9. Safety informations
9.1. Working environment
When deploying telemetry modules one has to observe and comply to local legislation
and regulations. Using the telemetry module in places where it can cause radio noise or
other disturbances is strictly prohibited.
9.2. Electronic equipment
Thou most of modern electrical equipment is well RF (Radio Frequency) shielded there
is no certainty that radio waves emitted by the telemetry module's antenna may have
negative influence on its function.
9.2.1. Heart pacemakers
It is recommended that the distance between the antenna of telemetry module and the
Heart Pacemaker is greater than 20 cm.
This distance is recommended by manufacturers of Pacemakers and in full harmony
with results of studies conducted independently by Wireless Technology Research.
9.2.2. Hearing aids
In rare cases the signal emitted by the telemetry module's antenna may disturb
hearing aids functions. Should that occur, one has to study detailed operating
instructions and recommendations for that particular product.
9.2.3. Other medical equipment
Any radio device including the telemetry module may disturb the work of electronic
medical equipment.
When there is a need of installing telemetry module in vicinity of medical equipment
one has to contact the manufacturer of this equipment in order to make sure that the
equipment is adequately protected against interference of radio frequency waves (RF).
9.2.4. RF Marked equipment
The restriction against installing telemetry modules in areas marked as radio frequency
(RF) prohibition zones must be unconditionally observed.
9.3. Explosive environment
Installation of telemetry modules in the environment where explosion hazard is present
is not permitted. Usually, but not always, these places are marked with warning signs.
Where there is no marking do not install telemetry modules at liquid or gas fuels
stores, inflammable materials stores, nor places contaminated with metal or wheat
dust.
