Matériel respiratoire et anesthésique — Raccords basse pression à tête filetée non interchangeables (NIST) pour gaz médicaux

A new edition is under development: ISO/DIS 18082.

Abstract / scope

ISO 18082:2014 specifies the dimensions, the allocation and marking of non-interchangeable screw-threaded (NIST) connectors intended to be used at operating pressures up to 1 400 kPa, and for vacuum systems at pressures not greater than 60 kPa absolute.

ISO 18082:2014 specifies NIST connectors intended for use with the following medical gases:

  • oxygen;
  • nitrous oxide;
  • medical air;
  • helium;
  • carbon dioxide;
  • xenon;
  • specified mixtures of the gases listed above;
  • oxygen-enriched air;
  • air for driving surgical tools;
  • nitrogen for driving surgical tools;
  • use with vacuum.
