The work of preparing International Standards is normally carrie
17、d 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 part in the work. IS
18、O collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different
19、approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be
20、the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

24、hts reservedBS EN ISO 9687:2015ISO 9687:2015(E)IntroductionGraphical 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 means of control, for the corr
25、ect application of machines, instruments, etc. and in many 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 explanat
26、ions.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 can form the main subj
27、ect of an International Standard, or a single symbol or several symbols might 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 symbol
28、s to ISO/TC 145, Graphical symbols, and to ISO/TC 10/SC 10, Technical product documentation (tpd) symbols.ISO/TC 210 who is responsible for the development of ISO 15233, prepared an international guide to the development and registration of symbols for use in the labelling of medical devices. This g
29、uideline 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 that provides general and specific information to the user in a manner
30、that overcomes the limitations of languages. It is in the best interest of safety and health of patients, 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 symbol
31、s 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 6/WG 2, Dental patient chair and dental unit, has taken up this responsibility by developing this
32、 International Standard.This International Standard has been prepared to reduce the need for multiple translations of words into national languages, to simplify labelling wherever possible and to prevent separate development of different symbols to convey the same information.This International Stan
33、dard contains a series of symbols (pictograms) for use in dentistry. Their application should be considered in literature 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 withi
34、n dentistry. ISO 2015 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 9687:2015BS EN ISO 9687:2015Dentistry Graphical symbols for dental equipment1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies graphical symbols for dental equipment. It is intended that the symbols are to be used on the appropriate piece of dental equi
35、pment and in documents pertaining to dental equipment, for example in instructions for use, marking, labelling, and technical product documentation.The symbols are selected specifically for all kinds of dental equipment. The majority of the symbols are taken from relevant ISO, IEC, or other internat
36、ional documents. Several new symbols presented by manufacturers or users have been added.NOTE In addition to terms used in two of the three official ISO languages (English, French, and Russian), this International Standard gives the equivalent terms in the German language; these are published under
37、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 referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
