50 Instructions for use Perseus A500 SW 2.0n
Example of a permissible configuration:
P1= 400 mm * (4 kg + 5 kg) = 3600 mm*kg
(P1=15.7 in * (8.8 lbs + 11 lbs) = 310.9 in*lbs)
P2= 300 mm * (3 kg + 12 kg) = 4500 mm*kg
(P2= 11.8 in * (6.6 lbs + 26.5 lbs) = 390.6 in*lbs)
3600 mm*kg + 4500 mm*kg = 8100 mm*kg
(310.9 in*lbs + 390.6 in*lbs = 701.5 in*lbs)
8100 mm*kg < 8500 mm*kg
(701.5 in*lbs < 738 in*lbs)
If a combination of arms on one device side
exceeds the value of 8500 mm*kg (738 in*lbs),
tipping stability as per IEC 60601-1 is no longer
given. Check the tilting stability.
