WARNING
11-40
Changes or modification to this equipment not expressly
approved by the manufacturer could cause EMC issues
with this or other equipment. Contact the manufacturer
for assistance. This device is designed and tested to
comply with applicable regulations regarding EMC as
follows.
Use of portable phones or other radio frequency (RF)
emitting equipment (that exceed electromagnetic
interference levels specified in IEC 60601-1-2) near the
system may cause unexpected or adverse operation,
such as inaccurate measure of patient parameters
including agent, oxygen or pressure monitoring. Such
items should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 in) to any
part of the anesthesia system. Degradation of the
performance of the system could result. Monitor
operation when RF emitters are in the vicinity.
Use of other electrical equipment adjacent to or stacked
with this system may cause interference. Verify normal
operation of equipment in the system before use on
patients.
The essential performance of the system consists of:
Providing oxygen flow under all conditions except failure of the
oxygen supply (pipeline or cylinder) to the system or the
generation of an alarm.
Delivery of a non-hypoxic gas mixture to the patient or the
generation of an alarm.
Non-delivery of excessive concentrations of anesthetic agent or
the generation of an alarm.
Airway pressure monitoring and associated alarms.
Cables used to obtain system electromagnetic emission and
immunity results are described below.
Use of any cables other than those specified by the
manufacturer may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the anesthesia system.
