Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-3: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of short-wave therapy equipment
IEC 60601-2-3:2012 specifies the requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of short-wave therapy equipment. Short-wave therapy equipment are defined as medical equipment for the therapeutic treatment of a patient by exposure to electric or magnetic fields produced in the frequency range of more than 13 MHz but not exceeding 45 MHz. Equipment having a rated output power not exceeding 10 W are exempted from certain requirements of this standard. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60601-2-3 published in 1991 and its amendment 1 published in 1998. This edition constitutes a technical revision and has been aligned with IEC 60601-1:2005.

La CEI 60601-2-3:2012 spécifie les exigences particulières de sécurité de base et de performances essentielles applicables aux appareils de thérapie à ondes courtes. Les appareils de thérapie à ondes courtes sont définis comme les appareils électromédicaux de traitement thérapeutique d'un patient par exposition de celui-ci à des champs électriques ou magnétiques produits dans la plage de fréquences comprises entre 13 MHz et 45 MHz. Les appareils dont la puissance de sortie assignée ne dépasse pas 10 W sont exemptés de certaines exigences de la présente norme. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition de la CEI 60601-2-3 publiée en 1991 et son amendement 1 publié en 1998. Cette édition constitue une révision technique et s'aligne avec la CEI 60601-1:2005.

FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International standard IEC 60601-2-3 has been prepared by subcommittee 62D: Electromedical equipment, of IEC technical committee 62: Electrical equipment in medical practice. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60601-2-3 published in 1991 and its amendment 1 published in 1998. This edition constitutes a technical revision and has been aligned with IEC 60601-1:2005. The text of this particular standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 62D/977/FDIS 62D/993/RVD

– 4 – 60601-2-3 © IEC:2012 This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. In this standard, the following print types are used: – Requirements and definitions: roman type. – Test specifications: italic type. – Informative material appearing outside of tables, such as notes, examples and references: in smaller type. Normative text of tables is also in a smaller type. – TERMS DEFINED IN CLAUSE 3 OF THE GENERAL STANDARD, IN THIS PARTICULAR STANDARD OR AS NOTED: SMALL CAPITALS. In referring to the structure of this standard, the term – “clause” means one of the seventeen numbered divisions within the table of contents, inclusive of all subdivisions (e.g. Clause 7 includes subclauses 7.1, 7.2, etc.); – “subclause” means a numbered subdivision of a clause (e.g. 7.1, 7.2 and 7.2.1 are all subclauses of Clause 7). References to clauses within this standard are preceded by the term “Clause” followed by the clause number. References to subclauses within this particular standard are by number only. In this standard, the conjunctive “or” is used as an “inclusive or” so a statement is true if any combination of the conditions is true. The verbal forms used in this standard conform to usage described in Annex H of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. For the purposes of this standard, the auxiliary verb: – “shall” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is mandatory for compliance with this standard; – “should” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is recommended but is not mandatory for compliance with this standard; – “may” is used to describe a permissible way to ach
