Safety Information
T3300 Diagnostic Ultrasound System | 7 | B00601-010 4/10/17
WARNING
Follow the procedures carefully and ensure that the power/electrical/environmental
requirements are satisfied. Failure to observe the instructions or disregard the warnings may
result in damages to the system, personal injury, or even death of the operator or the patient.
Observe the following precautions carefully.
WARNINGS
• This system complies with Type BF general equipment and the EN60601-1 standard,
suitable for continuous operation when connected as a system to a medical grade AC/DC
power adapter or operated from the tablet battery.
• Use only medical grade peripherals in the patient environment.
• Do not block or otherwise obstruct access to the AC plug at the wall. Operators must be
able to quickly unplug the power cable at the wall in case of emergency.
• The system should only be used in a medical facility under the supervision of a trained
physician.
• Only an authorized service technician should perform maintenance.
• Be extremely cautious when placing or moving the system.
• Always position the system on a stable surface where it cannot fall on the patient.
• Do not lift the system by the power cable or the transducer. If either disconnects, the
system could fall on the patient.
• This system has been fully adjusted and tested prior to shipment from the factory.
Unauthorized modifications will void your warranty.
• If this system or the transducer connected displays any signs of malfunction, turn off the
system immediately, disconnect it from the wall outlet, then contact technical support
(See "Contact Information" on page 2)
• Do not use a power adapter other than the one supplied with the system. Connecting the
system to an unknown power adapter is very dangerous and may lead to fire or
explosion.
• Using cables, transducers, or accessories other than those specified for use with the
system may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the system.
• The power cable of the system should only be connected to a grounded power socket.
• Do not connect USB peripherals with an extended USB cable. Extended connection may
cause unexpected usage fault.
• Only devices that comply with the EN60601-1 standard, either electronically or
mechanically, can be connected to this system. Recheck the leakage current and other
safety performance indices of the entire system to avoid potential system damage
caused by leakage from a current superposition.
Using accessories, transducers, peripherals, or cables not supplied with the system or
recommended by BenQ Medical Technology can affect the system in the form of increased
emissions or decreased immunity to external EMI/EMC occurrences. Non-specified
peripherals, and cables in some cases, can also increase leakage current or compromise the
safety of the grounding scheme.
• This system does not incorporate any specialized protective measures in the event it is
configured with high-frequency operation devices. The operator should use with caution
in these types of applications.
• The system is in compliance with the Ingress Protection Marking ratings IP21.
