible material and collection for recoverable resources.
