B
Electromagnetic Compatibility
This appendix lists the tests and compliance levels that make the EarlyVue VS30 vital
signs monitor suitable for use in the specified electromagnetic environment according
to IEC 60601-1-2:2014.
Instructions for Use
Medical electrical equipment can either generate or receive electromagnetic
interference. This product has been evaluated for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
with the appropriate accessories according to IEC 60601-1-2:2014, the international
standard for EMC for medical electrical equipment. This IEC standard has been
adopted in the European Union as the European Norm, EN 60601-1-2:2015.
Radio frequency (RF) interference from nearby transmitting devices can degrade
performance of the product. Electromagnetic compatibility with surrounding devices
should be assessed prior to using the product.
Fixed, portable, and mobile radio frequency communications equipment can also
affect the performance of medical equipment. See your service provider for assistance
with the minimum recommended separation distance between RF communications
equipment and the product.
The cables, sensors/transducers, and other accessories for which compliance is
claimed are listed earlier in this guide.
WARNING
• Use of accessories, transducers, and cables other than those specified may result in increased
emissions and decreased immunity of the monitor.
• The monitor should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or
stacked use is necessary, the monitor should be observed to verify normal operation in the
configuration in which it is used.
• Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and
external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the monitor.
This includes cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, performance degradation of the
monitor could result.
