TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
WS-820 complies with the EMC, electromagnetic compatibility, standard, IEC60601-1-2. Refer to the tables below for specific information regarding compliance to the standard. WS-820, as a medical electrical equipment, needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service
according to the EMC information provided below. Portable and mobile RF communications equipments can affect the device. The use of accessories other than those specified in this manual may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the device. WS-820 should not be used adjacent to or
stacked with other equipment.
Table 201 - Guidance and manufacturer's declaration - electromagnetic emissions -
WS-820 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user of WS-820 should assure that it is used in

WS-820 uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very
low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment.

transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which WS-820 is used exceeds the

Table 206 - Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and WS-820 -
WS-820 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of
WS-820 can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and WS-820 as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
