Site Requirements
3.1.1.
Operation Environmental Requirements
The following environmental conditions are within system tolerances for operation:
Temperature:
10º C ~ 40º C
Relative Humidity:
30%~75%, non-condensing
Atmosphere Pressure:
700hPa ~ 1060hPa
Strong radiation sources or powerful electromagnetic waves (e.g. electro-magnetic waves from radio broadcasting) may
result in image ghosting or noise. The system should be isolated from such radiation sources or electromagnetic waves.
To prevent damage to the system, do not use in the following locations:
Exposed to direct sunlight
Subject to sudden changes in temperature
Dusty
Subject to vibration
Near heat generators
High humidity
NOTE:
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. The equipment may
cause radio frequency interference to other medical and non-medical devices and radio
communications. To provide reasonable protection against such interference, this product
complies with emissions limits for a Group 1, Class A Medical Devices Directive as stated in
IEC/EN 60601-1-2. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
If this equipment is found to cause interference (which may be determined by turning the
equipment on and off), the user (or qualified service personnel) should attempt to correct the
problem by one or more of the following measure(s):
• reorient or relocate the affected device(s)
• increase the separation between the equipment and the affected device
• power the equipment from a source different from that of the affected device
• consult the point of purchase or service representative for further suggestions.
