What the notification says

The notified draft standard concerns non-invasive non-automated sphygmomanometers, which are widely used in clinics, health centres, hospitals, community health campaigns, and primary care services to monitor a person's blood pressure.• PNMP 026-1:2026 establishes stricter tests and limits, including: (i) maximum permissible error of ±0.4 kPa (±3 mmHg); (ii) error under varying temperature conditions; (iii) tests for air leakage, hysteresis, pressure reduction rate, and stability; and (iv) mechanical safety and durability of markings.• PNMP 026-2:2026 defines harmonized procedures that allow for international traceability: (i) temperature test; (ii) test under extreme storage conditions; (iii) air leakage test; (iv) hysteresis test; (v) durability test; and (vi) shock, vibration, and transport test.• PNMP 026-3:2026 establishes a mandatory format for type approval and verification, which is an essential requirement for technical equivalence with other members of the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML).
