9. Change the leakage current switch to the RVS position.
10. Read the leakage current indicated on the DMM.
NOTE
If either reading is greater than 10 μA (0.01 volts on the DMM),
the device fails this test. Contact GE Technical Support.
11. Set the power switch of the device to OFF.
NOTE
The AAMI and EN single fault condition (ground open) is 50 μA,
whereas the normal condition (ground closed) is less.
12. Repeat the steps in this procedure using the appropriate SpO2 Test Body.
Connect the SpO2 Test Body to the blue SpO2 connector of the device under
test.
Patient (sink) leakage current test
This test pertains to the Solar 8000M/i, part of the monitoring system.
This procedure only applies to Class I (grounded/earthed) equipment,
and measures the leakage current from a mains voltage source into the
ECG/RESP connector then the SpO2 connector.
1. Configure the leakage tester like the circuit shown below with GND
switch CLOSED and polarity switch NORM.
WARNING
Shock hazard. The following step causes high voltage at
the test body. Do not touch the test body.
2. Set power switch on the device to ON.
3. Read leakage current indicated on DMM.
4. Change the leakage tester polarity switch to the RVS position.
5. Read the leakage current indicated on the DMM.
