ISO 5356-1 Medical Gauge For Testing HME Patient Port Connector
The ISO 5356-1 Figure A.1 Gauge | HME Patient Port Connector Testing is a precision reference gauge manufactured by KingPo. It is specifically designed to verify the dimensional accuracy and interchangeability of HME patient port conical connectors in anaesthetic and respiratory equipment, in full accordance with ISO 5356-1 Figure A.1.
Technical Parameters
| Parameter | Specification | Remark / Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | ISO 5356-1 Figure A.1 | Reference gauge for HME patient port conical connectors |
| Material | Hardened steel | High wear resistance and long-term dimensional stability |
| Hardness | HRC 58-62 | Ensures durability under repeated use in laboratory testing |
| Gauge Type | Plug / ring reference gauge | Verifies cone and socket dimensions for secure, leak-free connections |
| Application | 15 mm and 22 mm conical connectors | Used with HMEs and breathing systems in anaesthetic and respiratory equipment |
| Certification | ISO 17025 traceable | Supports laboratory accreditation and audit requirements |
The gauge is precision-machined from high-hardness steel (HRC 58-62) to achieve exact dimensional tolerances as specified in ISO 5356-1 Figure A.1. Critical contact surfaces are ground and polished to minimize friction variability while maintaining consistent fit characteristics.
The robust construction prevents deformation even after thousands of test cycles, ensuring repeatable verification of cone angle, diameter, and engagement length. All critical dimensions are controlled to guarantee reliable detection of non-compliant connectors that could lead to leakage or accidental disconnection.
Testing Principle
The gauge is mated with the HME patient port conical connector under controlled conditions to verify dimensional compliance. It checks cone and socket geometry to ensure secure, leak-free connections and proper interchangeability between components from different manufacturers, as required by ISO 5356-1.
Common Error Mitigation
To ensure repeatable and accurate results, always align the connector axially without lateral force and verify that the gauge is clean and free of debris before each test. Regular visual inspection and periodic recalibration help maintain measurement integrity and prevent false pass/fail outcomes.
Primary Use Cases & Business Value
The ISO 5356-1 Figure A.1 Gauge is used by medical device manufacturers and certification laboratories to verify dimensional accuracy and interchangeability of HME patient port connectors. It helps ensure patient safety by preventing leakage and accidental disconnection in critical breathing systems.

ISO 5356-1 Scope
This part of ISO 5356 specifies dimensional and gauging requirements for cones and sockets intended for connecting anaesthetic and respiratory equipment, e.g. in breathing systems, anaesthetic-gas scavenging systems and vaporizers.
This part of ISO 5356 gives requirements for the following conical connectors:
- – 8,5 mm size intended for use in paediatric breathing systems
- – 15 mm and 22 mm sizes intended for general use in breathing systems
- – 22 mm latching connectors (including performance requirements)
- – 23 mm size intended for use with vaporizers, but not for use in breathing systems
- – 30 mm size intended for the connection of a breathing system to an anaesthetic gas scavenging system.
This part of ISO 5356 does not specify the medical devices and accessories on which these connections are to be provided. Requirements for the application of conical connectors are not included in this part of ISO 5356, but are or will be given in the relevant International Standards for specific medical devices and accessories.
NOTE: Requirements for screw-threaded weight-bearing conical connectors are specified in ISO 5356-2.
