3. ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
This device requires particular precautions regarding Electromagnetic Compatibility. It must therefore be
installed and commissioned in compliance with the information on Electromagnetic Compatibility contained
in this manual.
Portable and mobile radio communication equipment can affect operation of the device.
Using accessories, transducers or cables different than those specified in par. 13.3 can increase the
emissions or decrease the immunity of the appliance.
Warnings
This device is only intended to be used by professional healthcare personnel. This device could
generate radio interference or disturb operation of the equipment in the vicinity. Therefore it could
be necessary to take measures to mitigate these effects, such as re-directing or repositioning the
device or shielding the room.
The use of accessories and cables other than those recommended by Cardioline may cause an
increase in emissions or a lowering in the protection of the system.
The device must not be used near or superimposed to other equipment. If necessary, check that the
device works according to its standard operation.
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.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the
manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased
electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the ME EQUIPMENT,
including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this
equipment could result. Where ME EQUIPMENT stands for the respective models, ECG100+,
ECG200+, ECG100S and ECG200S accordingly.
Notes
The EMISSIONS characteristics of this equipment make it suitable for use in industrial areas and hospitals
(CISPR 11 class A). If it is used in a residential environment (for which CISPR 11 class B is normally required)
this equipment might not offer adequate protection to radio-frequency communication services. The user
might need to take mitigation measures, such as relocating or re-orienting the equipment.
Electromagnetic compatibility during the use of the device is required with the surrounding devices.
An electronic device can generate or receive electromagnetic interference. The electromagnetic
compatibility test (EMC) has been carried out on the electrocardiograph in compliance with the international
EMC directive for medical equipment (IEC 60601-1-2). This IEC standard has been adopted as a European
standard (EN 60601-1-2).
