Testing medical gas systems

Testing medical gas systems

The central supply of medical gases to individual departments in a healthcare facility is tremendously important and at the same time very complex. An error in the system or a failure can have serious consequences for the health and life of patients. So it is all the more important that medical gas systems work properly.
TÜV AUSTRIA Medical Technology carries out periodic tests of your systems according to the manufacturers’ instructions and/or the pertinent standards.
Medical gas systems supply medical equipment with the necessary gases such as oxygen, medical compressed air, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide or vacuum. These systems consist of sources, the supply network, valve boxes, extraction points and the necessary alarm devices.
