10 Annual Inspection
Manufacturer’s specification The manufacturer stipulates that qualified personnel or hospital technicians
must regularly test the device to assess its functionality and technical safety.
These inspections have to be carried out on an annual basis. Regular inspections
will assist in early detection of possible malfunctions. This helps preserve the de-
vice and increases its safety and service life.
Inspection tests The tests described in this chapter are designed specifically for trained personnel
or a hospital technician. The operation of the device as well as its functionality
and serviceability are easily checked. Each test conducted must be documented
with date and signature in Chapter 16.1 "Test Log".
Measured Values and Tolerances Each test conducted must be documented with date and signature on the test log
(chapter 16 Test Log).
The following measuring tools and resources were used by the manufacturer to
determine the measurements and tolerance levels:
WARNING!
An authorized service technician must check the device if the specified parame-
ters and tolerances are exceeded.
10.1 Electrical Safety Test
1. Perform a visual inspection. Make sure that
• the fuse corresponds with the specifications indicated by the manufactur-
er,
• labels and stickers on device are legible,
• the mechanical condition of the device allows for its safe use,
• the device is clean to ensure proper and safe functionality.
2. Carry out the measurements for the ground leakage current, short-circuit
current/housing leakage current, and the protective conductor resistance as
per IEC 62353 in the current version or according to the applicable national
standard.
