This Particular Standard applies to HIGH-VOLTAGE GENERATORS of medical diagnostic X-RAY GENERATORS and to their subassemblies including the following:
- HIGH-VOLTAGE GENERATORS that are integrated with an X-RAY TUBE ASSEMBLY;
- HIGH-VOLTAGE GENERATORS of radiotherapy treatment simulators.
Where appropriate, requirements for X-RAY GENERATORS are given but only where these concern the functioning of the associated HIGH-VOLTAGE GENERATOR.
This standard excludes
