44 Handheld Pulse Oximeter (Reorder No. 36403)
APPENDIX B (Continued)
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment and the Handheld Pulse Oximeter
The Handheld Pulse Oximeter is intended for use in an electromagnetic
environment in which radiated RF disturbance are controlled. The
customer or the user of the Handheld Pulse Oximeter can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between
portable and mobile RF communication equipment (transmitters) and
the Handheld Pulse Oximeter as recommended below, according to the
maximum output power of the communications equipment.
Rated
maximum
output power
of transmitter
(W)
Separation distance according to frequency of
transmitter (m)
0.01 0.1167 0.1167 0.2334
0.1 0.3689 0.3689 0.7378
1 1.1667 1.1667 2.3334
10 3.6893 3.6893 7.3786
100 11.6667 11.6667 23.3334
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the
recommended separation distance in meters (m) can be estimated using
the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the
maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to
the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80MHz and 800MHz, the separation distance for the higher
frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations.
Electromagnetic interference is affected by absorption and reection
from structures, objects and people.
