Forbatt brings Peak Power quality to SA

12 September 2018 Power Electronics / Power Management

Forbatt SA recently introduced the Peak Power range of power solutions into the South African market. Peak Power is one of the few power supply manufacturers in China having a nationally recognised CNAS (China National Accreditation Service) Laboratory, assuring testing and calibration standards equivalent to ISO/IEC 17025:2005, which can perform product safety and energy efficiency testing according to the scope of review.

Peak Power’s dedication to quality extends beyond an emphasis on OQC (output quality control) and embraces QA (quality assurance) and QC (quality control) best practices to streamline production and ensure that the final products meet the company’s quality criteria. To this end, its factory has implemented such strict quality control systems whereby it has obtained ISO14001 and ISO 9001 certifications for environmental and quality management systems, in addition to its CNAS certification. The factory focuses on quality in the entire manufacturing process and carries out detailed quality management which entails a rigorous review of product design, raw material procurement, production process, ex-factory inspection and after-sales service.

The test report issued by the CNAS laboratory is approved in over 70 countries including China, the USA and most European countries, as well as over 80 certificate authorities. According to Forbatt SA’s Dr Russell Ruiters, “Peak Power can react quickly to its customers providing product testing, safety certification, reliability and other services according to international standards. This can ensure their power supply product is safe, reliable and shortens the product development cycle, providing market opportunities and improving product advantages and market competition.”

All Peak Power products meet or exceed IEC60950-1 standards (Safety of Information Technology Products) and have been issued Letters of Authority by the NRCS (National Regulator for Compulsory Specifications) in South Africa. “Ultimately, Peak Power is a quality partner you can trust where these same standards are built into every one of its CCTV power supplies, AC power supplies/adaptors and DC backup power packs,” says Ruiters.
