18. Electromagnetic Compatibility
This device complies with the requirements of Class A as defined by the IEC 60601-1-2 standard.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical devices contained in
IEC60601-1-2 and Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC. These limits are intended to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation. This instrument
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energies and, if not installed and used in accordance
with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the system does
cause harmful interference to other devices, which can be determined by turning the system off and
on, try to eliminate the interference by adopting one or more of the following measures:
• reorient and/or relocate the receiving device;
• increase the distance between the devices;
• connect the system to an outlet on a different circuit than that to which the other devices are
connected;
• contact the manufacturer or field service technician for help.
This device needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service
according to the EMC information provided within this document. Portable and mobile RF
communications equipment can affect the readings made by this device.
18.1 Manufacturers EMC Declaration according to ISO 60601-1-2
The following tables provide specific information regarding compliance of the drsplus.
drsplus is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the
user of the drsplus should ensure that it is used in such environment.
The device has radio disturbance characteristics that make it suitable for use in industrial and hospital
environments (CISPR 11 class A). If used in a residential environment (for which CISPR 11 class B is
normally required), this device may not offer adequate protection of radio-frequency
communications. It may therefore be necessary to take steps to mitigate the problem, such as
reorienting or moving the device.
