Scope
This part of IEC 80601 applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of SCREENING THERMOGRAPHS intended to be used for the individual non-invasive febrile temperature screening of a human under controlled environmental conditions@ hereafter referred to as ME EQUIPMENT. This document sets laboratory characterization test limits for the SCREENING THERMOGRAPH. NOTE 101 A SCREENING THERMOGRAPH is intended for screening of a human subject and detection of SKIN TEMPERATURE elevated above normal. An elevated SKIN TEMPERATURE needs to be followed up by a subsequent temperature measurement using a clinical thermometer (see ISO 80601-2-56 [30]). NOTE 102 The main part of such equipment is commonly referred to as an infrared camera. If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to ME EQUIPMENT only@ or to ME SYSTEMS only@ the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case@ the clause or subclause applies both to ME EQUIPMENT and to ME SYSTEMS@ as relevant.
