Safety and Regulatory Information

EMC Standards for the Detector

IEC 60601–1–2:2007 includes EMC requirements and tests, Medical Electrical Equipment
including CISPR 11:2009 + A 1:2010, Group 1, Class A.
Precautions
Electromagnetic Compatibility Precautions
Medical electrical equipment requires special precautions regarding Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC). Medical equipment must be installed and put into service according
to the EMC information provided in this document.
Communications Equipment
Portable and mobile radio frequency (RF) communications equipment can affect medical
electrical equipment EMC performance.
The wireless version of the detector operates with the 802.11n protocol in the 5 GHz
frequency band. The radio output power is 50 mW (nominal).
Replacement of Cables, Accessories, or Transducers
The use of cables, accessories, or transducers, other than those specified in this document
with the exception of transducers or cables sold by the manufacturer of the equipment
as replacement parts for internal components, may result in increased emissions or
decreased immunity of the medical equipment.
Other Equipment
The detector should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent
or stacked use is necessary, the detector should be observed to verify normal operation
in the configuration in which it will be used.
Shielded Locations
The typical location of the detector will be in a shielded room only because the detector
functions with sources of X-ray energy. The detector is fully compliant with the
requirements of IEC 60601–1–2:2007 without being located in a shielded room.
