ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY(EMC)
Important information regarding Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC's and
mobile (cellular) telephones, medical devices in use may be
susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other devices.
Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation
of the medical device and create a potentially unsafe situation.
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic
Compatibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe product situations, the
EN60601-1-2 standard has been implemented. This standard defines
the levels of immunity to electromagnetic interferences as well as
maximum levels of electromagnetic emissions for medical devices.
MDSTH1002 conforms to this EN60601-1-2:2007 standard for both
immunity and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
• The medical devices should not be used adjacent to or stacked
with other equipment. In case adjacent or stacked use is
necessary, the medical device should be observed to verify
normal normal operation in the configuration in which it
will be used.
• Refer to further guidance below regarding the EMC environment
in which the device should be used.
