Safety
The system complies with International Standard CISPR 11 for radiated and con-
ducted electromagnetic disturbances. Compliance with this standard allows the
system to be used in all establishments, including domestic establishments and
those directly connected to the public low-voltage power supply network that
supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
CAUTION
Medical equipment has special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be
installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in the
system’s accompanying documents.
“Electromagnetic Compatibility” on page 127 includes information on electro-
magnetic emissions and immunity as it applies to the system. Ensure that the
operating environment of your system meets the conditions specified in the refer-
enced information. Operating the system in an environment that does not meet
these conditions may degrade system performance.
The information and warnings contained in this and other sections should be
observed when installing and using the ultrasound system to ensure its EMC.
The ultrasound system will remain safe and will provide the following essential
performance if it is operated within the electromagnetic environment listed in
Table 6-6 on page 131:
• Imaging (See “Electromagnetic Compatibility” on page 127 for conducted
immunity limitations and rationale.)
• Doppler audio and spectral display
•Measurements
• Acoustic output
• ECG triggering
• VCR recording and playback
• Printing using the system printers
• Patient information
• Date/time information
