Learn more about our reliable medical power solutions below.

In today's technology-driven world, electronic devices are integral to almost every aspect of life, particularly in the medical field. From diagnostic equipment to life support systems, the continuous operation of these devices is critical, as downtime or failure can have severe consequences. At Haredata Electronics, we recognize that the backbone of these applications lies in the unwavering reliability of power supplies, batteries, and chargers. This blog post explores the essential role these components play in ensuring seamless and continuous operation in high-stakes medical environments.


The Crucial Role of Power Supplies, Batteries, and Chargers in Medical Applications


Power supplies, batteries, and chargers are the lifeline for medical devices, providing a steady and reliable source of power. In medical settings, where power disruptions can be catastrophic, choosing the right power solutions is crucial. These applications require components that are not only efficient and compact but also exceptionally reliable. This reliability guarantees uninterrupted essential functions, protects lives, and safeguards valuable assets.


Medical environments demand the highest standards of power consistency and quality. Devices such as ventilators, monitors, and diagnostic tools must operate flawlessly, as any interruption could lead to dire consequences.

What is MDR? The New Medical Device Regulation
By Ben Winstanley October 29, 2020
What is MDR? Medical Device Regulation MDR is a new regulation issued by the European Parliament and the council of medical devices. It is replacing previous medical device directives 90/385/EEC and 93/42/EEC. The requirements of the new regulation are more complex than previously and are different per product. The vast majority of products are subject to new labelling and documentation requirements, such as; • Requirements for a unique device identification number (UDI) • Traceability of products The new requirements specified by the MDR cover each role played by differing companies on the supply chain, meaning at each step there are new responsibilities to be aware of. When does the MDR come into play? The MDR was initially due to begin the transition in May of this year but due to the global pandemic it is has been postponed to 26th May 2021. This transition deadline has to be met by all companies and suppliers by the date. What does MDR mean for power supplies?
