17、ERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover equipment and materials intended for installation and use in ammable anesthetizing locations where accumulation of static electricity presents a risk of re or ex

18、plosion due to the possibility of static sparks being generated in the presence of ammable anesthetic-air mixtures. These products provide an electrically conductive path from other electrically conductive objects and patients to ground. 1.2 The products covered by this standard include bonding appl

19、iances, casters, anesthesia face masks and anesthesia reservoir bags, breathing tubes, footwear, hose and tubing, mattresses and pads, sheeting, and restraint straps. 1.3 The products covered are for use in accordance with Article 517 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and Chapter 3 of the St

20、andard for Health Care Facilities, NFPA 99. 1.4 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that involves a risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons shall be evaluated using

21、 the appropriate additional component and end-product requirements as determined necessary to maintain the acceptable level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this Standard. A product whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conict with specic provisions o

22、f this Standard cannot be judged to comply with this Standard. Where considered appropriate, revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in conformance with the methods employed for development, revision and implementation of this standard. 2 Component 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a co

23、mponent of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. 2.2 A component need not comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not needed in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) I

24、s superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its recognized rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are recognized as being incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such com

25、ponents are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits and shall be used only under those specic conditions for which they have been recognized.

26、OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 3 Units of Measurement 3.1 When a value for measurement is followed by a value in other units in parentheses, the rst stated value is the requirement. 4 Undated References 4.1 Any undated reference to a code or standards appearing in the requirements of thi

27、s standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 5 Glossary 5.1 For the purpose of this standard the following denitions apply. 5.2 CONDUCTIVE Electrically conductive. 5.3 ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE MATERIAL A material electrically conductive to a degree that

28、 the product will discharge or prevent the accumulation of static electricity, or both, in accordance with these requirements. 5.4 NONCONDUCTIVE Electrically nonconductive. CONSTRUCTION 6 Material 6.1 A product need not be constructed of conductive material throughout. See 6.2 6.8 and the Test for A

29、ccumulation of Static Electricity, Section 17. 6.2 The conductive material of a bonding appliance, a caster, and footwear, when mounted or used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, shall contact the oor without interruption for a distance of at least 5/8 inch (15.9 mm) in at least one

30、dimension. See 6.3. 6.3 The requirement in 6.2 necessitates that the conductive material of footwear contact the oor as specied, both at the sole and at the heel. 6.4 All exposed surfaces of a mattress and a pad shall be constructed of conductive material throughout. Nonconductive parts may be provi

31、ded on the exposed surfaces, for example, fasteners, when the Test for Accumulation of Static Electricity, Section 17, shows such parts do not present a risk of explosion. 6.5 The method of closure of a mattress and a pad shall be such that metal parts are: a) Electrically interconnected; or b) Prot

32、ected by conductive material. SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 UL 1067 5UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 6.6 All accessories on an anesthesia machine that are required to be resilient or exible and that form part of an interconnecting elect

33、rically conductive pathway, such as tubing, inhalers, anesthesia reservoir bags, head straps, retainers, face masks, and similar items, shall be conductive material throughout. 6.7 To reduce the risk of percussion sparks, a product used on mobile equipment, such as a bonding appliance or a caster, s

34、hall employ a material such as aluminum, brass, or bronze, for metal parts that contact the oor or may be struck or strike against foreign objects when used as intended. 6.8 Footwear shall not have a metal part, such as a nail, that contacts the oor during intended use. PERFORMANCE 7 General 7.1 Whe

48、thyl ether, vapor, or liquid, extreme precautions should be taken. Ethyl ether is extremely ammable. It is a severe re and explosion hazard when exposed to heat or ame. It forms explosive peroxides, and has physiological effects through inhalation and skin absorption. 12.2 Samples or specimens are t

49、o be subjected to the applicable exposure tests specied in 12.4 12.8 also see 12.3. Except as specied in 12.3 and 12.7, electrical resistance is to be measured during and immediately after exposure. 12.3 As an alternative to the exposure to saturated vapor as specied in 12.4 12.6 and 12.8, samples or specimens shall be immersed in liquid ethyl ether for 15 minutes, when agreeable to those concerned. Electrical resistance is to be measured immediately after exposure. 12.4 ANESTHESIA FAC
