Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Image 3 B Medical Bed
The Image 3 B Medical Bed is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Image 3 B Medical Bed can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the Image 3 B Medical Bed as recommended below, according
to the maximum output power of the communications equipment
Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter

Rated maximum
output of
transmitter
W
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above the recommended separation distance d
in metres (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is
the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
