be necessary to perform a special electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) test.
1.4.4 Protection Against Magnetic and Electromagnetic Fields During
Operation and Mounting
Magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated by current-carrying conductors
or permanent magnets of electric motors represent a serious danger to persons
with heart pacemakers, metal implants and hearing aids.
Health hazard for persons with heart pacemakers, metal implants and hearing
aids in proximity to electric components!
●
Persons with heart pacemakers and metal implants are not allowed to enter
the following areas:
– Areas in which components of the electric drive and control systems are
mounted, commissioned and operated.
– Areas in which parts of motors with permanent magnets are stored, re-
paired or mounted.
●
If it is necessary for somebody with a heart pacemaker to enter such an area,
a doctor must be consulted prior to doing so. The noise immunity of implan-
ted heart pacemakers differs so greatly that no general rules can be given.
●
Those with metal implants or metal pieces, as well as with hearing aids, must
consult a doctor before they enter the areas described above.
