This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2009-11-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,

Foreword
The text of document 62D/773/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 60601-2-41, prepared by SC 62D,
Electromedical equipment, of IEC TC 62, Electrical equipment in medical practice, was submitted to the
IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60601-2-41 on 2009-11-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60601-2-41:2000.
EN 60601-2-41:2000 was revised to be consistent with EN 60601-1:2006.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2010-08-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2012-11-01
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential requirements of
EC Directive MDD (93/42/EEC). See Annex ZZ.
In this standard, the following print types are used:
– Requirements and definitions: roman type.
– Test specifications: italic type.
– Informative material appearing outside of tables, such as notes, examples and references: in smaller type. Normative text of
tables is also in a smaller type.
– TERMS DEFINED IN CLAUSE 3 OF THE GENERAL STANDARD, IN THIS PARTICULAR STANDARD OR AS NOTED:
SMALL CAPITALS.
In referring to the structure of this standard, the term
– “clause” means one of the seventeen numbered divisions within the table of contents, inclusive of all
subdivisions (e.g. Clause 7 includes subclauses 7.1, 7.2, etc.);
– “subclause” means a numbered subdivision of a clause (e.g. 7.1, 7.2 and 7.2.1 are all subclauses of
Clause 7).
References to clauses within this standard are preceded by the term “Clause” followed by the clause
number. References to subclauses within this particular standard are by number only.
In this standard, the conjunctive “or” is used as an “inclusive or” so a statement is true if any combination
of the conditions is true.
The verbal forms used in this standard conform to usage described in Annex H of the ISO/IEC Directives,
Part 2. For the purposes of this standard, the auxiliary verb:
− “shall” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is mandatory for compliance with this
standard;
− “should” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is recommended but is not mandatory for
compliance with this standard;
− “may” is used to describe a permissible way to achieve compliance with a requirement or test.
An asterisk (*) as the first character of a title or at the beginning of a paragraph or table title indicates that
there is guidance or rationale related to that item in Annex AA.
