RF emissions
CISPR 11
Group 1
The tbCOMPASS only uses RF energy for its internal
function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not
likely to cause any interference with nearby electronic equipment.
RF emissions
CISPR 11
Class B
The tbCOMPASS is suitable for use in all establishments,
including domestic establishments and those directly connected
to the public low-voltage power supply network that supplies
buildings used for domestic purposes.
