MRI/CT UPS power supply

CT scanners (Computed Tomography) typically require high-power UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) to 

ensure stable operation. The specific UPS power requirement is influenced by several factors, including 

the CT scanner model and specifications, actual usage, operating time requirements, and the stability of 

the hospital's power supply. 

Generally, the UPS power requirement for a CT scanner is between 80KVA and 120KVA.

Below are estimated power requirements for some common CT scanners:

- Single-slice spiral CT scanners (16 slices or less): Typically require an 80KVA to 100KVA UPS.

- Multi-slice spiral CT scanners (64 slices and above): Typically require a 100KVA to 120KVA UPS.

It is important to note that power requirements may vary between different manufacturers and models of CT 

scanners. Specific UPS selection should be based on power calculations and selection according to the actual 

situation to ensure the UPS can meet the stable power supply needs of the CT scanner, guaranteeing the 

normal operation of the hospital and patient safety. Therefore, when selecting a UPS, it is recommended to 

consult a professional power equipment supplier or engineer and refer to the CT scanner's technical 

specifications and the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure the appropriate UPS capacity. 

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) equipment typically requires a high-power UPS (Uninterruptible Power 

Supply) to ensure stable operation. The power requirements of the UPS vary depending on the model and 

specifications of the MRI equipment and the actual usage. Generally, the UPS power requirement for MRI 

equipment is between 80KVA and 160KVA. The power requirements for some common MRI equipment are 

as follows:

- 1.5T MRI equipment: Typically requires an 80KVA to 100KVA UPS.

- 3T MRI equipment: Typically requires a 100KVA to 120KVA UPS.

- High-field MRI equipment (3T and above): Typically requires a 120KVA to 160KVA UPS.

It is important to note that the specific UPS power requirement will also be affected by factors such as the 

stability of the hospital's power supply, the actual usage of the MRI equipment, operating time 

requirements, and the availability of backup power systems. Therefore, when selecting a UPS, it is 

recommended to consult a professional power equipment supplier or engineer to perform power 

calculations and selection based on the specific circumstances to ensure that the UPS can meet the 

stable power supply needs of the MRI equipment, guaranteeing the normal operation of the hospital and 

patient safety.
