31 - B2 GENERAL

Specifies basic requirements for breathing attachments for anaesthetic apparatus, including the sequence and dimensions of cone and socket joints (conical fittings) of 15mm, 19mm, 22mm, 23mm and 30mm sizes, used for adult and paediatric purposes. Dimensions and form of screw-threaded, weight-bearing connections for use with attachments for anaesthetic apparatus and ventilators are also specified.

This Standard specifies basic requirements for breathing attachments for anaesthetic apparatus, including the sequence and dimensions of cone and socket joints (conical fittings) of 15 mm, 19 mm, 22 mm, 23 mm and 30 mm sizes, used for adult and paediatric purposes.A conical fitting of 30 mm size is specified for scavenging. A 23 mm conical fitting is specified for vaporizers and manifold attachments outside the breathing system. The basic requirements for fresh gas inlets to components of breathing systems are also specified.The Standard also deals with dimensions and form of screw-threaded, weight-bearing connections for use with attachments for anaesthetic apparatus and ventilators.The 15 mm and 22 mm cones are intended primarily for use with breathing attachments. The 19 mm, 23 mm and 30 mm cones are intended for other applications which are not within the breathing system.22 mm screw-threaded, weight-bearing connections may be used to produce a more permanent connection between components than that provided by the cone and socket joint. They are particularly designed to allow heavy components to be safely mounted at the outlet from an anaesthetic or breathing machine to the inlet of a breathing system.
