Electromagnetic Compliance
The
KWIKtrak Gate
has been tested for compliance with current regulatory standards regarding
its capacity to block EMI (electromagnetic interference) from external sources.
Nonetheless, some procedures can help reduce electromagnetic interferences:
• Use only ArjoHuntleigh cables and spare parts to avoid increased emissions or
decreased immunity which can compromise the correct functioning of the equipment.
• Ensure that other devices in patient-monitoring and / or life-support areas comply to
accepted emissions standards.
• Maximize the distance between electro-medical devices. High-powered devices may
produce EMI that can affect the ceiling lift. Refer to separation distance table further on in
this document.
For more information on how to manage the unit’s RF electromagnetic environment, please
consult the AMI TIR 18-1997 - Guidance on Electromagnetic Compatibility of Medical Devices for
Clinical / Biomedical Engineers.

RF emissions
CISPR 11
Group 1
The
KWIKtrak Gate
uses RF energy only for its internal
function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are
not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic
equipment.
