Draft EU GPP Criteria for Health Care EEE Green Public Procurement (GPP) is a voluntary instrument. This document provides the EU GPP criteria developed for electrical and electronic equipment used in the health care sector (health care EEE). The accompanying Technical Background Report provides full details on the reasons for selecting these criteria and references for further information. It is proposed to set core and comprehensive criteria for health care EEE: The core criteria are those suitable for use by any contracting authority across the Member States and address the key environmental impacts. They are designed to be used with minimum additional verification effort or cost increases. The comprehensive criteria are for those who wish to purchase the best products available on the market. These may require additional verification effort or a slight increase in cost compared to other products with the same functionality. Detailed information about the health care EEE product group, including the information about related legislation and other sources can be found in the Technical Background Report. Definition and Scope This document covers procurement actions for health care EEE. For the purposes of these criteria, health care EEE includes both high and low voltage equipment. It covers the complete care cycle (prevention, diagnostic, therapy and care). According to the standard 60601-1 medical electrical equipment is defined as: - Medical Electrical Equipment provided with not more than one connection to a particular supply mains (immobile equipment) and intended to diagnose, treat, or monitor the patient under medical supervision and which makes physical or electrical contact with the patient and/or transfers energy to or from the patient and/or detects such energy transfer to or from the patient. The equipment includes those accessories as defined by the manufacturer which are necessary to enable the normal use of the equipment. - Mobile Medical Electrical Equipment which is transportable equipment intended to be moved from one location to another between periods of use while supported by its own wheels or equivalent means. Regarding product groups excluded from the scope, see the Technical Background Report. The procurement criteria in this document are intended to be used in the procurement of the following products: Anaesthesia equipment- ventilator onitoring equipment Computed Tomography (CT) Electrocardiographic (ECG) equipmentdiagnostic Endoscopic equipment Flusher disinfector ialysis equipment iathermy equipment
The tests shall be carried out in a room that has an air speed close to the product under test of ≤0,5 m/s, according to the standard EN 50564:2011; 4.2 Test room, or equivalent. The ambient temperature shall be maintained at (23 ± 2) °C throughout the test. The power measurement device shall be calibrated with traceability document, i.e. a document which describes the method of calibration which shows that the measuring device is calibrated according to prevailing standards and that the calibration can be traced. Customised use scenario, test conditions The power measurement device shall be calibrated with traceability document, i.e. a document which describes the method of calibration which shows that the measuring device is calibrated according to prevailing standards and that the calibration can be traced. Other conditions During the tests the temperature of incoming water shall be 15 degrees according to EN 285:2006 or equivalent. The sterilization/ disinfection result shall comply with prevailing standards. Appendix 5 Computed tomography
