the connected equipment must comply with the requirements for medical electrical systems as
specied in the IE
C 60601-1 standard.
Voltages
Dangerous electrical voltages are present within the system. Covers or cables should only be removed
by qualied and authorized service personnel.
Do not touch electrical connectors on the paent table or on the monitor ceiling suspension while
simultaneously touching the paent. Connector contact pins may carry low voltages that are safe to
touch, but that may be harmful to the paent.
Electrical Grounding (Earth)
You can only connect medical equipment to the system if that equipment is galvanically isolated from
the system. For medical equipment interfacing using Ethernet, video, or USB, galvanic isolaon is
ensured by using a wall connecon box. For more informaon, contact technical support.
Protecon Against Paent Leakage Current
An equipotenal ground connecon point is provided at the base of the paent table. If an operang
table is installed, the ground connecon point is located on the surgery wall connecon box. For more
informaon, contact technical support.
Cables
Electrical current may sll be present in cables that are no longer connected to the system, but that are
sll connected to the wall connecon box. Store these cables on the cable holder outside the paent
environment. If the cable holder is located inside the paent environment, ensure that the connectors
are covered with a rubber cap. If a cap is not available, take precauons to prevent cable connectors
from coming into contact with liquids.
Do not use mulple socket outlets or extension cables for installing or connecng any part of the
system. Such cables can compromise the electrical safety of the system, especially for equipment in the
examinaon room near the paent.
Cleaning
Switch the system o before cleaning or disinfecng it. Do not use cleaning agents or damp cloths on
connector contact pins. For more informaon, see Cleaning and Disinfecng (page 251).
2.3 Mechanical Safety
This secon provides informaon about how to avoid collisions when using the system.
Stand and Table
WARNING
During manual and mot
orized movements of the stand or the table, the operator is responsible for
the safety of paent, sta, and equipment. Avoid collisions to prevent serious injury to paent and
sta, or damage to the equipment.
Collisions may occur in the following situaons:
• With the stand in any posion, the tabletop may hit the stand during the longitudinal, lateral, and
height movements of the tabletop. Collisions may also occur during lt movements, if applicable.
• With the stand at the head end of the tabletop, the stand may hit the tabletop during angulaon or
rotaon movements.
