ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY GUIDANCE
• This unit is not designed to be used where there is explosion
hazard, such as anesthesia departments or in the presence
of an anesthetic ammable when mixed with air, oxygen or
nitrous oxide.
• Using cables, electrodes and other accessories from other
manufacturers and/or dierent from those specied in this
manual as well as the replacement of internal components
SONOPULSE III may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the equipment.
• SONOPULSE III equipment is intended for use only by
health care professionals. The SONOPULSE III may cause
radio interference or disrupt equipment operations nearby.
It may be necessary to adopt mitigation procedures, such as
reorienting or relocating the equipment or shielding of the
site.
• Portable and Mobile Radio Frequency (RF) communications
equipment can aect Medical Electrical Devices.
As for the limits of electromagnetic interference, SONOPULSE
III is an electromagnetic device of Group 1 Class A. The
simultaneous connection from the patient to SONOPULSE
III and to high frequency surgical equipment may result
in burns in the ultrasonic transducer application area and
possible damage to the device. Short distance operation (1
meter, for example) of short wave or microwave therapy
equipment may produce instability in the output of the device.
To prevent electromagnetic interference, we suggest that one
group of power supply line is used for SONOPULSE III and
another separate group is used for short wave or microwave
equipment. We also suggest that the patient, SONOPULSE
III e and connection cables are installed at least 3 meters
away from short wave and microwave therapy equipment.
Medical Electrical Devices requires special attention regarding
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and must be installed
and put into service according to the EMC information provided
in the following tables.
