Operation Ready Protection for Sensitive Medical Devices
"Operation ready" takes on a even more pertinent meaning when equipment is being manufactured for medical purposes. While an MRI machine is not necessarily a "medical operation," it is a delicate machine operating to provide information critical for the preservation of life.
Delicate Devices
Cambridge Research Systems Limited creates delicate equipment often used for research and documentation purposes. Scientists all over the world utilize their engineered products, especially for observation of the functions of the eye and the brain, delicate apparatuses in their own right.
Cambridge Research works to provide enhanced precision and control in the high performance devices that scientists and doctors need. Many of their products are furnished with high definition displays, showing critical information about the functioning of the devices as well data from the patient. These displays need to be operational in frequency filled settings--any failure could cause a cascade of complications.
Shielding for Essential Displays
The displays used on Cambridge Research Systems Limited MRI compatible LCD monitors require shielding in order to meet the qualifications of their application. For 15 years, Optical Filters has worked to supply Cambridge with EMI shielded window filters for their MRI compatible LCDs, meeting lead times and supplying specified and fine-tuned products.
