MR Safe – an item that poses no known hazards in all MRI environments. Using the terminology, “MR Safe” items are non-conducting, non-metallic, and non-magnetic items such as a plastic Petri dish. An item may be determined to be MR Safe by providing a scientifically based rationale rather than test data.
MR Conditional – an item that has been demonstrated to pose no known hazards in a specified MR environment with specified conditions of use. “Field” conditions that define the MR environment include static magnetic field strength, spatial gradient magnetic field, dB/dt (time rate of change of the magnetic field), radio frequency (RF) fields, and specific absorption rate (SAR). Additional conditions, including specific configurations of the item (e.g., the routing of leads used for a neurostimulation system), may be required.
MR Unsafe – An item that is known to pose hazards in all MRI environments. MR Unsafe items include magnetic items such as a pair of ferromagnetic scissors.
The MRI Tested Fire Extinguisher is an indispensable safety solution, expertly engineered for environments housing MRI equipment. This durable and efficient device is optimized to perform in facilities with MRI products, ensuring exceptional performance and adherence to rigorous safety standards. Specially designed as a rechargeable extinguisher, it provides long-term cost efficiency while effectively addressing Class B and Class C fires, including those caused by flammable liquids and electrical equipment. Its use of carbon dioxide, discharged as a white cloud, quickly smothers fires by eliminating oxygen, making it a clean, non-conductive, odorless, and non-contaminating option for sensitive environments.
Designed for hospitals, imaging centers, and facilities handling advanced MRI equipment, this CO2 fire extinguisher is an essential part of any safety protocol. Supported by a reassuring 5-year warranty, it delivers unparalleled reliability and peace of mind. The MRI Tested Carbon Dioxide Fire Extinguisher represents a vital choice for maintaining safety standards while preserving the integrity of equipment and ensuring operational efficiency in critical care and diagnostic settings.
