Rigel has introduced a new handheld safety analyser for the routine electrical testing of basic medical and laboratory equipment.
The Rigel SafeTest 60 is a compact, robust, and reliable safety analyser well suited to high volume testing demands, with a simple colour-coded user interface, push-button operation, and fast stepthrough of test routines.
The general purpose tester includes a comprehensive range of safety tests for hospital and medical equipment such as medical beds and chairs, operating tables, hoists, infusion pumps, CPAP units, centrifuges, and other similar equipment that does not require patient lead testing.
As such, the SafeTest 60 is suitable for electrical testing to ensure compliance with a range of international safety standards, including leakage testing to IEC 60601, IEC 62353, IEC 61010, and NFPA-99. It can also be used for insulation testing in line with IEC 62353, and accurate high current, low energy earth bond testing to both IEC 62353 and IEC 61010.
In all cases, full manual control means only those specific tests that are required can be carried out, with minimised power breaks and full control of power cycles helping to ensure that testing is quick, accurate, and efficient.
