Service and Repair Instructions, including Circuit Diagrams and Parts List
9. The fuses on the circuit board are to be serviced by an authorized technician. Please call Technical
Services.
100/120 VAC, 50/60 Hz use 10 AMP 250 Volt Fuse (Slo-Blo), (F1, F2)
220/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz use 8 AMP 250 Volt Fuse (Slo-Blo), (F1, F2)
10. The Surgical Smoke Evacuator requires special precautions regarding Electromagnetic Compatibility
(EMC) and needs to be installed according to EMC information found in this manual.
11. The Surgical Smoke Evacuator utilizes mobile Radio Frequency (RF) communications equipment that
can affect medical electrical equipment.
12. The Surgical Smoke Evacuator has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the Surgical Smoke Evacuator is operated in a
commercial environment. The Surgical Smoke Evacuator generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of the Surgical Smoke Evacuator
in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at their expense.
The Surgical Smoke Evacuator operates in the following radio frequency specifications:
RX modulation: Pulse-width coded, AM 100% modulation
TX Frequencies: Manchester encoded,
A = fc =/- 423.75kHz, B = fc +/- 484.29kHz
Low bit: transition A to B
High bit: transition B to A
13. To isolate the Surgical Smoke Evacuator from supply mains, unplug the Power Cord from the power
receptacle on the Surgical Smoke Evacuator or receptacle in the wall. Position the equipment to
allow for ease of unplugging Power Cord.
14. Potential Equalization Conductor: Terminal located on back panel for connection of potential
equalization. Conductor complies with requirements per IEC 60601-1.
15. The Surgical Smoke Evacuator and all Filters are not intended for contact with patients.
16. In Europe, the Smoke Evacuator is a Short Range Device, RF Class I, per Commission Decision
2006/177/EC with no restrictions. This product operates at 13.56 MHz with an H-field strength of
-4.61dBuA/m at 10m. Hereby, Buffalo Filter declares that the Surgical Smoke Evacuator radio
equipment is in compliance with Directive 2014/53/EU. The full text of the EU declaration of
conformity is available at the following internet address: http://www.buffalofilter.com/service-support/
