Rigel has introduced a new handheld safety analyzer for the routine electrical testing of basic medical and laboratory equipment.
The new Rigel SafeTest 50 is a compact, rugged and reliable safety analyzer that is particularly well suited to high volume testing demands, with a simple color coded user interface, push button operation and the fast step selection 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’s, centrifuges and other similar equipment that does not require patient lead testing.
As such, the SafeTest 50 is suitable for electrical testing to ensure compliance with a range of international safety standards including leakage testing to AAMI ES 60601, NFPA-99, IEC 6253 and IEC 61010.
In addition, to meet the needs of some specific types of equipment, the unit also has the capability to carry out accurate ground bond testing to NFPA-99, IEC 62353 and IEC 61010 using Rigel’s unique high current, low energy test technology.
In all cases, full manual control means only those specific tests that are required need to be carried out, with selected single fault conditions ensuring that testing is carried out quickly and efficiently – without any compromise in accuracy or integrity of testing.
As part of the new streamlined approach to carrying out electrical safety tests, an automatic warning of secondary ground paths ensures that users are made aware when invalid results have been made, eliminating time consuming re-tests and ensuring correct and valid results are provided first time.
The new Rigel SafeTest 50 analyzer is competitively priced at $985 (list price) and is the latest addition to the comprehensive range of high performance biomedical test equipment from Rigel Medical.
