AS IEC 60601.1.8:2017 PDF
Adopts IEC 60601-1-8 to specify basic safety and essential performance requirements and tests for alarm systems in medical equipment (ME) and ME systems and to provide guidance for their application.
This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee HE-003, Medical Electrical Equipment, to supersede AS/NZS 3200.1.8:2005, Medical electrical equipment, Part 1.8: General requirements for safety—Collateral Standard: General requirements, tests and guidance for alarm systems in medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems.
The objective of this Standard is to specify basic safety and essential performance requirements and tests for alarm systems in medical equipment (ME) and ME systems and to provide guidance for their application. This is accomplished by defining alarm categories (priorities) by degree of urgency, consistent alarm signals and consistent control states and their marking for all alarm systems.
