ATTENTION
Consult accompanying documents.
The generator output is floating (isolated) with respect to ground.
DANGER
Explosion risk if used with flammable anesthetics.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.
Class I Equipment (IEC 601-1)
Accessible conductive parts cannot become live in the event of a basic
insulation failure because of the way in which they are connected to the
protective earth conductor.
Type CF Equipment (IEC 601-1)/Defibrillator Proof
The Force FX-C generator provides a high degree of protection against
electric shock, particularly regarding allowable leakage currents. It is type
CF isolated (floating) output and may be used for procedures involving
the heart.
The Force FX-C generator patient return electrode terminal is protected
from defibrillator discharge according to ANSI/ AAMI HFl8 and IEC 601-
2-2.
Drip Proof (IEC 601-2-2)
The generator enclosure is constnlcted so that liquid spillage in normal
use does not wet electrical insulation or other components which, when
wet, are likely to affect adversely the safety of the generator.
