The CA10 is a cost-efficient analogue control box developed primarily for the long-term care sector with a specific focus on homecare bed applications and is a part of the LINAK® Spyder™ solution.
Powered from an external Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS10), the CA10 comes with either 3 or 4 actuator channels, a hand control port and an IPX4 rating.
With a built-in unique sliding mechanism, the CA10 is designed to be easily mounted on the LA24 backrest actuator. The CA10 comes with pre-installed cables with predefined cable lengths that are specifically chosen to fit most homecare beds and is compatible with signal and power switch actuators.
The compact and streamlined system design of the CA10 promotes cost-efficiency when bed applications require a basic and easy-to-setup-and-run solution.

Can I drive four individual functions on a CA10?
Yes, you can drive four individual analogue functions on a CA10, as long as you stay within 100 W and duty cycle 2/18 min.
Can I use other LINAK electric actuators for the Spyder™ solution?
I need a longer power cord between the wall plug and control box.
Please contact your local sales engineer at LINAK.
What cables are available for LINAK Spyder™?
The CA10 comes with preinstalled cables in fixed lengths that has been chosen to fit most homecare bed applications. Please contact your local sales engineer at LINAK if further questions on cable length requirements.
What countries/regions is the LINAK Spyder™ available for?
Currently, there are four versions of the SMPS10 (220-240VAC): EU, UK, Australia and China.
What does LINAK Spyder™ consist of?
This complete solution includes an SMPS10 external 100W Switch Mode Power Supply, a CA10 fully analogue control box with electronics, fixed cables, hand control port and mountable on the LA24 actuator; an HB400/HB70 analogue hand control and a choice of LA24 and LA27 actuators for 3 or 4 motor bed applications.
What if I break a cable, can it be replaced?
It is not possible to replace a broken cable as they are fixed to the control box.
Please contact your local sales engineer at LINAK.
What if I want to have a battery back up?
It is currently not possible.
What is LINAK Spyder™
The essential solution.
LINAK Spyder™ is a cost-efficient actuator system for 3-4 motor bed applications powered by an external SMPS.
What is the IP degree of the LINAK Spyder™?
The LINAK Spyder is rated IPX4 when the handset is connected to the CA10 control box. IPX4 means that the products are protected from splashing and suited for manual cleaning, ideally with a damp cloth.
Ensure that the power cable connector is kept dry during cleaning.
The CA10 platform, powered via an external power supply (SMPS10), is certified in accordance with the general standard for medical electrical equipment, IEC 60601-1.
The same applies to the SMPS10 power unit. The CA10 is designed for IPX4 according to the requirements of the standard for medical beds, IEC 60601-2-52, and the SMPS10 is designed for IP21 according to the requirements of the standard IEC 60601-1-11 for medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.
The IEC 60601-1 states that the requirements of an ME system distinguish between ‘within’ and ‘outside’ the PATIENT ENVIRONMENT. When in active use, the SMPS10 is outside the PATIENT ENVIRONMENT and if/when cleaned, there is no longer a connection between the bed and the SMPS10.
What is the price of the LINAK Spyder™?
Please contact your local LINAK representative.
Which markets are the LINAK Spyder™ intended for?
LINAK Spyder is intended for basic bed applications such as the home care market.
