  • Page 6: Acronyms And Definitions

    ACRONYMS AND DEFINITIONS DUT: Device Under Test. Applied Part: part of the device designed for physical contact with the patient. F-Type Applied Part: applied part electrically isolated from the ground and other medical device parts. B-Type Applied Part: part applied in compliance with specified requirements for protection against electric shock.
  • Page 7: Iec 60601 Symbology

    IEC 60601 SYMBOLOGY CONCEPTS In their approval processes, manufacturers of medical and hospital devices carry out extensive tests to verify the device’s performance at the end of the production line. In these processes, it is recommended to carry out checks that ensure no risk of harm to the patient and operator as soon as the device is approved for use.
  • Page 8 Design: In the first stage, the device is designed pursuant to IEC 60601 (if applicable). Product Testing: During the production stage, the hardware and software of the device are assembled and verified pursuant to IEC 60601. Approval for Use: the device has passed the tests and is ready for use. Operator training: an extremely important step that guarantees the good use of the device and provides the operator with the best usage practices and their functionalities.

  • Page 21: Leakage Current Test

    LEAKAGE CURRENT TEST The Leakage Current Test is a procedure that aims to verify the value of leakage current to the ground from the ground pin of the device and its applied parts. This test is done directly and in reverse. In addition, it is possible to activate each channel of the applied parts and activate individually: Phase, Neutral, and Ground.
