Space systems — Human-life activity support systems and equipment integration in space flight — Techno-medical requirements for space vehicle human habitation environments

This document is a second level standard is one of the several others regarding human-life activity support systems and equipment integration in space flight. This document, along with first and third level standards, form a complex three-level international standard entitled "Space systems — Human-life activity support systems and equipment integration in space flight". It is applicable to human space flight programs in all manned space objects, including spacecraft, space stations, lunar and planetary bases, as well as extravehicular activity. It covers all phases for developing a manned space object, such as design, production, tests, operation, and maintenance.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards 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 part in
the work. ISO 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 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 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).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Introduction
This document is intended for developing life support, thermal control by systems of space vehicles and
creating in those vehicles an environment needed to support crew life during a mission to space.
This document, which is a 2nd level standard with respect to ISO 17763 Space systems — Human-life Deleted: .
activity support systems and equipment integration in space flight establishes the area for “Human
Deleted: and
Habitable Environment in Space Flight”. The list of 3rd level standards specifies requirements for the
Deleted: ” and the
habitable environment, which are supported by a suite of life support technical systems.
Deleted: specifying
The objectives of this document are:
— to establish for the developers of life support systems a set of common technical and medical
requirements for crew life support;
— to create a habitation environment for a crew that supports their life activities; and
— to establish common habitable environment standards for supporting crew life activities for the
medical personnel.
