4 Requirements
4.1 General
For any material, preformed sterile barrier system or sterile barrier system, the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1 shall apply.
This part of EN 868 only introduces performance requirements and test methods that are specific to the products covered by this part of EN 868 but does not add or modify the general requirements specified in EN ISO 11607-1.
As such, the particular requirements in 4.3 can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more but not all of the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1.
NOTE 1 Compliance to EN 868-10 does not automatically mean compliance to EN ISO 11607-1.
A confirmation of compliance to EN 868-10 shall contain a statement whether EN ISO 11607-1 is covered.
NOTE 2 When additional materials are used inside the sterile barrier system in order to ease the organization, drying or aseptic presentation (e.g. inner wrap, indicators, packing lists, mats, instrument organizer sets, tray liners or an additional envelope around the medical device) then other requirements, including the determination of the acceptability of these materials during validation activities, can apply.
4.2 Materials
4.2.1 The coated material shall be translucent or opaque and made of continuous filaments of polyolefines of a high level of purity and shall not release any substances in such quantities as could constitute a health risk.
NOTE Attention is drawn to EN ISO 10993-1.
4.2.2 The coated material shall not react with, contaminate, transfer to, or adversely affect the product packed in it. before, during or after sterilization.
4.2.3 Conditioned material for testing shall comply with the test sample conditioning requirements of EN ISO 11607-1:2017, Clause 4.
4.3 Performance requirements and test methods
4.3.1 No colour shall leach out of the material. Compliance shall be tested by visual examination of a hot extract prepared in accordance with the method given in ISO 6588-2 modified to test temperature of
(60 ± 5) °C.
4.3.2 The average mass of 1 m2 of the conditioned material when tested in accordance with EN ISO 536 shall be within ± 15 % of the nominal value stated by the manufacturer.
4.3.3 The tensile strength of the conditioned material shall be not less than 4,8 kNlm in the machine direction and not less than 5,0 kN/m in the cross direction when tested in accordance with EN ISO 1924-2.BS/EN 868-10-2018 pdf download.
