AC Power Requirements
Plug your system only into an AC outlet that satisfies the following criteria:
• The AC outlet must be capable of handling up to 1,440 VA to compensate for
surges and fluctuations.
• The AC outlet must be able to handle intermittent currents of up to 15 A (for
100/120 Vac) or 10 A (for 200/240 Vac).
• The AC outlet must have a circuit that can accommodate this additional load.
An equipotential terminal is provided on the rear panel of the system. Use this
when redundant earth ground is necessary according to IEC 60601-1-1.
WARNING
No life-support devices should be connected to the same circuit as the ultra-
sound system.
The AC power to the system must be capable of delivering 1,000 VA sustained
and 1,450 VA intermittent, and meet all of the minimum requirements specified in
IEC 60601-1, second edition. This means, for example, that transients on the
power line should not be any greater than the following:
• AC drops down to 70% of nominal voltage for up to 25 AC cycles.
• AC drops down to 40% of nominal voltages for up to 5 AC cycles.
• Complete AC dropout for one complete AC cycle.
If your AC power does not meet these requirements, you should use a power line
conditioner, or an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
