Appendix A Transducer Maximum
Surface Temperature
According to the requirements of the section 42.3 in the standard EN60601-2-37: 2001+A1:
2005+A2: 2005, the transducer surface temperature has been tested in two kinds of conditions: the
transducer suspended in still air or transducer contacting human-tissue mimicking material. The
calculation of the expanded uncertainty is based on the ISO Guide to the Expression of uncertainty
in measurement. Three transducer samples have been tested and the confidence coefficient is at
95%, the value of is 4.30.
