Health checkup for safety analysers

Verifying the in-service accuracy of electromedical safety analysers is quick and easy with the IEC60601 Checkbox from Rigel Medical.

Most instrument manufacturers recommend a calibration interval in which the instrument, under normal use, is expected to perform within the specification provided.

However, test frequency and ageing of components are common factors that could affect an instrument's performance at any time.

The Rigel 601 Checkbox is designed to verify the performance of safety analysers between formal calibrations to provide an effective control system and avoid situations where testing may be undertaken with instruments that are out of true specification.

The Rigel 601 Checkbox is designed to accurately replicate the leakage characteristics of equipment designed to IEC60601-1 providing up to 11 patient connections.

With the ability to generate both AC and DC leakage currents as well offering dedicated F-type circuitry, the Rigel 601 is able to provide calibrated values for earth leakage, enclosure leakage, patient leakage and patient leakage mains on applied parts.

In addition, the Rigel 601 is able to provide a series of highly accurate resistance values to check the linearity of the earth bond and insulation measuring circuits.

Dedicated switch positions provide individual pass and fail values for B/BF and CF limits as per IEC60601-1.

With the use of high precision resistors, the Rigel 601 has a recommended calibration interval of 36 months, providing a stable and accurate reference for all IEC60601-1 safety analysers for years to come.
