Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – third party components
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified by LINAK could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or
decreased electromagnetic immunity of the actuator system and result in improper operation.
Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – interference with other equipment in general
Use of the actuator system adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided as this could result in improper operation. If such
use is necessary, the actuator system and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating properly.
If the user notes unusual behavior of the actuator system, in particular if such behaviour is intermittent and associated with the standing
right next to mobile phones, microwaves and radio broadcast masts, this could be an indication of electromagnetic interference.
If such behaviour occurs, try to move the actuator system further away from the interfering equipment.
Warning
Electromagnetic compatibility – interference with other equipment, RF communications
Portable RF communication equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used at a distance
no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the actuator system. This also applies to cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, a
performance degradation of this equipment could result.
Warning
If the actuator or lifting column is used for pull in an application where personal injury can occur, the following is valid:
The medical device manufacturer is responsible for the incorporation of a suitable safety arrangement, which will prevent personal injury
from occurring in case of actuator failure.
Warning
Note that during construction of applications, in which the actuator is to be fitted, there must be no possibility of personal injury, for
example the squeezing of fingers or arms.
Warning
The plastic parts in the system cannot tolerate cutting oil.
Warning
Assure free space for movement of the application in both directions to avoid a blockade.
Warning
The application and actuators are only to be operated by instructed personnel.
Warning
In applications with spline function, the blockage by an obstacle when the application is moving inwards, the removal of the obstacle will
cause the load to drop until the spindle hits the nut.
Warning
Do not turn the outer tube.
Warning
Do not use chemicals.
Warning
Inspect the actuator system regularly for damage and wear.
Warning
Do not expose LINAK actuator system components to high intensity ultraviolet radiation disinfection lamps. This may damage the enclosure,
supporting parts and cables.

LINAK
®
actuator systems bear the CE marking as an attestation of compliance with the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. The systems are
designed to meet all requirements of applicable standards and have been tested to meet IEC 60601-1-2 requirements.
Emission:
LINAK Actuator Systems are CISPR 11, Group 1, Class B products, comply with IEC 61000-3-2, Class A and IEC 61000-3-3 unless stated
otherwise in the relevant section of this document.
Immunity:
Test levels are according to Professional Healthcare Facility and Home Healthcare Facility Environment.
Electromagnetic phenomena are evaluated on a system level, with the actuator connected to a LINAK control box and accessories.
LINAK always recommends to perform verification tests on the final medical device.
