D
O NOT LOOK INTO THE OUTPUT PORT OF THE POWERED BLOCK UP-
CONVERTER. Treat the powered SSPB with extreme care. Keep in mind that levels of
microwave radiation that do not induce immediate physical discomfort in most individuals can
be sufficiently high to induce longer term effects. Your eyes are particularly vulnerable parts of
your body.
The permissible levels of exposure are quite low in comparison to the power levels of the
equipment built by Advantech (e.g. less than 10 mW versus 4 to 700 W delivered by different
units). The permissible levels are currently being studied by a number of organizations. In the
2
past the U.S. Safety Code established a dosage rate of 10 mW/cm
. Currently there is
2
consideration being given to reducing the permissible level to 1 mW/cm
in the United States, as
has been the case for several European countries.
