The work of preparing International Standar
16、ds is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take
17、 part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is
18、to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility
19、 that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 21531 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 106, Dentistry, Subcommittee SC 4, Dental instruments. BS EN ISO 21531:2009ISO 21531:
20、2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved vIntroduction Graphical symbols are used in many areas of daily life. They give necessary and useful information of many kinds in a visual way. They are used as signals (warning or alarm signals), for general information, as a means of control, for the correct ap
21、plication of machines, instruments, etc. and in may other ways of communication. Their content of information is very often superior to verbal explanations because their information is visually acknowledged instantly and is often kept in memory easier and longer than terms or phonetic explanations.
22、Graphical symbols are internationally understandable without sometimes difficult, possibly misleading and costly translations. Each ISO technical committee is responsible for the selection or creation of graphical symbols within its own field of interest. Graphical symbols may form the main subject
23、of an International Standard, or a single symbol or several symbols may appear as part of a standard covering wider aspects of the subject to which the symbol(s) refer(s). The ISO Technical Management Board has assigned overall responsibility for standardization in the field of graphical symbols to
24、ISO/TC 145, Graphical symbols, and to ISO/TC 10/SC 10, Technical product documentation (tpd) symbols. ISO/TC 210, Quality management and corresponding aspects for medical devices, which is responsible for the development of ISO 15233, has prepared an international guide to the development and regist
25、ration of symbols for use in the labelling of medical devices. This guideline recommends that the proliferation of graphical symbols without international harmonization is undesirable and contrary to these objectives. There is a need for simple, internationally accepted graphical symbols labelling t
26、hat provide general and specific information to the user in a manner that overcomes the limitations of languages. It is in the best interests of safety and health of patients, dentists, dental technicians and other persons, to reduce the confusion inherent in the use of multiple language labelling.
27、Both of these objectives can be met by the use of standardized symbols agreed by consensus on an international basis. The task of determining technical requirements to allow the use of specific symbols is best taken up by bodies expert in the relevant areas. ISO/TC 106/SC 4/WG 5, Number coding syste
28、m, has taken up this responsibility by developing this International Standard. This International Standard has been prepared to reduce the need for multiple translations of words into national languages, to simplify labelling whereever possible and to prevent separate development of different symbol
29、s to convey the same information. This International Standard contains a series of symbols (pictograms) for use in dentistry. Their application should be considered in the literature, for the labelling and packaging of devices used in dentistry, on items of dental equipment and instruments. Their us
30、e is unlimited and a most helpful means of communication within dentistry. BS EN ISO 21531:2009BS EN ISO 21531:2009INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 21531:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved 1Dentistry Graphical symbols for dental instruments 1 Scope This International Standard presents a series of graphi
31、cal symbols for dental instruments. They are set out particularly for this area of dentistry or corresponding specific areas within dentistry. General symbols are taken from relevant ISO, IEC or other international documents. Several new symbols presented by manufacturers or users have been added. B
32、ecause many dental products are considered in some cases as medical devices and in some cases not as medical devices, in dentistry the restricted usage of the symbols specified in ISO 15223 is considered as not practical. It is the intention of this International Standard to expand the application a
33、rea of some graphical symbols specified in ISO 15223 to the whole area of dentistry. Therefore these symbols are listed in this International Standard together with their source document. NOTE In addition to terms used in two of the three official ISO languages (English, French and Russian), this In
34、ternational Standard gives the equivalent terms in the German language; these are published under the responsibility of the member body for Germany (DIN). However, only the terms given in the official languages can be considered as ISO terms. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents
35、 are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

For the user of this International Standard, in order to arrange all symbols necessary for d
38、ental products in one International Standard, some symbols defined by other International Standards are given for information purposes together with a reference to the respective International Standard. Each symbol may be used with a surrounding square. NOTE It is very common in dental practice for
39、symbols used in close proximity to each other to be individually enclosed by a surrounding shape (such as a square) in order to create a clear visual differentiation of where one symbol ends and another begins. 4.2 Use of graphical symbols These graphical symbols are intended to replace text, e.g. o
40、n the labels of dental devices and accessories. The use of symbols presented in the tables below is up to the discretion of the manufacturer. These symbols can be used for labelling of the packaging of dental devices and accessories, in the manufacturers instructions for use, in catalogues and leafl
41、ets and for similar purposes. The use of these symbols is possible without further explanation of the symbols in the accompanying text. 4.3 Size of symbols All graphical symbols and accompanying information shall be legible when viewed under an illumination of 215 lx using normal vision without magn
42、ification at a distance that takes into account the specifics and size of the individual dental device and/or its package. NOTE 1 Colours and minimum dimensions are not specified in this International Standard. NOTE 2 The meaning of each graphical symbol may depend upon its orientation in a given re
43、ference system and care should be taken to avoid ambiguity (e.g. by rotating or mirroring). 4.4 Representation of names of languages and dates The language code used for the representation of names of languages is the two-letter code (alpha-2 code) in accordance with ISO 639-1. The data code used fo
44、r representation of dates is in accordance with ISO 8601.
