Batteries for medical electrical equipment must comply with essential safety, performance, and transportation requirements. Сòòò½APP’s battery safety testing services help to ensure the integrity of your products in both home and professional healthcare settings as well as their compliance with international regulations.

Batteries are subjected to electrical, mechanical, environmental, fire exposure, and performance testing. These battery safety testing services guarantee batteries are designed and constructed so they will not explode or catch fire during their intended use or reasonably foreseeable misuse.
