Standard EN EN DE
Connector, Touch Proof, for Electromedical Application
Also Known As:
The DIN 42802 standard is specifically designed for connectors used in the electromedical field, particularly for connecting electrode-leads to patient cables in monitor equipment. The standard focuses on ensuring the safety of the connectors by requiring a touch proof construction. This means that the connectors must be designed in a way that eliminates the risk of electrical hazards in the event of accidental exchange or disconnection.
By implementing the requirements set out in the DIN 42802 standard, the connectors provide a high level of safety for both patients and medical professionals. The standard aims to prevent any potential harm that may arise from the incorrect connection of electrode-leads to patient cables. It establishes a set of guidelines and specifications that manufacturers must adhere to in order to ensure that their connectors meet the touch proof requirements.
