This European Standard specifies requirements for antistatic and non-antistatic reservoir bags for use with
anaesthetic apparatus or lung-ventilator breathing systems. It includes requirements for the design of the neck, size
designation, distension and, where relevant, for electrical resistance.
This document is not applicable to special-purpose bags, for example bellows and self-expanding bags. Bags for
use with anaesthetic gas scavenging systems are not considered to be anaesthetic reservoir bags and are thus
outside the scope of this document.
