Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

Electromagnetic compatibility describes a level of performance of a device within its
electromagnetic environment. This environment consists of the device itself and its surroundings
including other equipment, power sources and persons with which the device must interface.
Inadequate compatibility results when a susceptible device fails to perform as intended due
interference from its environment or when the device produces unacceptable levels of emission to
its environment. This interference is often referred to as radio–frequency or electromagnetic
interference (RFI/EMI) and can be radiated through space or conducted over interconnecting power
of signal cables. In addition to electromagnetic energy, EMC also includes possible effects from
electrical fields, magnetic fields, electrostatic discharge and disturbances in the electrical power
supply.

CE Compliance

The
and to immunity from electrostatic discharge, radiated and conducted RF fields, magnetic fields and
power line transient requirements.
Applicable standards are: 47CFR Part 18, IEC 601–1–2, and 806–13.
For CE Compliance, it is critical that all covers, screws, shielding, gaskets, mesh, clamps,
are in good condition, installed tightly without skew or stress. Proper installation following
all comments noted in this service manual is required in order to achieve full EMC
performance.

EMC Performance

All types of electronic equipment may characteristically cause electromagnetic interference with
other equipment, ei ther through air or connecting cables. The term EMC (Electromagnetic
Compatibility) indicates capability of the equip ment, which curbs electromagnetic influence from
other equipment and at the same time does not affect other equip ment with similar electromagnetic
radiation from itself.
This product is designed to fully comply with the EN60601-1-2 (IEC601-1-2), in Medical electrical
equipment EMC regulations.
Proper installation following this service manual is required in order to achieve the full EMC
performance of the product.
The product must be installed as stipulated in 1-4-4, Notice upon Installation of Product.
In case of issues related to EMC, please follow procedures stated in 1-4-6, Countermeasures
against EMC-related Issues.
