WARNING!
Risk of Faulty Treatment
Electromagnetic Interference may cause electrical equipment to malfunction.

2.2.1
Electromagnetic Compatibility and Electrostatic Discharge (EMC and
ESD)
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by
Breas could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic
immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
Electromagnetic disturbance may impair the safety and performance of the Vivo 2. The
electromagnetic field levels at the Vivo 2 should not exceed 20 V/m.
Unsteady indicated values for delivered volumes or pressures and the occurrence of
alarm conditions without apparent cause may be an indication of loss of performance
due to electromagnetic disturbances.
Measures for keeping electromagnetic field levels low should include but are not be
limited to:
•
•
•
Doc. 007229 D-3
The aspects of electromagnetic compatibility must be considered.
•
The Vivo 2 should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment; if adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the Vivo 2 should
be observed to verify normal operation in that configuration.
•
Mobile or transportable radio transmitters may interfere with the
Vivo 2.
•
Further guidance for safe installation of the ventilator can be found in
the chapter about emission and immunity declaration.
If a portable AC power supply is used, make sure that the voltage variations are
within the operating limits of the Vivo 2.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna
cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to
any part of the Vivo 2, including specified cables. Otherwise, degradation of the
performance of this equipment could result.
Normal precautions with regard to relative humidity and conductive characteristics
of clothing in order to minimize the build-up of electrostatic charges.
Avoiding the use of radio emitting devices (e.g. cellular or cordless telephones,
microwave ovens and high-frequency surgery apparatus) closer than 1 meter to the
Vivo 2.
Avoiding the use of known sources of Electromagnetic Interference, (e.g. RFID, dia-
thermy equipment), in the presence of the Vivo 2.
Please note some of these RF emitters may not be visible and the Vivo 2 can poten-
tially be exposed to fields from these RF emitters without the user's awareness. If
