Scope
This clause of the General Standard applies except as follows:
1.1 Scope
Addition: This Particular Standard applies to therapeutic X-RAY EQUIPMENT with NOMINAL X-RAY TUBE VOLTAGES in the range 10 kv to 1 MV when connected to alternating current SUPPLY MAINS.
1.2 Object
Replacement: This Particular Standard establishes requirements for the safety of therapeutic X-RAY EQUIPMENT including the requirement for accuracy and reproduciblility of performance to the extent that these are related to RADIATION QUALITY and the quantity of IONIZING RADIATION produced and thus must be considered as aspects of safety.
An object of this Particular Standard is to present the general functional requirements of the demand for safety, rather than any particular technological means of implementation.
1.3 Particular Standards
Additional subclauses:
1.3.101 Relation to the General Standard
