Customized Battery Management Systems for Medical Devices
Medical devices are used in a variety of environments – in hospitals, at doctor’s offices, in patient’s homes and even on the patient. Ensuring safe use and reliable performance starts at the design phase and decisions made throughout the development process will ultimately impact the overall safety, reliability, and performance of the device.
At Inventus Power, we design and manufacture the Battery Management System (BMS) in-house which gives us 100% control over the design and ability to customize each battery pack to match the end application.
Regulatory Compliant Battery
Systems for Medical Devices
Inventus Power has extensive regulatory experience for country-specific certifications as well as FDA class I, II & III certification requirements. In addition, we also have an in-house regulatory lab and test both cells and battery packs in the product prototype stage to ensure that a customer’s battery pack will pass compliance testing, such as IEC 62133, UL 2054, UL 1642, IEC 60101-1, UNDOT 38.3 and more. Our goal is to make sure the battery pack’s compliance dovetails into the customer’s product-level agency requirements and performance.
Patient-Centric Design
At Inventus Power, patient safety is a priority. Every feature of the battery management system, every aspect of the mechanical design, every software algorithm is designed with safety in mind. Our promise: We don’t compromise on safety, ever.
Medical Product Awareness Training
We make every battery pack in-house and train our employees on the manufacturing line of the immense importance of the batteries they are helping to produce. It is our experience, that when we inform our employees on the end application, whether it is a ventricular assist device, respirator or other critical medical device, there is higher attention to quality throughout all steps in the manufacturing process.
Why Inventus Power?
Battery Industry Expertise
Medical device battery solutions are not one-size-fits-all, and neither are designers and manufacturers of battery packs, chargers and power supplies.
