Overview

This part of ISO 8536 specifies requirements for non-sterile, single-use graduated flow regulators used as subcomponents in sterilized infusion sets for single use to control the flow of intravenous infusion solutions with fluid contact under gravity feed conditions. In some countries, the national pharmacopoeia or other national regulations are legally binding and take precedence over this part of ISO 8536. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 76 "Transfusion, infusion and injection, and blood processing equipment for medical and pharmaceutical use" (secretariat: DIN, Germany) in collaboration with Technical Committee CEN/TC 205 "Non-active medical devices" (secretariat: DIN, Germany) with the participation of German experts.
