Dispositifs de mesure de débit pour le raccordement aux unités terminales des réseaux de canalisations de gaz médicaux (ISO 15002:2008 adoptée, deuxième édition, 01-07-2008, avec les déviations canadiennes)

1.1
This International Standard is applicable to:
 

• flow-metering devices that are connected, either directly or by means of flexible connecting assemblies, and disconnected by the operator at terminal units of a medical gas pipeline system for flow adjustment, measurement and delivery of medical gases
• flow-metering devices that are connected and disconnected by the operator at gas-specific connection points of devices such as pressure regulators

1.2
This International Standard applies to:

a) flow-metering devices intended to be used with the following medical gases:
 

• oxygen
• nitrous oxide
• medical air
• carbon dioxide
• oxygen/nitrous oxide mixture [50 %/50 % (by volume)]
• specified mixtures of the gases listed above

b) flow-metering devices intended to be used with the following gases
 

• oxygen-enriched air
• helium
• xenon

Note: Regional or national regulations might permit use of oxygen-specific connection points for oxygen-enriched air.

1.3
This International Standard does not apply to electrical or electronic flow-metering devices.

1.4
