Electromagnetic Compatibility accompanying Documents according to
IEC 60601-1-2
The instrument satisfies the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility. Plea-
se note that under the influence of unfavorable field strengths, e.g. during the
operation of wireless telephones or radiological instruments, adverse effects on
function cannot be excluded.
The electromagnetic compatibility of this device has been verified by test according
to the IEC60601-1-2 requirements.
9.1
EMC (electromagnetic compatibility)
9.1.1 During installation and operation of the device, observe the following
instructions:
9.1.2 Do not use the device simultaneously with other electronic equipment to
avoid electromagnetic interference with the operation of the device.
9.1.3 Do not use or stack the device near, on, or under other electronic equipment
to avoid electromagnetic interference with the operation of the device.
9.1.4 Do not use the device in the same room as other electronic equipment, such
as life-support equipment that has major effects on the life of the patient
and results of treatment, or any other measurement or treatment equipment
that involves small electric current.
9.1.5 Do not use cables or accessories that are not specified for the device
because that may increase the emission of electromagnetic waves from the
device and decrease the immunity of the device to electromagnetic
disturbance.
Attention!
Medical electrical equipment is subject to special precautions
regarding elec¬tromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
Portable and mobile radio frequency communication devices
can affect medical electrical equipment. The ME device is for
operation in an electromagnetic en¬vironment and intended for
professional facilities such as industrial areas and hospitals.
The user of the device should ensure that it is operated within
such an en-vironment.
Warning!
The ME device may not be stacked, arranged or used directly
next to or with other devices. When operation is required to be
close to or stacked with other devices, the ME device and the ot-
her ME devices must be observed in order to ensure proper ope-
ration within this arrangement. This ME device is intended for
use by medical professionals only. This device may cause radio
interference or interfere with the operation of nearby devices. It
may become necessary to take appropriate corrective measu-
res, such as redirecting or rearranging the ME device or shield.
The rated ME device does not exhibit any basic performance
features in the sense of IEC 60601-1, which would present an
unacceptable risk to patients, operators or third parties should
the power supply fail or malfunction.
