Comprehensive Solutions to Protect Your Medical Equipment Investment
At The Rad-X Filter, we don’t just provide power filtration products – we deliver expert power quality services designed to identify, prevent, and solve electrical disturbances affecting your critical medical equipment.
Our team brings decades of specialized experience in healthcare power quality management, helping facilities create and maintain optimal operating environments for diagnostic imaging, radiation therapy, and interventional systems.
Identify the Root Cause of Equipment Issues
Experts agree that 70% or more of the problems affecting your critical business equipment may be power quality (PQ) related. 70% or more!
Often, these problems are not easily recognized. They don’t necessarily appear to be so-called “power problems.” The lights don’t have to go out and you don’t always smell smoke!
The truth is that PQ-related problems may cause symptoms that look like “normal” hardware problems or software “bugs.”
Our Proven Approach
For nearly two decades, we have been successfully evaluating power quality problems affecting the operation of sensitive equipment in a variety of business sectors including, but not limited to:
We attribute our success in this difficult area to a thorough understanding of the relationship between power quality and electronic equipment performance.
Simple and Effective Process
Our approach is simple and effective:
First, we evaluate the problem and determine if it is, in fact, power quality related or not.
If it is, we will provide you with recommendations for an appropriate course of action.
If we determine that it is not a PQ-related issue, you will have eliminated an important variable in the troubleshooting process.
Radiated disturbances can be a source of serious problems for certain electronic equipment, particularly sensitive medical imaging and therapy systems.
APQS is prepared to perform complete EMI (Electromagnetic Interference), RFI (Radio Frequency Interference), and ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) testing and mapping to determine:

The Foundation of Your Electrical Environment
The GES is a fundamental component of the facility’s operating environment. Originally designed for electrical safety, the GES has also become the point of zero voltage reference for all electronic equipment in the facility.
That is an important task and as such requires a degree of attention and management.
