This series includes general standards, collateral standards (defined certain safety and performance), and particular standards (defined individual products, such as high-frequency scalpels, blood pressure monitors, etc.) The IEC 60601 series standards require medical devices must pass Hipot test, GB test, and leakage current test. Some medical devices would use ultra-high voltage to carry out the Hipot test. Ikonix offers complete testing solutions that enable manufacturers to ensure their product is safe, reliable, precise, and in compliance with regulations and standards, and help make the world a better place.
