MOOP and MOPP
New IEC60601-1 3rd version catagorized into MOOP and MOPP. IED60601-1 is the global medical equipment standard. The concept of Means of Protection (MOP) leads to IEC60601-1 3rd, which divided into MOPP(Means of Patient Protection) and MOOP(Means of Operator Protection).
According to it, Some countries reorganized to their own standards, like
USA: ANSI/AAMIES 60601-1:2005
EU: EN60601-1: 2005
Canada: CSA-C22.2 No. 60601-1:08
The new difference between MOOP and MOPP in IEC60601-3rd edition is creapage and isolation for medical switching power supply. We listed the differences as below:
classifications |
isolation |
Creapage/clearance |
insulation |
1*MOOP |
1500VAC |
2.5mm/2mm |
basic |
2*MOOP |
3000VAC |
5mm/4mm |
double |
1*MOPP |
1500VAC |
4mm/2.5mm |
basic |
2*MOPP |
4000VAC |
8mm/5mm |
double |
When equipment is used at laboratory and not touch patient, it's enough for power supply to meet 2*MOOP. Meanwhile, the highest level 2*MOPP can be used for patients.
