Notes on electromagnetic compatibility
The ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM is suitable for home
healthcare environments and so on.
Warning: Don’t near active HF surgical equipment and
the RF shielded room of an ME system for magnetic re-
sonance imaging, where the intensity of EM disturbances
is high.
Warning: Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked
with other equipment should be avoided because it could
result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this
equipment and the other equipment should be observed
to verify that they are operating normally.
Warning: Use of accessories, transducers and cables
other than those specified or provided by the manufactu-
rer of this equipment could result in increased electroma-
gnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity
of this equipment and result in improper operation.
Warning: Portable RF communications equipment (inclu-
ding peripherals such as antenna cables and external an-
tennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches)
to any part of the equipment (BC 54), including cables
specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of
the performance of this equipment could result.
If any: a list of all cables and maximum lengths of cables
(if applicable), transducers and other ACCESSORIES that
are replaceable by the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION
and that are likely to aect compliance of the ME EQUIP-
MENT or ME SYSTEM with the requirements of Clause 7
(EMISSIONS) and Clause 8 (IMMUNITY). ACCESSORIES
may be specified either generically (e.g. shielded cable,
load impedance) or specifically (e.g. by MANUFACTU-
RER and EQUIPMENT OR TYPE REFERENCE). If any:
the performance of the ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM
that was determined to be ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE
and a description of what the OPERATOR can expect if
the ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE is lost or degraded due
to EM DISTURBANCES (the defined term “ESSENTIAL
PERFORMANCE” need not be used).
