Electromagnetic Compatibility Precautions
General information on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) according to the
international EMC standard IEC 60601-1-2: 2001
Pins of connectors identified with the ESD warning symbol shall not be touched and not be
connected unless ESD precautionary procedures are used. Such precautionary proce-
dures may include antistatic clothing and shoes, the touch of a ground stud before and dur-
ing connecting the pins or the use of electrically isolating and antistatic gloves. All staff
involved in the above shall receive instruction in these procedures.
NOTE:
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment.
NOTE:
Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in the technical
documentation available from Dräger Service upon request.
WARNING:
This product has been validated with the accessories and options listed in this manual and
found to comply with all relevant safety and performance requirements applicable to the device.
It is therefore the responsibility of that person or organization who makes an unauthorized
modification, or incorporates an unapproved attachment to the device, to ensure that the
system still complies with those requirements. [IHA036]
WARNING:
Do not use equipment adjacent to other devices unless verification of normal operation in the
configuration in which it is to be used can be achieved. Infant injury, personal injury, or
equipment damage could occur.
CAUTION:
Casters do not control all the Electro Static Discharge (ESD) characteristics of the device on
which they are mounted. They do, however, help prevent the build up of charge on the casters
from friction during motion.
ESD is a product of the environment and only the user/owner can control the ESD in that
environment by maintaining a conductive floor, equipping employees with ESD clothing and
control devices, etc.
