(AGSS) terminal units are the points in an AGSS where the operator makes connections and disconnections for the disposal of medical gases and anaesthetic vapours from anaesthetic machines or other items of medical equipment, and where a wrong connection may create a hazard to the life of a patient It is important that terminal units and their components are designed, manufactured, installed and maintained in such a way as to meet the basic requirements specified in this part of this European Standard This part of this European Standard pays particular attention to: ± suitability of materials; ± type-specificity; ± dimensions of probes and type-specific connection points; ± cleanliness; ± testing; ± identification; ± information supplied In any healthcare facility, it is strongly recommended that terminal units of only one type are used for any particular service This part of this European Standard specifies the provision of information for the installation and testing of terminal units Testing after installation is critical to patient safety and it is essential that terminal units are not used until full testing in accordance with prEN 737-2 has been completed Rationales for some of the requirements of this part of this European Standard are given in annex B These requirements are indicated by the letter ªRº after the clause number This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision For undated references, the latest edition of the publication referred to applies prEN 737-2, Medical gas pipeline systems Ð Part 2: Anaesthetic gas scavenging disposal systems EN 1441, Medical devices Ð Risk analysis ISO 554, Standard atmospheres for conditioning and/or testing Ð Specifications Definitions For the purposes of this part of this European Standard, the following definitions apply 3.1 AGSS Type terminal unit
