9 For this reasonadditional means of protection are required in order to comply with therelevant safety standards. For EN60601-1 leakage tests, it is recommendedthat this additional protection is in the form of an isolation transformer,with an isolated reference ground, used to power the entire not connect any probe combination to the maximum permittedvoltage of 30 V AC/DC with respect to earth potential whenperforming non-power tests. Danger of electric used for tips and guidance notes in this note(s) available see Appendix 288 Instruction Manual Revision 481. IntroductionThe Rigel 288 is the FIRST universal truly hand-held medical electrical safety tester tocombine the features of an automatic / Manual tester with a data logging / assetmanagement facility.

10 A compact lightweight design and long life battery power reducesdowntime between tests, making the instrument totally practical and highly portable formulti-site addition to IEC 60601-1 and AAMI / NFPA 99, the Rigel 288 tests to the newstandard for in-service and after repair testing of medical electronic devices, currentlydrafted in as the IEC 62353. The Rigel 288 s large internal memory facilitates thestorage of test results for safety audit and traceability purposes. Comprehensivedatabase software is available to ensure fast and easy download of test results,managing your asset database, creation of test sequences.
