The Importance of Electrical Safety Testing

Electrical safety testing is a critical process designed to evaluate and verify the safety and compliance of electrical and electronic devices. With increasing reliance on advanced technology in fields such as healthcare, manufacturing, and consumer electronics, ensuring these devices meet global safety standards is non-negotiable.

At Sigma Scientific, we specialize in testing products against globally recognized standards such as IEC 62127-1, IEC 60601-2-37, ISO 8600-5, and EN 60601-1. These standards define stringent guidelines to protect users, ensuring the safety, performance, and reliability of electrical devices.

Why Electrical Safety Testing Matters

  • Consumer Protection: Ensures that products are safe to use and pose no harm to users.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Assists manufacturers in meeting the requirements of governing bodies across regions.
  • Brand Reputation: Demonstrates a commitment to quality, boosting consumer trust and brand loyalty.
  • Global Market Access: Ensures products are accepted in international markets by meeting global safety standards.

Standards We Adhere To

IEC 62127-1: Acoustics - Hydrophones

Hydrophones are critical in measuring ultrasonic waves in fields like medical imaging and industrial applications. IEC 62127-1 specifies the performance and safety requirements for hydrophones, ensuring precise and reliable measurements.

Sigma Scientific's testing facilities are equipped with cutting-edge technology to evaluate hydrophones against this standard, ensuring they meet the performance benchmarks needed for safe and effective use. Our meticulous testing processes guarantee compliance with this important standard, fostering innovation without compromising safety.


IEC 60601-2-37: Medical Electrical Equipment

Medical imaging systems, such as diagnostic ultrasound devices, play a crucial role in healthcare. IEC 60601-2-37 outlines safety and performance requirements specific to these devices, ensuring their effectiveness while minimizing risks to patients and operators.

Our expertise in IEC 60601-2-37 testing ensures that every medical device passing through our labs is compliant, safe, and reliable. With a comprehensive understanding of medical equipment standards, Sigma Scientific enables healthcare providers to trust their devices implicitly, safeguarding patient care.


ISO 8600-5: Optics and Optical Instruments

In medical endoscopy, precision and safety are paramount. ISO 8600-5 defines the testing standards for the determination of image quality and functionality of rigid and flexible endoscopes.

At Sigma Scientific, we ensure that endoscopic equipment meets the stringent requirements of ISO 8600-5, verifying their optical performance and mechanical durability. This testing not only upholds patient safety but also ensures medical practitioners can deliver accurate diagnoses and treatments with confidence.


EN 60601-1: General Safety of Medical Electrical Equipment

EN 60601-1 is one of the most comprehensive and widely adopted standards for medical electrical equipment. It addresses general requirements for basic safety and essential performance, forming the foundation of medical device compliance worldwide.

Sigma Scientific provides detailed EN 60601-1 testing to evaluate a device's electrical safety, mechanical integrity, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). With our extensive expertise, we ensure that your devices comply with this standard, mitigating risks and guaranteeing safe operation in various healthcare environments.
