Barkey S-line
3.3 Safety information for environmental influences
WARNING
Medical electrical devices are subject to special safety meas-
ures with regard to EMC (electromagnetic compatibility).
Make sure that the device is installed and operated in accor-
dance with the EMC information contained in these instruc-
tions for use.
The influence of strong electromagnetic fields (eg through HF
treatment or surgical devices) can lead to malfunctions of the
Barkey S-line. In the event of such malfunctions, increase the
distance between the device that is malfunctioning and device
causing the malfunction, or do not operate the two devices at
the same time. The Barkey S-line functions perfectly within
the limit values of the standard EN 60601-1-2. The devices
may be influenced outside the limit values of the standard EN
60601-1-2.
The Barkey S-line may not be located directly next to or
stacked with other devices. If operations near to or stacked
with other devices are necessary, the Barkey S-line should be
observed in order to check its correct operation in this layout.
Portable and mobile HF communication devices, eg mobile
phones, can affect the devices.
The Barkey S-line may not be used in the vicinity of
-
flammable substances (eg gases, liquids),
- flammable mixtures of anaesthetics with air,
- flammable mixtures of anaesthetics with oxygen or nitrous
oxide
whose flash point is below 50°C. In particular, the Barkey S-
line may not be used in areas in which alcoholic disinfectants
and anaesthetics are used at the same time.
Only power cables supplied by Barkey GmbH & Co. KG that
are dimensioned for the device's mains voltage may be used.
Using accessories, converters or conductors with devices or
systems other than those indicated can lead to an increased
emission or a reduced immunity to interference of the device.
The Barkey S-line may not be used in the direct vicinity of
devices with high waste heat production.
The lines must be laid in such a way that interference with
other devices is safely avoided.
The device is ventilated from the back. The air supply must not
be obstructed by covering or blocking the ventilation slots on
the back of the device.
