Every charger and power unit that leaves our factory reflects our commitment to high quality and meticulous attention to detail. Ensuring that each product meets our stringent standards and complies with relevant certifications is crucial. To this end, we have recently upgraded our testing capabilities.…
Waterproof chargers are required for powering and charging electronic equipment in various industries, which operate in a wide range of different environments. Examples of some of these applications include marine, industrial, and emergency medical aid, allowing the charger or power supply and by extension the complete system to operate despite regular exposure to water, grime and dust.…
Configurable battery chargers offer users the flexibility to adjust charging parameters for increased optimisation and compatibility. Every Mascot CBC is ready for immediate use without the need for configuration. However, they can also be optimised for specific applications.…
Medical certification ensures that electronic equipment meets stringent safety and performance standards. Medical systems must offer optimised, reliable performance, which in turn necessitates a high reliance on power. When patients’ welfare is at stake, the importance of certification cannot be overstated…
Within just a year or so, manufacturers of ICT and AV equipment will have to conform to a new standard for product safety, the IEC 62368-1. The date of withdrawal for the outgoing standards IEC 60950-1 and IEC 60065, is December 20, 2020.…
Every day, objects must be moved, shifted, and lifted, from automotive parts and tax office files to health clinics. And while some of them can be carefully relocated and positioned without recourse to help, plenty of others need a little support. Goods handling is the domain of Expresso, the Kassel-based supplier of ergonomic working aids in Germany. Their innovative range of products takes the strain out of lifting and moving and reduces the risks to every employer’s most valuable asset – their employees.…
With product lifetimes in many areas such as mobile phone shortening, the waste from electronic and electrical equipment (EEE), also known as electronic waste or e-waste, has become one of the fastest growing waste problems worldwide.…

International power supply specialist Mascot has once again demonstrated the prowess of its manufacturing operation and global supply chain by delivering a rapid ramp-up in battery charger production to help one of its major global customers support the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.…
A future-proofed battery solution Lithium ion batteries have in the past few years become the preferred choice in a broad spectrum of applications. It’s easy to see why: they are versatile, boast high energy density and low self-discharge - below half of that of nickel-based batteries - and require little maintenance. But they have their limitations too: issues around transportation are well-documented and they are also subject to aging, even when not in use, while a protection circuit is invariably needed to maintain voltage and current within safe limits. Unsurprisingly, the search for the ‘perfect’ battery solution continues unabated, and an increased area of focus is sodium ion products.…
