ing and knowledge to guarantee the safe use and
handling of the device.
Electrical safety requirements
The primelase® excellence device is designed and in-
tended for continuous operation, and permits working
at the universal network voltage of 100–240V, 50–60Hz.
primelase® excellence is protected from electric shocks
by protective earth. The unit has an earth connection
through the conductor of the power cable.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of electric shock, this device
must only be connected to an electrical network with
protective earth. The power supply lines must be free of
transient surges, voltage or current peaks, voltage drops
or voltage surges.
WARNING: Avoid connecting primelase® excellence to
the same electrical line as sensitive devices.
Important: The device has a second earth connection.
This must be connected correctly before the device
is used.
There are potentially dangerous high voltages inside
the device; panels and covers should not be removed,
unless by personnel who have been authorised by the
manufacturer to do so.
SAFETY AND
REGULATORY
General safety
provisions
Never leave primelase® excellence switched on, open
or unattended during maintenance.
The protection mechanism for the device is a thermal
magnetic circuit breaker. If the protection system is
automatically triggered, reset the switch to the original
position.
WARNING: In the event that the problem persists,
contact the manufacturer’s authorised technical
support (SAT).
Electromagnetic
safety requirements
primelase® excellence has been designed in com-
pliance with harmonised IEC standard 60601-1-2 on
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), which states that
electronic medical equipment must not emit electro-
magnetic disturbances that may affect radio services
or the essential functions of other medical equipment.
Electronic medical equipment must have adequate in-
vulnerability to offer basic safety and normal function-
ing in the presence of electromagnetic disturbances.
primelase® excellence® is a device that uses radiof-
requency energy (RF) for its internal functions only. For
this reason, the RF emissions it produces are very low
and are unlikely to cause interference with nearby elec-
tronic equipment.
