Electromagnetic Compatibility (Emc); General Hints - KERN MBA Operating Manual

6 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

6.1 General hints

The MBA-M is suitable for professional healthcare facility environments (hospital,
clinics...).
The installation and use of this electrical medical device requires
special precautionary measures as outlined in the EMC information
below.
Don't near active HF surgical equipment and the RF shielded room of
an ME system for magnetic resonance imaging, where the intensity of
EM disturbances is high.
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment
should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If
such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment
should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified
or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in
increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic
immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
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 equipment MBA-M, including
cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the
performance of this equipment could result.
Note：The emissions characteristics of this equipment make it suitable for use in
industrial areas and hospitals (CISPR 11 class A). If it is used in a residential
environment (for which CISPR 11 class B is normally required) this equipment might
not offer adequate protection to radio-frequency communication services. The user
might need to take mitigation measures, such as relocating or re-orienting the
equipment.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) describes a device's ability to perform reliably
within an electromagnetic environment without causing inadmissible electromagnetic
interference at the same time. Amongst other things, such disturbances may be
emitted by connecting cables or the air.
