Electromagnetic Compatibility (Emc); Non-Ionising Radiation; Reasonably Foreseeable Incorrect Use; Warning Against Incorrect Use - multivac C200 Instruction Manual

Any other use is considered improper and can endanger persons, the
product and the machine.
1.3.1

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

The machine has been designed for use in residential, business and
industrial areas (without a separate power substation, it can be con-
nected directly to the public mains). Operation can be impaired when
used in an industrial environment.
1.3.2

Non-ionising radiation

The machine produces unintended non-ionising radiation. This is only
emitted by electrical operating equipment as a function of its inherent
technical nature. e.g. from electric motors, high voltage wires, mag-
netic coils. There are moreover no strong permanent magnets built
into the machine. Any effect on active implants can therefore be ex-
cluded with a high degree of probability as long as a safety distance
of 30 cm is maintained between the implant and the field source. Ac-
tive implants can be: heart pacemakers, defibrillators etc.
1.4

Reasonably foreseeable incorrect use

The following work methods are not in accordance with regulations
and therefore are prohibited:
• Operation in an atmosphere capable of explosion.
• Packing of highly flammable, combustible or explosion-prone
products.
• Packing of dust-forming or powder-forming material.
• Gas flushing of film pouches with explosive gas mixtures (e.g.
oxygen proportion over 21 %).
• Use of the chamber lid and the viewing window in the chamber lid
as a storage, working or cutting surface.
• Cleaning of the chamber lid and the viewing window in the cham-
ber lid with cleaning agents which have an abrasive effect (e.g.
abrasive household liquid cleaner, scouring pads, steel wool etc).
• Aseptic packing of products.
Info
Misuse will exclude any liability on behalf of the manufacturer. In
such a case, the operating company alone bears the risk.
1.5

Warning against incorrect use

• Incorrect operation
For example: sealing times that are too short or too long and there-
fore result in improperly sealed packs which in turn damage the
product.
• Neglecting the following work tasks:
– Inspections.
