ThinPrep 2000 Standards
The ThinPrep 2000 System has been tested and certified by a U.S. nationally recognized testing
Laboratory (NRTL) to comply with current Safety, Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI) and Electro-
Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards. Refer to the processor product label, located on the rear of
the instrument, to see the safety certification markings.
This equipment meets the emission and immunity requirements of IEC 61326-2-6. This equipment
has been designed and tested to CISPR 11 Class A. In a domestic environment it may cause radio
interference, in which case, you may need to take measures to mitigate the interference. The
electromagnetic environment should be evaluated prior to operation.
Do not use this device in close proximity to sources of strong electromagnetic radiation (e.g.,
unshielded intentional radio frequency sources), as these may interfere with the proper operation.
Caution:
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protections
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy; and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
