Accredited laboratory - Import export

Medical device testing is tightly regulated due to the potential severity of an EMC or Safety failure. The term 'medical device' covers a wide range of items and we have extensive experience in testing in this area, covering items such as prosthetic limbs, hospital beds, patient monitors, TENS machines, blood pressure monitors, to name just a few. We are UKAS accredited to test for the Medical standards IEC/EN 60601-1 and IEC/EN 60601-1-2, covering the basic safety and essential performance of medical electrical equipment. We are also UKAS accredited for the following specific medical standards: -IEC 60601-1-11 Particular requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems in the home healthcare environment -IEC 60601-2-10 Particular requirements for the safety of nerve and muscle stimulators Using a UKAS accredited laboratory gives manufacturers assurance accuracy, reliability and consistency.

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 UKAS accredited calibrations are available across a large range of our traceability schedule for flowmeters, gas flow, air flow, fluid flow for both oil and water flowmeters, pressure, oxygen clean pressure, electrical, frequency, time, temperature simulation and supplemented with a host of standard traceable calibration services. UKAS accredited calibration services (Laboratory 0604) and thermal fluid component testing services to a wide scope of industries whilst maintaining a reputation for quality, cost effectiveness, impartiality and reliability. Our specialist UKAS accreditation offerings for aviation, automotive, medical, environmental and pharmaceutical sectors provide worldwide acceptance for many of the ASTM, EPA, ISO, BSI, DIN and SAE standardized test protocols.

Protecting your people, workplaces, business and the environment from an explosion, fire or other combustible dust hazard relies on the identification, mitigation and maintenance of combustible dusts. Sigma-HSE’s ISO 17025 accredited combustible dust testing laboratory offer comprehensive testing solutions with a 7-10 day turnaround to aid you in the identification and characterisation of your hazardous materials and their related risks to combustible dust explosions. We undertake the following combustible dust tests to simulate a primary dust explosion, secondary dust explosion and/or dust ignition: Dust Combustibility (Group A/B) Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE) Minimum Ignition Temperature (MIT) Layer Ignition Temperature (LIT) Explosion Severity Test (Pmax/KST) ST Classification Minimum Explosive Concentration (MEC) Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC) Burning Behaviour
