Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration – Electromagnetic Immunity

The ClearChart 4P is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.  The 

customer or user of the ClearChart 4P should ensure that it is used in such an environment.

6 Vrms 

150 kHz to 80 

MHz in ISM bands

(V1) = 3 Vrms

(V1) = 6 Vrms in 

ISM bands

Portable and mobile RF communications 

equipment should be no closer to any part of 
the ClearChart 4P, including cables, than the 

recommended separation distance calcu-

lated from the equation applicable to the 

frequency of the transmitter.  

Recommended Separation Distance:

d=(3.5/V1)(Sqrt P)

d=(3.5/E1)(Sqrt P) 

80 to 800 MHz

d=(7/E1)(Sqrt P) 

800 MHz to 2.7 GHz

Where P is the max output power rating of 

the transmitter in watts (W) according to the 

transmitter manufacturer and d is the recom-

mended separation distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, 

as determined by an electromagnetic site 

survey, should be less than the compliance 

levels in each frequency range. 

Interference may occur in the vicinity  

of equipment marked with the following 

symbol.

Note 1:  At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

Note 2:  These guidelines may not apply in all situations.  Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption 

and reflection from structures, objects and people.

*  Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land 

mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically 

with accuracy.  To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic 

site survey should be considered.  The measured field strength in the location in which the ME Equipment or 

ME System should be observed to verify normal operation.  If abnormal performance is observed, additional 

measures many be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the ME Equipment or ME System.

*  Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less then [V1] V/m.

*  The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 0,15 MHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to 6,795 MHz; 

13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz to 40,70 MHz.  The amateur radio 

bands between 0,15 MHz and 80 MHz are 1,8 MHz to 2,0 MHz, 3,5 MHz to 4,0 MHz, 5,3 MHz to 5,4 MHz,  7 

MHz to 7,3 MHz, 10,1 MHz to 10,15 MHz, 14 MHz to 14,2 MHz, 18,07 MHz to 18,17 MHz, 21,0 MHz to 21,4
