Electrical Safety Safety
Lumify Ultrasound System 25
Philips Healthcare 4535 618 58571_A/795 * MAY 2016
WARNING
Ultrasound equipment in normal operation, as with other medical electronic diagnostic
equipment, uses high-frequency electrical signals that can interfere with pacemaker
operation. Though the possibility of interference is slight, be alert to this potential hazard
and stop system operation immediately if you note interference with a pacemaker.
WARNING
When using additional peripheral equipment that is to be interconnected by functional
connection, the combination is considered to be a medical electrical system. It is your
responsibility to comply with IEC 60601-1 and test the system to those requirements. If you
have questions, contact your Philips representative.
WARNING
Patient-applied parts meet the standard IEC 60601-1. Applied voltages exceeding the
standard, although unlikely, may result in electrical shock to the patient or operator.
WARNING
Connection of optional devices not supplied by Philips Ultrasound could result in electrical
shock. When such optional devices are connected to your ultrasound system, ensure that
the total system earth leakage current does not exceed 500 µA.
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, do not use any transducer that has been immersed beyond
the specified cleaning or disinfection level.
