Hello everyone,
Recently I've been asking around if hyperbaric chambers are under the scope of IEC 60601-1 and I have been getting mixed answers from multiple consultants.
From my point of view, since they do not have applied parts or transfer energy to or from a patient, or detect such energy transference, they wouldn't be considered medical eletrical equipment and therefore would be outside the scope (I currently do not work with any ME equipment so I apologize if I am very wrong here).
Can someone help me figure this out? Why are so many "experts" confused about this?
