Rescue systems - Transportation of incubators - Part 1: Interface conditions
This European Standard specifies the requirements for the interface between the ambulance and the incubator and the associated equipment, needed for care and treatment of infants, used in emergency or planned transports to ensure interchangeability and interoperability and to provide uninterrupted care of infants.
This European Standard does not give requirements for the vehicles, crafts, devices or incubators as such; these requirements are found in other standards. However, transport incubators are normally combined with other equipment to form a transport incubator system.
Rettungssysteme - Inkubatortransport - Teil 1: Anforderungen an Schnittstellen
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an die Schnittstellen zwischen dem Rettungsdienstfahrzeug und dem Inkubator sowie der dazugehörigen Ausrüstung fest, die bei Notfall- oder geplanten Transporten für die Pflege und Behandlung von Säuglingen erforderlich ist, um die Austauschbarkeit und Interfunktionsfähigkeit sicherzustellen und die ununterbrochene Pflege der Patienten zu ermöglichen.
In dieser Europäischen Norm sind keine Anforderungen an die Fahrzeuge, Luftfahrzeuge, Geräte oder Inkubatoren selbst festgelegt, diese Anforderungen finden sich in anderen Normen. Transportinkubatoren sind jedoch üblicherweise mit anderen Geräten verbunden und bilden ein „Inkubatortransportsystem“.
Systèmes de sauvetage - Transport d'incubateurs - Partie 1 : Conditions d'interface
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences relatives à l'interface entre l'ambulance et l'incubateur et les équipements associés, nécessaires pour les soins et le traitement des nourrissons, utilisé en cas de transports d'urgence ou prévus, pour assurer l'interchangeabilité et l'interopérabilité et pour fournir des soins sans interruption aux patients.
La présente Norme européenne ne donne pas d'exigences pour les véhicules, les aéronefs, les dispositifs ou incubateurs en tant que tels; ces exigences se trouvent dans d'autres normes. Cependant, les incubateurs de transport sont normalement combinés avec d'autres équipements pour former un "système de transport d'incubateur ".
Reševalni sistemi - Prevoz inkubatorjev - 1. del: Pogoji za vmesnike
Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za vmesnike med reševalnim vozilom ter inkubatorjem in povezano opremo, potrebno za nego in zdravljenje dojenčkov, ki se uporabljajo pri reševalnih ali načrtovanih prevozih za zagotavljanje zamenljivosti in interoperabilnosti ter nemotene oskrbe bolnikov.
Ta evropski standard ne podaja zahtev za sama vozila, objekte, naprave ali inkubatorje; te zahteve so navedene v drugih standardih. Vendar pa se transportni inkubatorji običajno uporabljajo skupaj z drugo opremo, ki sestavlja »sistem za transport inkubatorja«.
General Information

Overview
EN 13976-1:2018 - published by CEN - defines interface requirements for the transportation of neonatal transport incubators. The standard focuses on the physical, electrical and gas interfaces between a transport incubator (or transport incubator system) and the ambulance or aircraft to ensure interchangeability, interoperability and uninterrupted clinical care during emergency and planned transfers. It does not set vehicle or incubator performance limits (those are covered in other standards), but specifies how components connect, fix and power together.
Key Topics
- Fixation and mechanical interfaces
- Use of a track/stud system (ISO 7166 configuration) to allow interchangeable mounting between incubator systems and stretcher/undercarriage.
- Specified stud centre spacing and track lengths to ensure cross-compatibility and quick-release functionality for tool-free release.
- Electrical interfaces and power
- Transport incubator systems must operate from 12 V DC, 24 V DC and 230 V AC/50 Hz supplies.
- Maximum power limits when connected to external supply (examples in the standard): 230 V AC - 1200 W; 24 V DC - 720 W; 12 V DC - 360 W.
- Low-voltage connector requirements: lockable, enclosed four‑pole connector specified to MIL‑DTL‑5015H characteristics (reverse bayonet coupling, labelled voltages, protection against incorrect connection).
- Guidance on adapters, labelling, single-supply connection and recommendation to use the highest available voltage to reduce DC current-related heating risks.
- Medical gas interfaces
- Provision of medical oxygen and medical air for at least one hour (referencing EN 60601-2-20).
- Minimum flow capability (standard specifies a flow requirement of at least 15 L/min); connectors to comply with national/regional medical gas standards.
- Cross-border adapter guidance (ENV 737-6:2003) and requirement that non-fixed items (hoses/adapters) are considered part of the transport incubator system.
Applications
Who uses EN 13976-1:2018 and why:
- Manufacturers of transport incubators and accessory equipment - to design compatible fixation, power and gas connectors.
- Ambulance and air‑ambulance OEMs / retrofitters - to provide compliant mounting points and electrical/gas interfaces.
- Hospital procurement and clinical engineering teams - to specify interoperable transport incubator systems and adapters for cross-facility transfers.
- Ambulance services and neonatal transport teams - to ensure safe, uninterrupted care during transfers and cross-border transport.
Related Standards (selected)
- EN 1789 (road ambulances)
- EN 13718‑1 / EN 13718‑2 (air ambulances)
- EN 60601‑2‑20 (infant transport incubators)
- EN ISO 407, EN ISO 7396‑1/2, EN ISO 9170‑1 (medical gas connections)
- ISO 7166 (rail/stud configuration)
- MIL‑DTL‑5015H (electrical circular connector)
- ENV 737‑6:2003 (gas connector adapters)
EN 13976-1:2018 is essential when specifying or procuring neonatal transport systems to guarantee safe mechanical, electrical and gas interoperability across vehicles and care settings.

The article discusses the European Standard EN 13976-1:2018, which focuses on the interface conditions for the transportation of incubators in rescue systems. The standard outlines the requirements for the interface between ambulances and incubators, as well as the associated equipment necessary for the care and treatment of infants during emergency or planned transports. The aim is to ensure interchangeability and interoperability, allowing for uninterrupted patient care. It is important to note that the standard does not cover requirements for vehicles, crafts, devices, or incubators themselves, as those are addressed in separate standards. However, it highlights that transport incubators are typically used in combination with other equipment to form a "transport incubator system."
