Pressure regulators for use with medical gases - Part 1 : pressure regulators and pressure regulators with flow-metering devices

ISO 10524-1:2018 specifies the design, construction, type testing, and marking requirements for pressure regulators (as defined in 3.18) intended for the administration of medical gases and their mixtures in the treatment, management, diagnostic evaluation and care of patients or for gases used for driving surgical tools. Examples of gases include oxygen, medical air and oxygen/nitrous oxide mixtures. ISO 10524-1:2018 applies to pressure regulators: a) intended to be connected to cylinders by the operator; b) with integral flow-metering devices intended to be connected to cylinders by the operator; c) that are an integral part of medical equipment (e.g. anaesthetic workstations, lung ventilators, resuscitators). A pressure regulator can be provided with pressure outlet or flow outlet, and can be adjustable or pre-set. pressure regulators are intended to be fitted to refillable cylinders with a working pressure up to 30 000 kPa ( 300 bar) and can be provided with devices which control and measure the flow of the medical gas delivered.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
