Saft primary and rechargeable batteries provide compact, lightweight and reliable power in a wide range of medical equipment. They power devices worn by the patient such as drug dispensing pumps for ambulatory medication or respiratory assistance. They also enable data logger and monitoring systems to be truly portable and wireless.

Emergency and rescue services rely on Saft batteries to power life-saving equipment such as portable defibrillators.

Depending on the application, our batteries may power the device, or provide back-up in case of failure of the main power source.
