37、meters use a flow sensor or a pneumotachometer to measure flow directly and to derive volumes. Flow-sensing spirometers also produce flow-volume loops and volume-time curves.

SANS 451:2008 Edition 1 9 5 Requirements 5.1 Equipment 5.1.1 General 5.1.1.1 The spirometer operator shall

39、ensure that the accuracy of the following equipment can be verified: a) the medical height rod (stadiometer); b) the medical weight scale; c) the barometer; d) the hygrometer; e) the thermometer; and f) the calibrated 3 L syringe. 5.1.1.2 The accuracy of the equipment can be verified through referen

40、ce to documentation provided by the supplier certifying the accuracy thereof, or through calibration of the equipment by an accredited test facility at intervals recommended by the manufacturer of the equipment. Damaged equipment that has been sent for repairs, or when there is reason to suspect the

41、 accuracy of the data produced, shall be recalibrated. 5.1.1.3 Unless a manufacturer states that the equipment will operate accurately at extended ambient conditions, the limits for the accuracy of measurements apply under the following environmental conditions: a) ambient temperature of (17 to 35)

42、C; b) relative humidity of (30 to 75) % RH; and c) ambient pressure of (600 to 1100) hPa or (450 to 825) mm Hg or (60 to 110) kPa. NOTE Millimetres mercury (mm Hg) can be converted to hectoPascals (hPa) by multiplying with 1,33322 and to kiloPascals (kPa) by dividing by 7,5. 5.1.2 Calibrated 3 L syr

43、inge 5.1.2.1 A calibrated 3 L syringe, identifiable by its serial number, shall be used to carry out the calibration check of the volume of the spirometer. The syringe shall have an accuracy of 0,5 % or 15 mL of full scale, whichever is greater. 5.1.2.2 The syringe shall be leak tested periodically

44、(for example, monthly, or more frequently when large numbers of manoeuvres are performed, or when there is reason to suspect the accuracy of the data produced), at more than one volume up to its maximum. The leak test shall be performed by applying pressure to the extended plunger with the outlet oc

45、cluded, and with the components that are going to be used with the syringe attached. Any movement of the plunger indicates a leak. 5.1.2.3 A syringe that has been accidentally dropped, has loose components, or has a leak shall be returned to the manufacturer for repair and recalibration or shall be

46、replaced.
