1.2

This International Standard is applicable to

a) portable and mobile plume evacuation systems
b) local stationary plume evacuation systems
c) dedicated central pipeline systems for plume evacuation systems, and
d) plume evacuation systems integrated into other equipment (e.g. laser equipment).

1.3*
This International Standard does not apply to active and passive devices used to evacuate plume generated during invasive (e.g. laparoscopic or endoscopic) procedures.
