Ensuring Safety in Medical Devices: A Comprehensive Guide to IEC 60601 Electrical Safety Testing

Maintaining good health is a shared goal, and the healthcare industry is continually evolving to support our well-being. And medical devices play a crucial role in diagnosis, treatment, and patient monitoring. Ensuring their safety and reliability is essential, particularly in meeting IEC 60601 electrical safety requirements, which help prevent hazards like shocks and fires that could endanger patients, healthcare providers, or the devices themselves. Leveraging our years of experience, we offer this complete medical device electrical safety testing guideline and comprehensive testing solution, MedTest and various testers.

Recommended Electrical Safety Testing Solutions for the Medical Device Industry

	MedTEST gives you the ability to perform Hipot, Ground Bond, Insulation Resistance, Functional Run and Leakage Current testing for your B, BF or CF type applied parts, including Mains on Applied Parts (MOAP) tests. MedTEST handles loads that require up to 40 Amps of continuous current, includes ActiveLink® technology to reduces overall test time, and is compatible with our SC6540 modular scanning matrix for multi-point sequential testing. Utilize MedTEST with our WithStand® software to maximize productivity and store your test data.
	The OMNIA®II Multi-Function Electrical Safety Tester is an ideal solution for this challenge. It integrates AC/DC withstand (ACW/DCW), insulation resistance, leakage current, and more into a single tester. It also offers optional built-in 500VA AC power sources or can be bundled with the EEC 8500 Series Programmable AC Power Source for rigorous leakage current testing.
	The LINECHEK® II Leakage Current Tester offers complete set of touch current analyzer options. The LINECHEK II features a variety of built-in measuring devices (MD) and testing conditions to simulate any environmental circumstances. The 620L also integrates dynamic load monitoring capable of handling up to 40A DUT power.
	By controlling the tester with WithStand® test software, test data can be easily recorded, tracked, and stored. START FREE TRIAL
