IEC 61076-3-119:2017 établit les spécifications et les exigences d’essai pour les connecteurs rectangulaires, libres et fixes protégés à 10 voies, avec couplage push-pull, pour la transmission de données avec des fréquences allant jusqu’à 100 MHz et pour une utilisation dans les environnements industriels.
Ce document spécifie les connecteurs libres et fixes avec des contacts ronds, adaptés aux terminaisons de vis ou de sertissage. D’autres techniques de terminaison, telles que les connexions de soudure ou de panneau imprimé sont sur accord entre le fabricant et l’utilisateur. Les connecteurs libres et fixes disposent d’un mécanisme de verrouillage push-pull pour la protection IP65 et IP67 selon IEC 60529.
Selon ce document, les connecteurs sont sans rupture de capacité COC conformément à 3.9 de l’IEC 61984:2008, donc ils ne sont pas destinés à être engagés ou désengagés dans une utilisation normale lorsqu’ils vivent ou sont sous charge, si ce n’est autrement spécifié par le fabricant.

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 3.
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 part of ISO 10993 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 10993-15 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 194, Biological evaluation of
medical devices.
ISO 10993 consists of the following parts, under the general title Biological evaluation of medical devices:

Introduction
One of the potential health hazards resulting from medical devices may be due to the interactions of their
electrochemically-induced degradation products with the biological system. Therefore, the evaluation of potential
degradation products from metallic materials by methods suitable for testing the electrochemical behavior of these
materials is a necessary step in the biological performance testing of materials.
The body environment typically contains cations of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium and anions of
–3
chloride, bicarbonate, phosphate and organic acids generally in concentrations between 2� 10 mol and
–3
150 � 10 mol. A range of organic molecules such as proteins, enzymes and lipoproteins is also present, but their
concentrations may vary to a great extent. Earlier studies assumed that organic molecules did not exert a
significant influence on the degradation of metallic implants, but newer investigations indicate that implant
— protein interactions should be taken into account. Depending on a particular product or application, altering the
pH of the testing environment may also need to be considered.
In such biological environments, metallic materials may undergo a certain degradation and the different
degradation products may interact with the biological system in different ways. Therefore, the identification and
quantification of these degradation products is an important step in evaluating the biological performance of
medical devices.

Biological evaluation of medical devices —
Part 15:
Identification and quantification of degradation products from
metals and alloys
1 Scope
This part of ISO 10993 provides guidance on general requirements for the design of tests for identifying and
quantifying degradation products from finished metallic medical devices or corresponding material samples finished
as ready for clinical use. It is applicable only to those degradation products generated by chemical alteration of the
finished metallic device in an in vitro accelerated degradation test. Because of the accelerated nature of these
tests, the test results may not reflect the implant or material behavior in the body. The described chemical
methodologies are a means to generate degradation products for further assessments.
This part of ISO 10993 is not applicable to degradation products induced by applied mechanical stress.
NOTE Mechanically induced degradation, such as wear, may be covered in the appropriate product-specific standard.
Where product-group standards provide applicable product-specific methodologies for the identification and quantification of
degradation products, those standards should be considered.
Because of the wide range of metallic materials used in medical devices, no specific analytical techniques are
–6
identified for quantifying the degradation products. The identification of trace elements (< 10 ) contained in the
specific metal or alloy is not addressed in this part of ISO 10993, nor are specific requirements for acceptable
levels of degradation products provided in this part of ISO 10993.
This part of ISO 10993 does not address the biological
