Portable Bedside Capnograph 9
Electrical
WARNING: To protect against electric shock hazard, the monitor’s
cover is to be removed only by qualified service
personnel. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
WARNING: To ensure patient electrical isolation, connect only to
other equipment with circuits that are electrically
isolated.
WARNING: Use only the medical grade AC adapter provided by the
manufacturer. If in doubt about the integrity of the mains
supply connection, operate the monitor from its internal
battery pack.
WARNING: Do not connect to a printer or to a PC unless using the
Communication Adapter provided by the manufacturer
as an optional accessory. The printer and PC (when
connected to the patient through the Communication
Adapter) must be distanced from the patient
environment by at least 1.5 m.
Electro-magnetic Interference
This device has been tested and found to comply with the
requirements for medical devices according to the standard EN60601-
1-2/2001. These standards are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a typical medical
installation.
However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting
equipment and other sources of electrical noise in the healthcare
environments (for example, cellular phones, mobile two-way radios,
or electrical appliances), it is possible that high levels of such
interference, due to close proximity or strength of a source, may result
in disruption of performance of this device.
WARNING: Operating high frequency electrosurgical equipment in
the vicinity of the monitor can produce interference in
the monitor and give incorrect measurements.
WARNING: Do not use the monitor with nuclear spin tomography
(MRT, NMR, NMT) as the function of the machine may
be disturbed.
