3.2 Device environment, safety and handling instructions
Comply with the safety instructions below to prevent fire, electrical shocks, injuries and damage to
the unit.
Protect the unit from exposure to strong infrared radiation, e.g. the direct impact of sunlight.
Protect the unit from strong magnetic fields like the field close to an MRI.
Protect the unit from exposure to strong electromagnetic radiation. Although operation close to
HF surgery equipment may be admissible for some device configurations and some HF surgery
modes. Use the contact data in section 6 to get in touch with us. We would be glad to assist with
your local integration.
Protect the unit from exposure to strong ionizing radiation, e.g. the radiation at a C-arm on X-ray
devices.
Furthermore, the unit shall be protected from strong physical impacts and ongoing vibrations.
The unit may only be operated under the following ambient conditions:
Operating Transport / storage
Temperature 0 to 35 °C -10 to 60 °C
Humidity
10to90 %
non-condensing
5to70 %
non-condensing
Height
0 to 3,048 m
0 to 10,000 ft
0 to 12,192 m
0 to 40,000 ft
Pressure 70 to 106 kPa 19 to 106 kPa
Upgrades with additional cards such as framegrabber cards reduce the maximum permissible
operating temperature specified in the table by 5 °C.
The unit might be damaged by condensed water due to fast changes in temperature. Acclimatize
the unit for three hours at the new operating location if a difference in temperature of 10 °C is
exceeded, e.g. between a transport during winter and operation in a climatized operating theater.
Prevent the unit from showing the same screen content over a longer period. Otherwise, the dis-
plays’ quality might suffer from temporary or permanent image-sticking effect.
Use the “Display Off” function key to turn the display off if you do not use the unit for a longer
period. This does not affect running programs or functions of the unit. An LED in the key panel
indicates that the display is deactivated. Alternatively, a screensaver could be used.
