Electromagnetic Compatibility
Electromagnetic Compliance
The Maxi 500 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 Maxi 500 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.
