Product Details
CSA Preface
This is the third edition of CAN/CSA-Z5359, Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment — Low-pressure hose assemblies for use with medical gases, medical vacuum, medical support gases, and anaesthetic gas scavenging systems, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 5359 (fourth edition, 2014-10-01) titled Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment — Low-pressure hose assemblies for use with medical gases. It supersedes the previous edition, published in 2010 as CAN/CSA-Z5359, Low-pressure hose assemblies for use with medical gases (adopted ISO 5359:2008).
In this third edition, the title has been modified to reflect the application of the Standard in Canada.
In Canada, low-pressure hose assemblies are classified by Health Canada as Class II Medical Devices.
This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.

NOTE 3 Dimensions and allocation of non-interchangeable screw-threaded (NIST) connectors are specified in ISO 18082 [11].
NOTE 4 Terminal units designed for quick connectors are specified in ISO 9170-1.
1.4
This International Standard does not specify requirements for coaxial hoses used for the supply and removal of air for driving surgical tools.
1.5
This International Standard does not specify the intended uses of hose assemblies.
