Appendix II: EMC Requirements
1. Requirements
All Medical Electrical Equipment require special precautions to be
taken regarding EMC and the 500 needs to be used according to the
EMC information provided in this appendix.
Portable and mobile RF equipment can affect medical electrical
equipment.
The Medical Equipment System described in this appendix
comprises a 500 instrument powered by AA batteries alone, or a 500
instrument powered by AA batteries, attached to a thermal printer
(RM40800) via a printer cable (RM50871).
The printer and printer charger meet international standards for EMC
and are determined to be ‘Not Medical Electrical Equipment’ and
therefore exempt from inclusion in this appendix.
Use of a printer or printer cable other than those specified by the
manufacturer may result in increased emissions or decreased
immunity of the system.
The 500 should not be used adjacent to other equipment and that if
adjacent use is necessary, the 500 should be observed to verify
normal operation.
