Generator G11 Operator’s Manual
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
The Generator G11 requires special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and must be installed and used in accordance with
the EMC information provided in this guide� The Generator G11 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environments specified below�
Caution: Ensure that the Generator G11 is used only in these environments�
Electromagnetic Emissions
Emissions Test Compliance Guidance
RF emissions
CISPR 11
Group 1 (per IEC 60601-2-2:2009) The Generator G11 uses RF energy only
for its internal function� Therefore, its RF
emissions are very low and are not likely to
cause any interference in nearby electronic
equipment�
RF emissions
CISPR 11
Class A The Generator G11 is suitable for use in all
establishments other than domestic and those
directly connected to the public low-voltage
power supply network that supplies buildings
used for domestic purposes�
HARMONIC emissions
IEC 61000-3-2
Not applicable
Voltage fluctuations/flicker emissions
IEC 61000-3-3
Not applicable
Electromagnetic Immunity Guidance
For electromagnetic immunity, essential performance is: activation tones are coupled with energy output, energy output ceases when activation
switches are opened, and no energy output without activation switch closure�

G11 requires continued operation
during power mains interruptions, it is
recommended that the Generator G11 be
powered from an uninterruptible power
supply or a battery�
