4、-1:1998 Amendments issued since publication Amd. No.DateText affected National foreword This British Standard is the English language version of EN 737-1:1998 and covers terminal units for compressed medical gases and vacuum. Together with BS EN 739:1998, which covers hose assemblies and non-interch
5、angeable screw-threaded (NIST) connectors, it partially supersedes BS 5682:1984 (as amended by AMD 5419:1987) which covered hose assemblies, terminal units and their connectors. The remainder of the content of BS 5682:1984, i.e. quick connect probes, is the subject of EN 737-6, currently in preparat
6、ion. When published, EN 737-6 is expected to have a lengthy transitional period, the date of withdrawal of conflicting national standards (DOW) being set several years in the future. BS 5682:1984 will be withdrawn on 13 June 1998 and replaced by a new edition (BS 5682:1998) which will retain only th
7、e requirements for quick connect probes given in the amended 1984 edition. This new edition is expected to co-exist with the forthcoming BS EN 737-6 until the expiry of the DOWof EN 737-6, at which time BS 5682:1998 will be withdrawn. The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technica

28、medical gas pipeline system where the operator makes connections and disconnections for the supply of specified medical gases to anaesthetic machines, lung ventilators or other items of medical equipment, and where a wrong connection may create a hazard to the life of a patient. It is important that
29、 terminal units and their components are designed, manufactured, installed and maintained in such a way as to meet the basic requirements specified in this part of this European Standard. This part of this European Standard pays particular attention to: suitability of materials; gas-specificity; cle
30、anliness; testing; identification; information supplied. In any health care facility, it is strongly recommended that terminal units of only one type (i.e. with the same set of dimensions for probe and socket) are used for any particular gas. During hospital renovation it may be desirable to upgrade
31、 existing medical gas installations rather than renew them completely. It is recognized that with modified terminal units it may not be possible to achieve the flow and pressure drop requirements of this part of this European Standard, due to limitations imposed by the pipeline system itself or by t
32、hose components of the original terminal units that remain in the pipeline system. This part of this European Standard specifies the provision of information for the installation and testing of terminal units. Testing after installation is critical to patient safety and it is essential that terminal
33、 units are not used until full testing in accordance with prEN 737-3 has been completed. Rationales for some of the requirements of this part of this European Standard are given in annex B. These requirements are indicated by the letter R after the clause number. 1 Scope 1.1 This part of this Europe
34、an Standard specifies requirements for terminal units intended for use in medical gas pipeline systems specified in prEN 737-3 for use with the following medical gases: oxygen; nitrous oxide; air for breathing; carbon dioxide; oxygen/nitrous oxide mixture 50 %/50 % (V/V); air for driving surgical to
35、ols; nitrogen for driving surgical tools; vacuum. It is intended especially to ensure the gas-specific assembly of terminal units and to prevent their interchange between different gases. 1.2 This part of this European Standard also specifies requirements for: terminal units for the supply and dispo
36、sal of air for driving surgical tools; probes intended to be connected to the gas-specific connection point which is part of a terminal unit; 1.3 This part of this European Standard does not specify: the dimensions of probes and of the gas-specific connection points of the terminal unit (see prEN 73
37、7-6); the dimensions of NIST connectors (see EN 739); requirements for terminal units for anaesthetic gas scavenging systems (see EN 737-4). 2 Normative references This part of this European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative refe
38、rences are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.
