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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
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.
ISO 8835-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 121, Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment,
Subcommittee SC 1, Breathing attachments and anaesthetic machines.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 8835-3:1997), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 8835 consists of the following parts, under the general title Inhalational anaesthesia systems:
⎯ Part 2: Anaesthetic breathing systems
⎯ Part 3: Transfer and receiving systems of active anaesthetic gas scavenging systems
⎯ Part 4: Anaesthetic vapour delivery devices
⎯ Part 5: Anaesthetic ventilators

ISO 8835-3:2007(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 8835 is intended to ensure that, for all practical purposes, an active AGSS will remove
essentially all gases delivered to it and thereby reduce atmospheric pollution to a small fraction of the
uncontrolled level.
It is recognized that there are many factors affecting conditions within the operator’s working environment,
which are outside the control of manufacturers of active AGSSs. These include room ventilation, leakage from
equipment and the choice of anaesthetic technique, all of which are variable. Furthermore, the amount of
pollutant taken up by personnel will be affected by other factors, such as the duration of exposure, their
position in relation to any source of pollution, etc.
Atmospheric pollution by anaesthetic gases is the subject of considerable discussion, and opinions differ as to
the limits that should be allowed in the working environment. Recommendations on permissible levels are
therefore not included in this part of ISO 8835 but can be specified in national standards.
The committee responsible for this part of ISO 8835 has been primarily concerned with limiting the risks to the
patient, which the transfer and receiving systems of AGSS can introduce by altering the function of breathing
systems. The wide range of anaesthetic machines, ventilators and related equipment in general use today has
been taken into account.
Annex F contains rationale statements for some of the requirements of this part of ISO 8835. The clauses and
subclauses marked with an asterix (*) before their number have corresponding rationale contained in Annex F,
included to provide additional insight into the reasoning that led to the requirements and recommandations
that have been incorporated in this International Standard.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 8835-3:2007(E)
Inhalational anaesthesia systems —
Part 3:
Transfer and receiving systems of active anaesthetic gas
scavenging systems
* 1 Scope
This part of ISO 8835 specifies requirements for transfer and receiving systems of active anaesthetic gas
scavenging systems (active AGSSs) intended to reduce exposure of healthcare personnel to anaesthetic
gases and vapours while providing patient protection (e.g. against excessive flow and pressure). This part of
ISO 8835 also specifies requirements for transfer and receiving systems of active anaesthetic gas scavenging
systems in which the power device is integral with the transfer and receiving system.
This part of ISO 8835 does not specify requirements for
⎯ disposal systems which are covered by ISO 7396-2,
⎯ non-active AGSSs (passive AGSSs),
⎯ proximity gas extraction systems (i.e. systems not directly connected to the breathing system or
associated equipment),
⎯ transfer and receiving systems intended for use with flammable anaesthetic as determined by Annex DD
of IEC 60601-2-13:2003.

designed and manufactured from materials that minimize the leaching of substances during normal use.
4.2 Means of pressure relief
The means of pressure relief, if provided, shall be accessible for cleaning and/or servicing.
NOTE When the means of pressure relief is actuated, gases might be spilled into the atmosphere.
4.3 Alternative test methods
The manufacturer may use type tests different from those described within this part of ISO 8835, if an
