Spark Ignition Tester Description
Oxygen Environment IEC 60601-1 Spark Ignition Tester For Me Equipment / Systems
The Spark Ignition Tester is a specialized safety testing instrument manufactured by KingPo to evaluate the RISK of fire in an oxygen-rich environment for medical electrical (ME) equipment and ME systems in full compliance with IEC 60601-1 Clause 11.2.2 and Figures 34-37.
This apparatus determines whether a source of ignition exists by simulating spark conditions between contact pins (1 mm and 3 mm diameter) in a controlled oxygen flow (<0.5 m/s). It supports assessment under normal and single fault conditions, including temperature effects, solder joint failures, and spark energy limits defined in Figures 35-37. The system flushes contacts with oxygen while performing repeatable make/break operations, with cotton as the ignition indicator material. A minimum of 300 trials is typically performed to confirm no ignition occurs.

KingPo Factory Advantages
KingPo is an ISO9001-certified manufacturer with extensive experience in medical electrical safety testing equipment. We have supplied multiple IEC 60601-1 compliant spark ignition testers to global medical device manufacturers and accredited laboratories. All units include calibration certificates (additional cost), on-site installation guidance, a 1-year warranty, and 48-hour technical response from our Dongguan facility.
Professional Construction & Technical Precision
Key features include:
- PLC-controlled operation with adjustable test speed (0-30 times/min) and oxygen flow (<0.5 m/s)
- DC output: 0-80 V voltage and 2 A current for precise spark energy simulation
- Test cycle counter: 0-99999 (presettable with automatic stop)
- Contact pins constructed from relevant materials (1 mm and 3 mm diameters) per Figure 34
- Integrated oxygen delivery tube and safety interlocks
- Robust enclosure suitable for laboratory use
These elements ensure accurate, repeatable simulation of worst-case spark ignition scenarios in 100% oxygen or lower concentrations, with proper justification documented in the RISK MANAGEMENT FILE when deviations apply.
