Electromagnetic compatibility
The System is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified
below. The user of the System should assure that it is used in such an
environment.
The System complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility
requirements of AS/NZ CISPR 11:2015 and EN IEC 60601-1-2:2014.
However, electronic and mobile communications equipment may
transmit electromagnetic energy through air and there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation or environment.
Interference may result in artifacts, distortion, or degradation of the
ultrasound image. If the System is found to cause or respond to
interference, try re-orienting the System or the affected device, or
increasing the separation distance between the devices. Contact
<hyperlink>EchoNous customer support or your EchoNous distributor
for further information.
EchoNous does not recommend the use of high-frequency
electromedical devices in proximity to its systems.EchoNous equipment
has not been validated for use with high-frequency electrosurgical
devices or procedures. Use of high-frequency electrosurgical devices in
proximity to its systems may lead to abnormal system behavior or
shutdown of the system. To avoid the risk of a burn hazard, do not use
Kosmos Torso with high-frequency surgical equipment. Such a hazard
may occur in the event of a defect in the high-frequency surgical neutral
electrode connection.
The System contains sensitive components and circuits. Failure to
observe proper static control procedures may result in damage to the
System. Any faults should be reported to <hyperlink>EchoNous or your
EchoNous distributor for repair.
