• Additional devices connected to electrical medical devices must
provide evidence of compliance with the relevant IEC or ISO stan-
dards (e.g. IEC 60950 for data-processing devices). Furthermore, all
configurations must comply with the requirements of standards for
medical systems (see IEC 60601-1-1 or Section 16 of the 3rd edi-
tion of IEC 60601-1 respectively). Anyone connecting additional
devices to electrical medical devices is considered a system config-
urer and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the system com-
plies with the requirements of standards for systems. Your attention
is drawn to the fact that local laws take precedence over the above-
mentioned requirements of standards. In the event of any queries,
please contact your local specialist dealer or Technical Service.
