General safety instructions
Observe the instructions on electromagnetic compatibility (see Section
“EMC”, page 43).
Always connect the HF device to a mains power system with a protective
earth lead in order to prevent electric shock.
NOTE
The ARC PLUS device may only be operated with the ARC 350 (REF 900-351)
and ARC 400 (REF 900-400) HF generators with software version 1.0.0.4.16.8
or later.
Additional devices connected to electrical medical devices must satisfy relevant
IEC or ISO standards (e.g. IEC 60950 for data processing devices). Furthermore,
all configurations must comply with the standard requirements for medical systems
(see IEC 60601-1-1 or Section 16 of the third edition of IEC 60601-1, as relevant).
Anyone who connects additional devices to medical electrical devices is perforce a
system configurator and therefore responsible for meeting standardised system
requirements. Please note that local laws prevail over the aforementioned
standard requirements. In case of questions, please contact your local dealer or
service centre (see Section “Technical service”, page 39).
NOTE
Impairment of other devices.
Electromagnetic interference fields are generated during normal use of the
argon device.
Ensure that no electronic devices that may be impaired by electromagnetic
fields are placed in the vicinity of the argon and HF devices.
The following measures are advisable:
Place sensitive devices in a separate location.
Use separate mains power circuits.
Keep HF cables as short as reasonably possible.
Do not route HF cables and camera cables next to each other.
