All types of electronic equipment may characteristically cause electromagnetic interference with other equipment, ei-
ther through air or connecting cables. The term EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) indicates capability of the equip-
ment, which curbs electromagnetic influence from other equipment and at the same time does not affect other equip-
ment with similar electromagnetic radiation from itself.
This product is designed to fully comply with the EN60601–1–2 (IEC601–1–2), in Medical electrical equipment EMC
regulations.
