Exploring Sentinel III – Medical System

Sentinel III – Medical System

Chroma Sentinel III

  • Chroma 19032, CaptivATE, 1500VA or 800VA AC Source, Matrix 8000 Scanning System
  • Testing to IEC 60601-1 & IEC 60601-2-49
  • F-Type LC (Mains-on-Applied-Part)
  • Multi-Point Hipot, GB and LC Testing
  • Up to 16 Patient (Applied Part) Connections
  • Power-Up Computerized Devices

The Sentinel III System provides complete Electrical Safety Testing to IEC60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-49 (Multifunctional Patient Monitoring Equipment) in a fully automated fashion. The Sentinel III saves time by scanning patient connections for leakage current without powering down the device.

Sentinel III systems save time by scanning patient connections for leakage current without powering down the medical device. They also have soft start/stop capability, which permits PC-based medical devices to boot up/shut down before starting leakage tests and removing mains power.

Test Capabilities

CaptivATE provides the Sentinel III System with the capability to create test sequences, capture data, bar code scanning of device model and serial number, and automatically recall test setups based upon model number. All test data is saved into a database for trending and analysis.


Test Capabilities

  • Ground Bond
  • AC Hipot up to 5kVac Multipoint
  • Mains to AP Dielectric Withstand
  • DC Hipot up to 6kVdc-Multipoint
  • Patient Leakage up to 16 points
  • Earth Leakage – 1 point
  • Enclosure Leakage – 4 points
  • Patient Auxiliary Leakage – up to 16 points
  • F-Type Leakage (100% Mains Applied Part) – up to 16 points
  • 110% Mains on SIP/SOP’s
  • Programmable AC Source
Uses
  • IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60601-1 Testing and IEC 60601-2-XX Testing
  • Patient Monitor Testing
  • Defibrillator Testing
  • Electro Surgical Device Testing
  • Devices with Multiple Patient Connections
  • Testing Main Powered & Internally Powered Devices
  • Testing Medical Devices with B,BF & CF Applied Parts

CaptivATE Software: Create test sequences, capture data, provide bar code scanning of device model and serial number, automatic recall of test setup based upon model number; save all data to a database. CaptivATE software eliminates the need for the operator to make Pass/Fail judgment, record test results, make process deviation decisions, select the proper test, or interface with multiple types of test equipment.


No Changing Cables during the Test: Perform F-Type leakage tests and Mains to Patient connection hipot testing without the need for operator interaction. The system can also be configured for multipoint hipot, ground bond, and leakage current measurements. The operator does not have to connect/disconnect cables at any other point during the test other than at the beginning and end.


Need More Patient Connections: Add 1, 2 or 3 General modules to the standard configuration for an additional 4, 8 or 12 points. The maximum number of patient (applied part) connections is 16 (4 General modules).


Engage Medical Device Functions: Use the Sentinel III System to create ‘worst case’ leakage current conditions before making measurements. Allows PC systems to power up prior to making the leakage current measurement.


AC Source: Automatically program and regulate mains voltage and frequency applied to the device under test.
