New IEC 60601-2-46 and IEC 60061-2-57 standards added to the SIQ IECEE CB scope

08. April 2022

In January 2022, SIQ successfully expanded its CB scope under the IECEE scheme to include two particular standards, i.e.,  IEC 60601-2-46 (Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of operating tables) and IEC 60061-2-57 (Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of non-laser light source equipment intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, monitoring and cosmetic/aesthetic use).

Since 26 January 2022, SIQ can perform tests and issue CB test reports according to the above-mentioned standards. IEC 60601-2-46 standard for operating tables focuses mainly on mechanical testing. The major focus of IEC 60601-2-57 standard for non-laser light source equipment is on the protection against non-laser radiation.
