The SI PCF is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the
user of the SI PCF should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Mains power quality should be
that of a typical commercial or
hospital environment. If the
user of the SI PCF requires
continued operation during
power mains interruptions; it is
recommended that the SI PCF
be powered from an
uninterruptable power supply or
a battery.
Power frequency

If incorrect operation occurs, it
may be necessary to position
the SI PCF further from sources
of power frequency magnetic
fields or to install magnetic
shielding. The power frequency
magnetic field should be
measured in the intended
installation location to assure
that it is sufficiently low.
Note: UT is the A.C. mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
