EMC precautions
Prior to the installation of Emspira 3, the elec-
tromagnetic environment needs to be evalu-
ated. It is the responsibility of the operator to
ensure compliance with the environment.
If the instrument is being installed in any other
environment than an INDUSTRIAL, it cannot be
guaranteed that the equipment does not inter-
fere with other electronic devices.
INDUSTRIAL environments are part of a sepa-
rate power network, in most cases supplied by
a high- or medium-voltage transformer, dedi-
cated for the supply of installations feeding
manufacturing or similar plants.
Warning!
If Emspira 3 is being installed in any
other environment than an INDUS-
TRIAL, it cannot be guaranteed
that the radiated electromagnetic
emissions are not interfering with
other electronic devices.

Health risks
Workplaces with digital microscopes and came-
ras facilitate and improve the viewing task, but
they also impose high demands on the eyes
and holding muscles of the user. Depending on
the duration of uninterrupted work, asthenopia
and musculoskeletal problems may occur.
For this reason, appropriate measures for reduc-
tion of the workload must be taken:
OOptimal arrangement of workplace, work
assignments and work flow (changing tasks
frequently).
OThorough training of the personnel, giving
consideration to ergonomic and organizati-
onal aspects.
The ergonomic optics concept and the design
of Emspira 3 aim to limit the strain on the user
to the lowest possible level.
