Safety – Iridium Transceiver
• The 9522B is a low power transceiver. When it is
ON, it receives radio frequency (RF) signals.
• The Iridium 9522B transceiver which is designed
to be used with an external antenna. This
antenna transmits RF energy. The Iridium
antenna (tted via an extension coaxial cable
must be located more than > 0.3 meters (1 foot)
from human body (person) when in operation.
• International agencies have set standards and
recommendations for the protection of public
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
» International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
» Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker
(VDE) DIN-0848
» United States Federal Commission, Radio
Frequency Exposure Guidelines (1996)
» National Radiological Protection Board of
the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
» American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
These standards are based on extensive scientic
review. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the updated ANSI standard.
WARNING: POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES:
1. Turn the phone OFF and DO NOT remove the UPS
battery pack when you are in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere.
2. Obey all signs and instructions.
3. Sparks from plugging in the UPS Battery Pack cables
could cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
4. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often but not always clearly marked. They include,
but are not limited to:
• fuelling areas such as gasoline stations
• below deck on boats;
• fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities;
• areas where fuel odours are present (for
example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a
car or home);
• areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders;
• any other area where you normally would be
advised to turn o the vehicle engine.
