Page 15: Switching Off The Warming Blankets
5.4 Switching off the warming blankets The switching off of the warming blanket is achieved by disconnecting it from the voltage source. • Note: The heating phase of the warming blanket from 20 °C to 37 °C is approx. 5 minutes. When executing R130 and the power supply is inter- rupted, the temperature is re-set independently from the eventually preselected temperature to 41 °C. -

Insensitivity test IEC 60601 – Test level Compatibility level Notes on the electromagnetic environment Portable and mobile HF communication equipment should not be used closer to any part of the device system, including cables, than the recommended distance calcu- lated using the correct equation for the frequency of the transmitter. Recommended distance: Conducted HFIEC 3 V effective value 3 V effective value d= [3.5/3]√P = 1.17 √P 61000-4-6 150 kHz to 80 MHz Radiated HF IEC 3V/m 10 V/m d = [3.5/10]√P = 0.35√P 61000-4-3 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = [7.0/10]√P = 0.70√P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz Where P is the maximum rated output of the transmitter in (W) according to the manufacturer of the transmitter and d is the recommended distance in metres (m) . The field strengths of fixed HF transmitters measured in an electromagnetic location check should be lower than the compatibility level in each frequency range.
- Page 29 Notes and statement of manufacturer – Electromagnetic insensitivity a) The field strengths of transmitters such as base stations for mobile phones (mobile or cordless phones) and mobile non-public radio equipment, amateur radio transmitters, SW and VHF radio transmissions and television broadcasts cannot be precisely pre- dicted in theory. In order to evaluate the electromagnetic environment around fixed HF transmitters, an electromagnetic location check should be considered. If the field strength measured at the location where the device or system is used exceeds the aforesaid HF compatibility level, the device or system should be observed in order to verify normal operation. If abnormal operation is observed, further measures may be necessary, such as realigning the device or system or transferring it to a different location. b) Above the frequency range from 150 kHz to 80 MHz the field strengths should be lower than 3 V/m.
