Medical

Interface solutions for medical device and equipment applications.

Medical device controls require sealed, cleanable surfaces that support strict hygiene protocols. RNC solid-state switches and panels provide smooth, crevice-free metal interfaces that are easy to sterilize, resistant to cleaning agents, and reliable across high-cycle clinical use.

Hygiene-compatible surfaces

Smooth, seamless metal with no crevices or harboring points. Easy to wipe, spray, or autoclave sterilize.

Chemical resistance

Unaffected by medical-grade disinfectants, alcohol solutions, and cleaning agents. No surface degradation.

Sealed and reliable

IP69K sealed. 50 million activations. Consistent operation through years of clinical use.

Applications

Equipment applications suited to solid-state interfaces.

Diagnostic imaging

MRI, CT, and ultrasound controls. Crevice-free surfaces that wipe clean between patients.

Surgical equipment

OR tables, surgical lights, operating room consoles. IP69K for fluid splash, IK10 for impact.

Patient monitoring

Bedside and portable monitoring. Sealed for disinfection protocols and gloved operation.

Infusion and dispensing

IV pump and fluid management interfaces. No crevices to retain medication residue.

Laboratory and analytical

Lab instruments and analytical equipment. Resistant to IPA, bleach, and enzymatic cleaners.

Standards & compliance

Designed to support medical device qualification.

RNC provides material specifications, test data, and IP69K certification documentation to support device manufacturers through their product qualification and regulatory submission processes.

IEC 60601-1

Medical electrical equipment

Interface components designed to support device manufacturers through IEC 60601-1 safety and essential performance requirements.

IP69K

Sealed for clinical environments

Certified sealed against fluid ingress, high-pressure cleaning, and repeated disinfectant exposure. No gaskets or seals that degrade over a device lifecycle.

Chemical resistance

Disinfectant compatibility

Resistance data available for alcohol solutions, chlorine-based disinfectants, and quaternary ammonium compounds used in clinical and laboratory environments.
