SGS Knows What’s Best for Mobile Medical Technology Certification

MUNICH - Jan. 13, 2016 - PRLog -- Battery Test House Provides Portable Electronics Testing

For mobile medical technology, manufacturers require certification to IEC 60601. Lithium-ion batteries used in this technology must be tested against IEC standard 62133. SGS tests portable power supplies at its Battery Test House in Munich. This testing institute can also issue the required certificates to manufacturers. SGS is an accredited certification body (CB), and its laboratory is authorized to perform safety tests on portable electronic and electrical products.

For IEC 62133-compliant battery tests, SGS follows the CB Scheme, which is recognized in more than 60 countries worldwide.
