B-3

The load of the GCX guide rail for the A8/A9 anesthesia machine is as follows:

A collapsible auxiliary work surface is mounted. The (12+12)-inch double-hinged arm has the

largest load (bending moment) among all arm accessories recognized by Mindray, with a

maximum load of 14 kg. Therefore, the force can be calculated as follows:

Wmax = 14 kg × 609.6 mm = 8535 kgf.mm (62 lbf ft)

M (kg)

L (mm)

L = 8535/M

L (mm): maximum arm length

M (kg): load
