Conical fittings with a 6% (Luer) taper for syringes, needles and certain other medical equipment - Part 1: General requirements (ISO 594-1:1986)

This part of ISO 594 specifies requirements for conical fittings with a 6 % (Luer) taper for use with hypodermic syringes and needles and with certain other apparatus for medical use such as transfusion and infusion sets.  It covers conical fittings made of rigid and of semi-rigid materials and includes test methods for gauging and performance. It excludes provision for more flexible or elastomeric materials.  Figure 1 illustrates typical male 6 % (Luer) conical fitting ('male fitting') and female 6  % (Luer) conical fitting ('female fitting').  Note: It is not practicable to define the characteristics of rigid or semi-rigid materials with precision, but glass and metal may be considered as typical rigid materials. By contrast, many plastic materials may be regarded as semi-rigid although the wall thickness is an important factor influencing the rigidity of a component.

Kegelverbindungen mit einem 6% (Luer) Kegel für Spritzen, Kanülen und bestimmte andere medizinische Geräte - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen (ISO 594-1:1986)

Dieser Teil von ISO 594 behandelt im einzelnen Anforderungen für Kegel- verbindungen mit einem 6 % (Luer) Kegel zur Verwendung bei Injektionsspritzen und -kanülen sowie bei bestimmten anderen medizinischen Transfusions- und Infusionsgeräten. Behandelt werden Kegelverbindungen aus starren und halbstarren Werkstoffen, im weitern werden Verfahren zur Prüfung der Masse und der Gebrauchstauglich- keit aufgeführt. Ausgenommen sind Bestimmungen für weiche und elastomerische Werkstoffe.

Assemblages coniques a 6% (Luer) des seringues et aiguilles et de certains autres appareils a usage médical - Partie 1: Spécifications générales (ISO 594-1:1986)

La présente partie de l'ISO 594 fixe les spécifications pour les assemblages coniques à 6 % (Luer) des seringues et aiguilles et de certains autres appareils à usage médical, tels que le matériel de transfusion et de perfusion. Ces spécifications s'appliquent aux assemblages coniques constitués de matériaux rigides ou semi-rigides et incorporent des méthodes d'essai pour le calibrage et les performances. Elles ne concernent pas les raccords constitués de matériaux souples ou en élastomères. La figure 1 donne un exemple de raccord conique à 6 % (Luer) mâle («raccord mâle») et de raccord conique à 6 % (Luer) femelle («raccord femelle»).
NOTE -- En pratique, il n'est pas possible de définir avec précision les caractéristiques de ces matériaux rigides ou semi-rigides; cependant le verre et le métal peuvent être considérés comme des matériaux rigides typiques. En revanche, de nombreux matériaux plastiques peuvent être qualifiés de semi-rigides, tout en considérant que l'épaisseu

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International
Standards is normally carried out through IS0 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, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
International Standard IS0 59411 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 84,
Syringes for medical use and needles for injections.
Together with IS0 594/Z, it cancels and replaces IS0 Recommandation R 594-1967, of
which it constitutes a technical revision.
Users should note that all International Standards undergo revision from time to time
and that any reference made herein to any other International Standard implies its
latest edition, unless otherwise stated.
