Biomedical equipment compliance testing, preventative maintenance and calibration for hospitals, clinics and specialist medical centres, certified to AS3551 and Australian Standards.
Medical equipment that isn’t regularly tested, calibrated and maintained is a compliance risk — and a patient safety risk. U-Tech Medical provides certified biomedical services to hospitals, day surgeries, GP clinics, pathology labs and specialist centres across Australia, ensuring your equipment is performing at standard and your facility stays accredited.
With more than 30 years in the Australian healthcare sector, our technicians understand the operational demands of medical environments. We work around your schedule, document every service, and provide the compliance certificates your accreditation body requires.

AS/NZS 3551 requires that medical equipment is tested and inspected at regular intervals as part of a documented equipment management program. The frequency depends on equipment risk classification — high-risk equipment is typically tested annually, with some classes requiring more frequent inspection. U-Tech can assess your full equipment register and establish an appropriate testing schedule.
A compliance audit under AS3551 typically covers electrical safety testing, performance verification, calibration checks, visual inspection, and documentation review. At the end of each audit, U-Tech provides a compliance certificate and written service report that can be submitted to your accreditation body.
