1-9-2 Compliance Vivid 7 conforms to all applicable conducted and radiated emission limits and to immunity from electrostatic discharge, radiated and conducted RF fields, magnetic fields and power line transient requirements. Applicable standards are: 47CFR Part 18, IEC60601–1–2:2001.
2-1-1 Purpose of Chapter 2 This chapter provides the information required to plan and prepare for the installation of a Vivid 7. Included are descriptions of the facility and electrical needs to be met by the purchaser of the unit.
2-2-1-3 Cooling The cooling requirement for the Vivid 7 is 3500 BTU/hr. This figure does not include cooling needed for lights, people, or other equipment in the room. Each person in the room places an additional 300 BTU/ hr. demand on the cooling system.
General Requirements NOTE: GE Medical Systems requires a dedicated power and ground for the proper operation of its Ultrasound equipment. This dedicated power shall originate at the last distribution panel before the system. Sites with a mains power system with defined Neutral and Live: The dedicated line shall consist of one phase, a neutral (not shared with any other circuit), and a full size ground wire from the distribution panel to the Ultrasound outlet.
