Comprehensive Guide to ISO 15883-3 Washer-Disinfectors for Human Waste Containers Laboratory Testing Service

ISO 15883-3 is a widely recognized international standard that governs the testing of washer-disinfectors for human waste containers. This standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is applicable to various industries, including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and food processing.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The testing of washer-disinfectors for human waste containers is regulated by national laws and regulations. In the European Union, for example, the testing is governed by the European Commissions directives on medical devices (MDD) and in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDMD). The testing also complies with the EUs General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

International and National Standards

The standard ISO 15883-3 is based on a number of international standards, including:

  • ISO 15883-1: Washer-disinfectors Part 1: Requirements for washer disinfectors used in medical facilities

  • ISO 15883-2: Washer-disinfectors Part 2: Requirements for washer disinfectors used in healthcare facilities

  • ASTM E2180: Standard Practice for Recovery of Microbiological Test Cultures from Medical Instruments and Equipment

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The standard ISO 15883-3 is developed by the ISO/TC 150 Working Group 5, which consists of experts from various countries and industries. The standard development process involves extensive review and approval by national standards bodies.

    Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve over time to reflect changes in technology, regulatory requirements, or industry practices. ISO 15883-3 has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2006, with the latest edition published in 2020.

    Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with ISO 15883-3 is mandatory for washer-disinfectors used in medical facilities and healthcare settings. The standard applies to all types of washer-disinfectors, including those designed for manual or automated operation.
