Introduction Graphical symbols are used in many areas of daily life. They give necessary and useful information of many kinds in a visual
17、way. They are used as signals (warning or alarm signals), for general information, as a means of control, for the correct application of machines, instruments, etc. and in may other ways of communication. Their content of information is very often superior to verbal explanations because their inform
18、ation is visually acknowledged instantly and is often kept in memory easier and longer than terms or phonetic explanations. Graphical symbols are internationally understandable without sometimes difficult, possibly misleading and costly translations. Each ISO technical committee is responsible for t
19、he selection or creation of graphical symbols within its own field of interest. Graphical symbols may form the main subject 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
20、ISO Technical Management Board has assigned overall responsibility for standardization in the field of graphical symbols to 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 devic
21、es, which is responsible for the development of ISO 15233, has prepared an international guide to the development and registration of symbols for use in the labelling of medical devices. This guideline recommends that the proliferation of graphical symbols without international harmonization is unde
22、sirable and contrary to these objectives. There is a need for simple, internationally accepted graphical symbols labelling that 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,
23、dentists, dental technicians and other persons, to reduce the confusion inherent in the use of multiple language labelling. 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 th
24、e use of specific symbols is best taken up by bodies expert in the relevant areas. ISO/TC 106/SC 4/WG 5, Number coding system, has taken up this responsibility by developing this International Standard. This International Standard has been prepared to reduce the need for multiple translations of wor
25、ds into national languages, to simplify labelling whereever possible and to prevent separate development of different symbols 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 lite
26、rature, for the labelling and packaging of devices used in dentistry, on items of dental equipment and instruments. Their use is unlimited and a most helpful means of communication within dentistry. 4 DIN EN ISO 21531:2009-08 EN ISO 21531:2009 (E) 1 Scope This International Standard presents a serie
27、s of graphical 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 be
28、en added. Because 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 ap
29、plication area 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 Russia
30、n), this International 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 reference
31、d documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 639-1, Codes for the representation of names of languages Part 1: Al

33、O 17724 apply. 5 EN ISO 21531:2009 (E) DIN EN ISO 21531:2009-08 4 Requirements 4.1 General Graphical symbols used to convey the information given in Clause 5 are given in this International Standard. For the user of this International Standard, in order to arrange all symbols necessary for dental pr
34、oducts 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 symbols
35、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. on the la
36、bels 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 leaflets and
37、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 magnificatio
38、n 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 reference
39、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 for repres
40、entation of dates is in accordance with ISO 8601. 6 DIN EN ISO 21531:2009-08 EN ISO 21531:2009 (E) 5 Graphical symbols Table 1 Symbols for specific areas of dentistry N Symbol Title/description/application ISO/IEC registration No. 1 en: prophylaxis fr: prophylaxie de: Prophylaxe ISO 7000-2851 2 en:
