Sterilization - Steam sterilizers - Large sterilizers
EN 285:2015+A1:2021

This European Standard specifies requirements and the relevant tests for large steam sterilizers primarily used in health care for the sterilization of medical devices and their accessories contained in one or more sterilization modules. The test loads described in this European Standard are selected to represent the majority of loads (i.e. wrapped goods consisting of metal, rubber and porous materials) for the evaluation of general purpose steam sterilizers for medical devices. However, specific loads (e.g. heavy metal objects or long and/or narrow lumen) will require the use of other test loads.
This European Standard applies to steam sterilizers designed to accommodate at least one sterilization module or having a chamber volume of at least 60 l.
Large steam sterilizers can also be used during the commercial production of medical devices.
This European Standard does not specify requirements for equipment intended to use, contain or be exposed to flammable substances or substances which could cause combustion. This European Standard does not specify requirements for equipment intended to process biological waste or human tissues.
This European Standard does not describe a quality management system for the control of all stages of the manufacture of the sterilizer.
NOTE 1   Attention is drawn to the standards for quality management systems e.g. EN ISO 13485.
NOTE 2   Environmental aspects are addressed in Annex A.

EN ISO 15883-4:2018

This document specifies the particular requirements, including performance criteria for washerdisinfectors
(WD) that are intended to be used for cleaning and chemical disinfection of thermolabile
endoscopes.
This document also specifies the performance requirements for the cleaning and disinfection of the
washer-disinfector and its components and accessories which can be required to achieve the necessary
performance criteria.
The methods, instrumentation and instructions required for type testing, works testing, validation
(installation, operational and performance qualification on first installation), routine control and
monitoring, and requalification of WD periodically and after essential repairs, are also specified.
NOTE 1 In addition, Annex A gives guidance on an appropriate division of responsibility for the range of
activities covered by this document.
NOTE 2 WD complying with this document can also be used for cleaning and chemical disinfection of other
thermolabile re-usable medical devices for which the device manufacturer has recommended and validated this
method of disinfection.
WD complying with the requirements of this document are not intended for cleaning and disinfection
of medical devices, including endoscopic accessories, which are heat stable and can be disinfected or
sterilized by thermal methods (see ISO 15883-1:2006+Amd 1:2014, 4.1.5).
The specified performance requirements of this document do not ensure the inactivation or removal of
the causative agent(s) (prion protein) of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies.
NOTE 3 If it is considered that prion protein might be present, particular care is needed in the choice of
cleaning agents and disinfectants to ensure that the chemicals used do not react with the prion protein and/or
other protein in a manner that can inhibit its removal or inactivation from the load or washer-disinfector.
NOTE 4 This document can be used by prospective purchasers and manufacturers as the basis of agreement
on the specification of the WD, manufacturers of endoscopes, cleaning products, and disinfecting products.

This European Standard specifies the performance requirements and test methods for small steam sterilizers and sterilization cycles which are used for medical purposes or for materials that are likely to come into contact with blood or body fluids.
This European Standard applies to automatically controlled small steam sterilizers that generate steam using electrical heaters or use steam that is generated by a system external to the sterilizer.
This European Standard applies to small steam sterilizers used primarily for the sterilization of medical devices with a chamber volume of less than 60 l and unable to accommodate a sterilization module (300 mm × 300 mm × 600 mm).
The requirements concerning the quality management and risk management are addressed by other standards (e.g. EN ISO 13485, EN ISO 14971).
This European Standard does not apply to small steam sterilizers that are used to sterilize liquids or pharmaceutical products.
This European Standard does not specify safety requirements related to risks associated with the zone in which the sterilizer is used (e.g. flammable gases).
This European Standard does not specify requirements for the validation and routine control of sterilization by moist heat.
NOTE Requirements for the validation and routine control of sterilization by moist heat are given in EN ISO 17665-1.
This European Standard does not specify requirements for other sterilization processes that also employ moist heat as part of the process (i.e. formaldehyde, ethylene oxide).

This part of ISO 15883 specifies general performance requirements for washer-disinfectors (WD) and their accessories that are intended to be used for cleaning and disinfection of re-usable medical devices and other articles used in the context of medical, dental, pharmaceutical and veterinary practice. It specifies performance requirements for cleaning and disinfection as well as for the accessories which can be required to achieve the necessary performance. The methods and instrumentation required for validation, routine control and monitoring and re-validation, periodically and after essential repairs, are also specified. The requirements for washer-disinfectors intended to process specific loads are specified in subsequent parts of this standard. For washer-disinfectors intended to process loads of two or more different types the requirements of all relevant parts of this standard apply. This part of ISO 15883 does not specify requirements intended for machines for use for laundry or general catering purposes. This part of ISO 15883 does not include requirements for machines which are intended to sterilize the load, or which are designated as "sterilizers", these are specified in other standards e.g. EN 285. The specified performance requirements of this standard may not ensure the inactivation or removal of the causative agent(s) (prion protein) of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. This part of ISO 15883 may be used by prospective purchasers and manufacturers as the basis of agreement on the specification of a WD. The test methods for demonstration of compliance with the requirements of this part of ISO 15883 may also be employed by users to demonstrate continued compliance of the installed WD throughout its working life.

This part of ISO 15883 specifies particular requirements for washer-disinfectors (WD) that are intended for
use for the cleaning and thermal disinfection, in a single operating cycle, of re-usable medical devices such as
surgical instruments, anaesthetic equipment, bowls, dishes and receivers, utensils and glassware.
NOTE 1 Thermal disinfection can be achieved by rinsing the load with hot water, exposure to steam or combination of
the two.
The requirements specified in this part of ISO 15883 are applicable in conjunction with the general
requirements specified in ISO 15883-1.
The specified performance requirements of this part of ISO 15883 may not ensure the inactivation or removal
of the causative agent(s) (prion protein) of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies.
NOTE 2 If it is considered that prion protein can be present, particular care is needed in the choice of disinfectants and
cleaning agents to ensure that the chemicals used do not react with the prion protein in a manner that may inhibit its
removal or inactivation.
