Compatibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC’s and mobile
(cellular) telephones, medical devices in use may be susceptible to
electromagnetic interference from other devices. Electromagnetic interference
may result in incorrect operation of the medical device and create a potentially
unsafe situation. Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic Compat-
ibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe product situations, the EN60601-1-2
standard has been implemented. This standard denes the levels of immunity
to electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels of electromagnetic
emissions for medical devices. Medical devices manufactured by HealthSmart
International conform to this EN60601-1-2:2007 standard for both immunity
and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed: The use of accessories
and cables other than those specied by manufacturer, with the exception of
cables sold by manufacturer as replacement parts for internal components,
may result in increased emission or decreased immunity of the device.
• The medical devices should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment. In case adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the medical device
should be observed to verify normal operation in the conguration in which
it will be used.
• Refer to further guidance below regarding the EMC environment in which
the device should be used.
