    Uploaded by

    MauricioGS
    This document provides instructions for measuring the electrical safety of an ultrasonic device using a GM-610 tester. It describes preparing the device, inspecting for issues, connecting the GM-610, and measuring the protective earth resistance, equipment leakage current, and patient leakage current. It also demonstrates measuring with a simulated fault by damaging the device's isolation to check it exceeds limits. The goal is to verify safety and identify any issues before use.

    1. Preparation

    Make sure, that all devices stand correctly and safety.

    Always use proper measurement cords, youre test location


    should be clean and tidily.

    For security reasons always start with the PE measurement ,


    the inspection process should be followed.

    Basically you have to follow the advices of the valid standard


    for your test object.
    (e.g. : DIN EN 62353, DIN VDE 0701-0702).

    www.spl-elektronik.com 3

    2. Inspection

    Check the presence of all documents and equipment parts of the


    testing object.

    Security- and warning notices must be readable and complete.

    Search for cracks and dents in the device housing, every weak spot
    is a security fault.

    Safety problems must be fixed before you can start the measurement
    of the electrical safety.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 4
    Example: warning notices

    www.spl-elektronik.com 5

    3. Electrical Safety
    Connection:
    Plug in the safety tester into the power socket and switch it on.

    Plug in the mains plug of the ultrasonic device into the test socket of the
    safety tester.

    All power switches of the test object have to be switched on before you
    start the measurement of the electrical safety.

    The measure cord must be plugged into the TP-1 jack and connected
    to a accessible conductive part.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 6
    Example: power switches

    www.spl-elektronik.com 7

    Example: measure cord

    3.1 Connection
    The applied part (ultrasonic head) has to be connected to the GM-610 for
    the next measurements. We took a kidney dish filled with water to get a
    proper current circuit.

    Just the front has to be


    under water.

    The kidney dish is


    connected with a
    clamp to the GM-610.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 9

    3.2 GM-610 Setup

    For the following tests we use the


    Multimeter Modus of the GM-610.

    The IEC 62353 is the right


    standard for this recurrent
    test.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 10
    3.3 Measurement SPL20

    Select the protective earth test step


    according to the IEC 62353.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 11

    3.4 Measurement SPL20

    The measurement starts immediately . You have to test all the


    accessible conductive parts of a correct PE resistance by connecting
    them with the GM-610.

    0.3 Ohm is the allowed value for the


    PE resistance, the measured value is
    within the correct limit.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 12
    3.5 Measurement
    SPL220/220P
    For the equipment leakage current we take the direct version. The
    testing object has to be switched on.

    The required phase inversion


    is performed automatically by
    choosing the test step with the
    P at the end.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 13

    3.6 Measurement
    SPL220/220P

    For a class 1 device, the limit value is 500A.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 14
    3.7 Measurement
    SPL250/250P
    The measurement of the patient leakage current is performed with
    the fault condition : mains voltage on the applied parts in a direct
    version.

    The phase inversion has to be


    done again.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 15

    3.8 Measurement
    SPL250/250P

    As you can see the values for both test steps is the same.
    The limit value is 5000A for this measurement.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 16
    4.1 Fault condition

    To simulate a fault condition we damaged the isolation of the


    ultrasonic head.

    The damage in the lower left corner


    should influence our measurement
    in a noticeable way. This failure
    could appear after a long usage in a
    patient enviroment.

    www.spl-elektronik.com 17

    4.2 Fault condition

    Now we have a value far away


    from the limit .

    This failure should be prospected and fixed befor this device can be used
    again.

    The electrical safety measurent must be done again when parts of the
    equipment has been repaired or replaced.
