Electromagnetic Comparability - EMC
Medical electrical equipment can either generate or receive electromagnetic
interference. The HomeSafe/GoSafe devices have been evaluated for
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) with the appropriate accessories according to
IEC 6060-1 collateral standard IEC 60601-1-2:2007, the international standard for
EMC for medical electrical equipment.
The HomeSafe/GoSafe devices comply with relevant laws and standards on electro-
magnetic compatibility (EMC) for this type of product when used as intended. Such
laws and standards define both the permissible electromagnetic emission levels from
this product and its required immunity to electromagnetic interference from external
sources.
The HomeSafe/GoSafe devices must emit electromagnetic energy in order to perform its intended
function. Nearby electronic equipment may be affected. Medical Electrical Equipment needs special
precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC
information provided in the accompanying documents.
Other electronic products exceeding the limits defined in such EMC standards could,
under unusual circumstances, affect the operation of the product.
1. Medical Electrical Equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC
and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC
information provided in the Accompanying Documents.
2. Other equipment such as Portable and Mobile RF Communications
Equipment may interfere with the medical device even of the other
equipment complies with CISPR emission requirements .
3. The use of accessories and cables other than those specified, with the
exception of those sold by the manufacturer may result in increased
emissions or decreased immunity of the equipment or system.
4. The equipment or system should not be used adjacent to or stacked
with other equipment and that if adjacent or stacked use is necessary,
the equipment or system should be observed to verify normal
operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
