Efficient access at RS EMC Pekayon Hospital

The RS EMC Peyakon Hospital in the city of Bekasi belongs to a large network of hospitals in the country, the ‘EMC Group’, which operates several centres in different locations in Indonesia. Through its 8 clinics throughout the country and thanks to its employees, it offers leading quality medical services in a wide variety of medical specialities, ranging from cardiology, paediatrics, neurology, psychology and internal medicine.

The hospital also features 4 operating theatres and a group of experienced doctors supported by sophisticated and up-to-date equipment to meet the needs of patients. Entrances to the operating theatres are through automatic hermetic doors made of stainless steel with a flush vision panel in the centre of the leaves. The operators' covers have been fitted with signs with the different operating theatre numbers and proximity program switches to open the doors without the need for physical contact.

Energy efficiency in hospitals

The main entrance has standard automatic sliding doors and fixed leaves with transparent profiles. On the one hand, this allows natural light to enter, and on the other hand, it minimises the transfer of hot or cold air from the interior, keeping the temperature constant. This is especially useful in air-conditioned buildings such as hospitals, as it reduces the work of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems.

By preventing hot or cold air from escaping, the effort required by the appliances to maintain the desired temperature is reduced, which translates into energy savings. Automatic doors close quickly after a person passes through, preventing them from remaining open longer than necessary.
