RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS
The Guardian radio is intended for use in the Industrial Monitoring and Control
RF Exposure
and SCADA markets. The Guardian unit must be professionally installed and must ensure a
minimum separation distance listed in the table below between the radiating structure and any
person. An antenna mounted on a pole or tower is the typical installation and in rare instances,
a 1/2-wave whip antenna is used.

Note: It is the responsibility of the user to guarantee compliance with the FCC MPE
regulations when operating this device in a way other than described above.
The Guardian radio uses a low power radio frequency transmitter. The concentrated energy
from an antenna may pose a health hazard. People should not be in front of the antenna when
the transmitter is operating.
The installer of this equipment must ensure the antenna is located or pointed such that it does
not emit an RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population. Recommended
safety guidelines for the human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy are
contained in the Canadian Safety Code 6 (available from Health Canada) and the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Bulletin 65.
