supply systems in which all sources of supply deliver oxygen; in this case the concentration of the oxygen will be greater than 99%;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
supply systems in which all sources of supply deliver oxygen 93; in this case the concentration of the oxygen may vary between 90% and 96%;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nNOTE 4 A mixture of oxygen 93 and oxygen may be delivered by a medical gas supply system. In this case the concentration of the gas can vary between 90% and >99%.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
This part of ISO 7396 also applies to:<\/p>\n
\n
- \n
extensions of existing pipeline distribution systems;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

Oxygen concentrators for domiciliary use are excluded from the scope of this part of ISO 7396.<\/p>\n
\nNOTE 5 Requirements for oxygen concentrators for domiciliary use are specified in ISO 80601\u20112\u201169.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
(*)<\/sup>EN 14931defines additional requirements for hyperbaric application, in particular for flows and<\/sup> pressures of compressed air required to pressurize the hyperbaric chamber and to drive other connected services. Also included are requirements for oxygen and other treatment gases administered to patients.<\/p>\n
This part of ISO 7396 does not apply to vacuum systems intended to be used in dentistry.<\/p>\n
This part of ISO 7396 does not apply to filling systems for transportable cylinders and transportable cylinder bundle systems.<\/p>\n
