In advanced laboratories, tests are carried out in accordance with the international IEC 60601-1-2 standard to ensure adequate electromagnetic safety, performance and effectiveness of medical devices and electrical equipment.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), also called radio frequency interference, is interference produced by an external source that affects an electrical circuit through electromagnetic induction, electrostatic coupling, or conduction.
Many medical device manufacturers add wireless features to their existing products. In this case, it is necessary to obtain the necessary legal approvals for wireless medical devices. When wireless functionality is added to a medical device, wireless coexistence assessments become an essential part of ensuring core safety and core performance, and these aspects need to be tested in advanced laboratories.
Any malfunction in medical devices can lead to negative consequences, including death. When wireless functionality is added to these devices, testing and controls become more complex, requiring compliance with a number of legal regulations and standards. In this respect, EMC testing (electromagnetic compatibility) of medical devices is a critical part of any testing program.
The standard based on these tests is: TS EN 60601-1-2 Electrical medical equipment - Part 1-2: General specifications for basic safety and required performance - Supplementary standard: Electromagnetic compatibility - Specifications and tests.
In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, there are also EMI-EMC testing services for medical products.
