Rigel kit quickens testing of medical devices

It can test to IEC 62353 or other appropriate standards and guidelines including IEC/EN60601-1, VDE 0751-1, AS/NZS 3551, AAMI, NFPA-99, MDA DB 9801- 2006.

A Bluetooth barcode scanner enables devices and equipment to be quickly and easily identified, while test results can be stored within the Rigel 288 safety analyser and printed wirelessly to the battery-operated Elite Test n Tag printer.

Information can be downloaded into Med-eBase, a simple asset-management software.

This enables the user to store and manage test results, email html test certificates to clients and schedule new work orders, which can then be uploaded to the memory.

The lightweight design and long life battery power of the Rigel 288 reduces downtime between tests, making the instrument practical and portable for multi-site use.

It features easy-to-follow menu-driven instructions for ease of operation and test control of all required electrical safety tests in manual, semi automatic or fully automatic test modes.

Users can also select from a range of preset test programs or develop customised routines.

A large internal memory facilitates the storage of test results.

It can also record user-defined inspections and measurements from other equipment such as SpO2, NIBP, ECG and other electro-medical patient equipment.

The kit comes in a hard wearing, impact and water-resistant Pelican carry case featuring foam inserts to hold the instrumentation in place and protect during transport.
