DIN EN 61326-2-6:2013-09

In addition to the scope of DIN EN 61326-1 (VDE 0843-20-1):2013-07, this part of the DIN EN 61326 (VDE 0843-20) series specifies minimum requirements for immunity and emissions regarding electromagnetic compatibility for in vitro diagnostic medical equipment, taking into account the particularities and specific aspects of this electrical equipment and their electromagnetic environment. In vitro diagnostic medical equipment, like conventional electrical equipment for medical purposes, is used in various electromagnetic environments. In vitro diagnostic medical equipment must function in an appropriate and secure manner in domestic environments as well as in environments typical for healthcare facilities (hospitals, clinics, doctor's surgeries). This means that the equipment must have a minimal level of immunity to disturbances as appropriate for such environments. The responsible committee is DKE/K 921.3 "Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit in der Leittechnik" ("Electromagnetic compatibility in control technology") of the German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies of DIN and VDE.
