Scope

This part of ISO 7396 specifies requirements for the design, installation, function, performance, documentation, testing and commissioning of anaesthetic gas scavenging disposal systems to ensure patient safety and to minimize exposure of the operator and other persons to anaesthetic gases and vapours. It includes requirements for the power device, pipeline system, performance, non-interchangeability between key components and avoidance of cross connections between anaesthetic gas scavenging (AGS) disposal systems and medical gas and vacuum pipeline systems. NOTE In this part of ISO 7396, the term “pipeline” refers exclusively to pipelines that are part of a dedicated anaesthetic gas scavenging system (AGSS). This part of ISO 7396 is applicable only to those disposal systems intended to be connected via AGSS terminal units conforming to ISO 9170-2 and to AGSS receiving systems conforming to ISO 8835-3. This part of ISO 7396 also applies to: - extensions of existing AGSS disposal systems; - modifications of existing AGSS disposal systems; - modifications or replacement of power devices.
