ISO 10079-1 is an international standard that specifies safety and performance requirements for medical suction equipment that are common to all parts of the ISO 10079 series.
ISO 10079-1specifies safety and performance requirements for electrically powered medical and surgical suction equipment. ISO 10079-1applies to equipment used in health care facilities such as hospitals, for domiciliary care of patients, and for field use and transport use.
ISO 10079-1 on <standard title> is useful for:
Manufacturers can use type tests different from those detailed within ISO 10079-1 if an equivalent degree of safety is obtained.
As a user of ISO 10079-1, you can be ensured of safety and performance requirements for electrically powered medical and surgical suction equipment. With obedience and compliance to ISO 10079-1, you can efficiently manufacture high-quality electrically powered medical and surgical suction equipment. ISO 10079-1 helps you to build consumer trust and confidence in the product. With ISO 10079-1 you can be ensured that the products consistently meet and exceed quality assurance targets. With ISO 10079-1 you can ensure the safety of end consumers against electric shock and other hazards.
Complying with ISO 10079-1 you can minimize the impact of hazards, and demonstrate the reliability, safety, and performance of electrically powered medical and surgical suction equipment, such that they make a positive contribution to possible operation or results.
