Design Philosophy
The design philosophy at WittRock is to
work closely with clinicians and
architects to design a headwall system
that specifically meets their needs and
wants. Clinicians uniquely define how
they want to deliver care. At WittRock,
we configure our systems to meet the
user’s needs.
The headwall is a means for delivering
medical gases, electrical services,
communication devices, and for
managing medical equipment. As
headwalls are an extension of the clinical
caregiving support system, the headwall,
therefore, must be able to meet the
clinician’s needs. Just using standard
concepts or products to deliver care may
not meet the requirements that the
clinicians are demanding. Clinicians
want to solve their problems rather than
have to apply band-aids on standard
options to make them work.
The capability of WittRock to design a
system that meets clinical needs and
wants is based on product
configurability; the vast clinical
experience and knowledge at WittRock;
and most importantly, the ability for
WittRock to understand how a
customer’s needs can best be met.
WittRock provides value by listening to
customers and understanding their needs
and wants.
Product configurability is dependent on
the product’s flexibility and adaptability
to provide more or less services and/or
change the position of these services
over time. The only constant in
healthcare is the fact that the method of
care delivery changes over time. New
equipment and procedures are constantly
being introduced. If the headwall or any
other product does not have the
flexibility, adaptability, and
expandability to also change, the facility
runs the risk of becoming obsolete in
how it delivers care.
The WittRock system is based on
components. Additional components can
be added over time to increase the
amount of medical gases, electrical
services, and equipment management.
Services can also be configured within
each of the components according to the
amount and location needed to meet the
requirements of each clinical situation.
WittRock consults with the architect
and clinician when developing a
headwall design. By asking clinicians
how they want to deliver care, and
listening to their needs and wants,
WittRock is able to create a system of
products that meet the customer’s
objectives. An internal system of design
support takes the clinician’s and
architect’s ideas and translates them into
workable headwall designs.
WittRock also understands that it must
create a starting point in the design
process. These starting points are based
on our 30 years of experience providing
headwall systems for most of the
facilities in the United States. The
number of services and location of
services in any clinical area are based on
the knowledge that we have gained.

Scope
This design and application guide is for
the Integris® B Series Headwall System,
sometimes referred to as horizontal
headwalls in the industry.
All of the major clinical areas are
included within the design and
application guide. There are also several
alternatives for starting points, enabling
the clinicians to start with a design that is
closest to their actual needs and wants.
Although the starting points are specific
to each area, such as the Emergency
Department, Intensive Care areas, and
General Medical/Surgical rooms, one
design from an area may easily be used
as the starting point for another.
From these starting points, using a
consultative approach, WittRock creates
the headwall system that meets the
individual objectives of each clinician, as
well as the architect, while keeping the
products simple, workable, and
affordable.
Significant portions of this design and
application guide are devoted to
providing the architect with product
information, so that there can be
excellent coordination in the overall
design of the facility. WittRock works
through the architect to create these
designs.
Options and Product Concepts
There are three basic options that a
facility can evaluate for its system of
products to deliver medical gases,
electrical services, and equipment
management capabilities: headwall
system, power column, and ceiling
mounted arm.
Headwall System
The headwall system is mounted onto the
surface of the wall directly behind the
bed in either a vertical or a horizontal
position.
Advantages
• Utilizes floor space effectively
• Distributes services on either side
of the bed
Power Column
The power column is a freestanding
structure located approximately 2'
(61 cm) from the wall.
The advantage of a power column is that
it provides easy access to the head of the
patient at any time, especially in a code
situation.

DRAFT 07/21/04
Ceiling Mounted Arm
The ceiling mounted arm consists of an
arm and service head mounted in the
ceiling of the room. It delivers medical
gases, electrical services, and equipment
management capabilities, and it
articulates around the patient.
Advantages
• The delivery point of services
changes depending on patient
situation/condition
• Easy access to the head of the
patient, especially in a code
situation
• Utilizes floor space effectively
Regulations, Standards, and
Codes
The Integris® B Series Headwall System
is designed in compliance with all
regulations, standards, and codes from
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), National Electrical Code®1
(NEC®2), and the Canadian Standards
Association (CSA®3).
Components
The Integris® B Series Headwall System
is based on components that can be
configured to meet the needs of the
customer. Each of the components is
designed to work as part of an overall
headwall system.

Typical Room Considerations
Room Widths
The key dimension for the Integris®
Headwall System is the width of the wall
where the product will be mounted.
Typically, the wall is between 6' 10"
(208 cm) and 12' (366 cm) in length with
most walls being either 8' (244 cm) or
10' (305 cm) high. Certain areas of the
facility, such as PACU, Neonatal,
Intensive Care, and treatment rooms
within the Emergency Department may
require lengths that exceed 10' (305 cm).
The Integris® B Series Headwall System
can be joined together for longer
lengths—servicing two or three
rooms/treatment areas.
We recommend that the Integris® B
Series Headwall System be centered
horizontally on the wall to create more
aesthetic appeal and reduce potential
installation issues. There should also be a
minimum of a 3" (8 cm) space on either
side of the unit to enable easier
installation and access for service or
repair.
We recommend that the product does not
span wall-to-wall, as this creates possible
problems if the dimensions provided for
the product are greater than the actual
space due to minor construction changes.
A headwall can span from wall to wall,
but field measurements must be taken
after the walls have been built.
For details concerning installing the unit,
please refer to the section titled
“Installation” on page 79.
Wall Mounting
Most walls consist of dry wall mounted
onto metal studs. The wall surface needs
to be flat and smooth. There should not
be any bowing or localized high/low
spots.
If the walls are not dry wall, but some
other material, such as concrete or block,
the same mounting procedures are
utilized, but with different fasteners. In
situations other than dry wall, a chase is
generally used to feed the Integris® B
Series Headwall System as it is very
difficult to feed the system from behind
the wall.
Though not required, it is recommended
that others provide a backing for
mounting the Integris® B Series
Headwall System to reduce the
installation time and make a more secure
product mounting. For details concerning
installing the unit, please refer to the
section titled “Installation” on page 79.
The mounting of the headwall to the
facility wall should be designed to
manage the accessories and medical
equipment applied by the facility. The
amount of equipment and the
corresponding weight will have to be
determined from consultation with the
facility. The weight can easily approach
several hundred pounds. The architect
and/or the structural engineer has the
responsibility to determine how the
product should be attached to the wall
and whether backing is required.

DRAFT 07/21/04
The wall has to be designed to manage
the weight of the Integris® B Series
Headwall System and the weight of the
accessories/medical equipment. The
weight of various 8' (244 cm)
Integris® B Series Headwall Systems
can be found in table 2 on page 18.
The weight of the medical equipment
needs to be determined in consultation
with the facility, as it will vary greatly. It
should not be surprising that the facility
will add 150 lb to 200 lb (68 kg to 91 kg)
of additional weight in medical
equipment to the above.
