  • Page 34: Electromagnetic Compatibility

    RF communications equipment and the SVED® The SVED® is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the SVED® can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the SVED® as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

  • Page 35: Immunity Test

    To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the SVED® is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the SVED® should be observed to verify normal operation.
