Recommended separation distance between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the AVEA Ventilator
The AVEA Ventilator is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer
or the user of the AVEA Ventilator can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the AVEA Ventilator as recommended below, according to the maximum output
power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance in metres (m) can be determined using the
equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where
is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in Watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance of the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 The ISM (industrial, scientific, and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to 6,795 MHz;13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz;
26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz to 40,70 MHz.
NOTE 3 An additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in the ISM frequency bands between 150
kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2,5 GHz to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable communications equipment could cause
interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas.
NOTE 4 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and
people.
