• What to Check Before Purchasing Pre-Owned Equipment

When purchasing an exam table, diagnostic monitor, or surgery light, a thorough inspection can protect your investment and ensure patient safety. These are the seven things to check out:

1. Research the Equipment First

Get familiar with the model, its specifications as intended, and some potential problems. This will assist you in the identification of red flags during observation.

2. Look for Physical Damage

Test to ensure there are no signs of rust, cracks, loose parts, exposed wires, or makeshift repairs. Good labels and serial numbers must be visible and legible.

3. Test It in Person

Ensure the unit powers on properly, runs smoothly, and all features respond as intended. If it's software-based, run through the core functions.

4. Ask for Maintenance Logs

Properly maintained equipment must carry service records. The absence of documentation may indicate poor maintenance.

5. Confirm Software & Compatibility

Verify that any installed software is up to date and usable with your current systems.

6. Inquire About Warranty or Return Terms

Some equipment may retain a limited manufacturer's warranty or be covered by seller return policies.

7. Buy from a Reputable Source

Choose a supplier known for its high-quality standards, transparency, and excellent customer service, such as Intriquip.
