2.2.3 Power Requirements and System Grounding
The BIS VISTA Monitoring System requires a power source of 100-240 VAC, 50-60Hz.
Current consumption is 0.7 ampere maximum.
To protect operating personnel and patients, the monitor must be properly grounded.
Accordingly, the monitor is equipped with a hospital grade line cord. The power cord
grounds the system to the power line ground when plugged into an appropriate three-wire
receptacle.
WARNING:
USE ONLY THE POWER CORD SUPPLIED BY THE
MANUFACTURER. NEVER ADAPT THE PLUG FROM THE
MONITOR TO FIT A NON-STANDARD OUTLET.
U.S.A. REQUIREMENT: FOR PROPER GROUNDING, THE
POWER RECEPTACLE MUST BE A THREE-WIRE GROUNDED
OUTLET. A HOSPITAL GRADE OUTLET IS REQUIRED.
NEVER ADAPT THE THREE-PRONG PLUG FROM THE
MONITOR TO FIT A TWO-SLOT OUTLET. IF THE OUTLET
HAS ONLY TWO SLOTS, MAKE SURE THAT IT IS REPLACED
WITH A THREE-SLOT GROUNDED OUTLET BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THE MONITOR.
IF THE INTEGRITY OF THE EXTERNAL PROTECTIVE
EARTH GROUND IS IN DOUBT, THE BIS VISTA MONITOR
SHALL BE OPERATED FROM ITS INTERNAL BATTERY
POWER SOURCE ONLY.
2.2.4 Electromagnetic Compatibility Requirements
The BIS VISTA Monitoring System should be used only with the power cord and
accessories recommended and supplied by Aspect Medical Systems, Inc. The system must be
installed and put into use according to the specifications described in Section 8.2
“Electromagnetic Compatibility Specifications.”
Caution:
The BIS VISTA system complies with the electromagnetic
compatibility requirements of IEC 60601-1-2. Operation of this device
may affect or be affected by other equipment in the vicinity due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). If this occurs:
• Increase separation between devices
• Re-orient device cabling
• Plug devices into separate outlet circuit branches
Refer to Section 8.2 “Electromagnetic Compatibility Specifications.”
