The first UK IECEx service facilities certificate
Sira has become the first certification body to issue an IECEx Certificate of Conformity for the repair and overhaul of hazardous area equipment, to a UK-based repair workshop
Sira will be in attendance at HazardEx 2008
As the UK's leading ATEX Notified Body, Sira supports the HazardEx industry exhibition and conference event, 27th - 28th February 2008, at the East of England Showground, Peterborough, UK
Sira has an impressive track record in identifying, designing and commercialising biomedical instrumentation.
The company will be demonstrating this expertise in Hall 13 Booth C72, Trade Fair Centre, Dusseldorf, 24-27 November 2004, when a range of new instruments will be unveiled.
Debuting at Medica 2004 is the new Sira high resolution scanning probe technology for optical coherence tomography.
Applications for this probe range from cervical cancer screening, colposcopy, oesophageal, dermal colorectal and cardiovascular examinations in hospitals and clinics.
This innovative technology is a more accessible and cost-effective alternative to biopsy, producing immediate, quality results.
Also showing at Medica for the first time will be the APS250 radiation hard camera.
The camera is based on "Active Pixel Sensor" technology and is suitable for any imaging application where hostile radiation is an issue (e.g synchrotron facilities).
The 0.25 Megapixel camera has a total radiation dose tolerance exceeding 5 MRads (50 kGy).
In addition, Sira will be displaying a stereo imaging endoscope for internal imaging.
The direct-view display provides the surgeon with a 3D view for easier comprehension.
With a strong commitment to research, experimentation and commercialisation of optical-based instruments, Sira is inviting Medica 2004 attendees to visit booth C72 in Hall 13 to discuss their engineering requirements.
