  • Stricter Medical Equipment Certification Standards Improve Protection for Medical Patients and Facilities
    of electromagnetic activity in medical equipment has led to issuing a strict new standard - IEC 60601-1-2, 2nd Edition - that dramatically increases the level of protection in medical facilities. The standard requires manufacturers to perform extensive analysis to assure that equipment or systems
  • Cable Glands for Full EMI Protection
    carry a very high risk of cable fires or electrocution resulting from the insufficient strength of the core insulation! The dielectric strength of data cables is generally only checked with 1200 to 1500 V for one minute periods. Connection and control cables, on the other hand, are tested with 4000 V
