to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
where P is the maximum output power rating
of the transmitter in watts (W) according to
the transmitter manufacturer and d is the rec-
ommended separation distance in metres (m).
Field strengths from xed RF transmitters, as
determined by an electromagnetic site survey,
should be less than the compliance level in
each frequency range. D Interference may
occur in the vicinity of equipment
marked with the following symbol:
Table: According to IEC 60601-1-2, Edition 4.0
NOTE: UT is the a.c. mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
NOTE: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
aected by absorption and reection from structures, objects and people.
a- Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV
broad-cast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic
environment due to xed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered.
If the measured eld strength in the location in which the PinkWave™ is used exceeds the
applicable RF compliance level above, the PinkWave™ should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such
as reorienting or relocating the PinkWave™.
b- Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strength should be less than 10 V/m.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the
recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be determined using the equation
applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating
of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range
applies.
NOTE 4: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
aected by absorption and reection from structures, objects and people.
Recommended Separation Distances Between Portable and Mobile RF communications
equipment and the “PinkWave™ Curing Light”
The PinkWave™ is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the PinkWave™
can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance
between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the
PinkWave™ Curing Light as recommended below, according to the maximum output power
of the communication equipment. In general, portable RF communications equipment may
degrade performance if used closer than 30 cm (12 inches).
